“I plan to finish the bathroom and fix up the car,” was Paul Andrews’ response to what plans he had for his $47,574 Keno Rolling Jackpot Bonus prize.
Paul, a Portland resident, played his eight-spot Keno ticket for 10 consecutive games, at Rovon Inn Tavern, in Portland. In the fifth game on his ticket, Paul matched all eight of his numbers, for a $15,000 prize. Paul also won a $32,570 eight-spot Rolling Jackpot Bonus. Adding in the $4 Paul won on two other games, he had a total prize of $47,574.
Paul was playing his wife, Rosalind’s, Keno numbers. Rosalind chose her numbers based on family birthdays and ages. “We’ve won a number of times on these numbers,” said Paul, adding that their previous biggest prize won was $604.
