Shelby Township, MI – A 65-year-old Shelby Township woman turned a routine lunch break into a life-changing moment after winning a record-breaking $822,159 Club Keno “The Jack” prize.
Sue Strong matched her easy pick The Jack numbers — 10-26-33-50-56-58-60-67-70 — to nine of the 20 numbers drawn in draw 2569809, securing the largest The Jack prize ever awarded in the Club Keno game.
Strong purchased her ticket at Party Palace Liquor Inc, located at 49133 Schoenherr Road in Shelby Township.
“I regularly play Club Keno, and I always add The Jack to my ticket,” Strong said. “I went out and bought a Club Keno ticket and pizza on my lunch break and then watched the drawings on my phone while I ate. When I saw all my The Jack numbers come in and the jackpot reset to $10,000, I was shocked. It was nerve wracking and exciting, and to be honest, I’ve hardly slept since.”
Strong later visited Michigan Lottery headquarters to claim her prize. She plans to share some of the winnings with family, pay off bills, and save the rest.
