Kilsyth Keno win

A Kilsyth Keno player has confessed discovering his Keno Mega Millions 7 Spot win first thing on Sunday morning was the ‘nicest way to wake up’.

The anonymous Kilsyth player held a Keno Mega Millions 7 Spot winning entry in game 332 on Sunday 2 February 2020, scoring a $50,305.40 prize.

Sharing his excitement with a Keno official today, the overjoyed winner recounted how he came to discover his win.

“It was very surprising. I’ve never won anything like this before.” he exclaimed.

“I play a couple of games of Keno every now and again and I put a few bets on before I went to sleep early Sunday morning.

“I checked my app when I woke up later on Sunday morning and discovered I had won.

“It was a nice surprise to wake up to.”

When asked how he planned to enjoy his fun money, the happy winner said he was going to fast-track his car upgrade.

“My car needs a bit of work and I’ve been thinking of getting it done for a while now,” he explained.

“This win will fast track those improvements and then I will have to think about what to do with the rest.

“There might be a holiday down the track too. I will just have to wait and see.”

The happy man purchased his Keno Mega Millions 7 Spot entry on the Keno app.
