Another $100,000 Rhode Island Keno Winner

On Sunday, one lucky Keno player hit big at Wright’s Farm Restaurant in Harrisville!  The winning ticket was a $5-10 spot wager placed over five games.  So, each game was a $1-10 spot wager.  In one of these five games, the player matched all ten of his or her numbers.  The standard payout for this type of win is $100,000.  This big ticket has yet to be claimed.

Just a few weeks ago, on February 29th, a Johnston woman claimed a $105,000 winning Keno ticket.  She played a one dollar eight spot bet and matched all eight numbers.  The standard payout for this type of win is $10,500.  However, this player opted to purchase the Keno Plus feature for an additional dollar on the wager, so the $10,500 prize was multiplied by ten, that draw’s Keno Plus number, to equal $105,000.

The $105,000 winning ticket was purchased from Don’s Market at 1219 Atwood Ave., Johnston.
