A Wayne County resident has claimed a record-setting $677,141 prize from the Club Keno The Jack game. The winner, who chose to remain anonymous, matched nine numbers in draw 2438250: 07-14-42-44-52-61-62-63-69. The winning ticket was purchased at JP’s Trolley Stop on Pelham Road in Taylor.

This prize is the largest ever won in the Club Keno game, surpassing the previous record of $503,254 won in August 2023 at Fletcher’s Pub #2 in Kalamazoo.

“I don’t usually play The Jack, but when I saw how high it had gotten I decided I better give it a shot,” said the 54-year-old winner. “When I checked the ticket on my phone and saw I won, I immediately left the bar. It was overwhelming and emotional to win such a huge amount of money!”

The winner visited Lottery headquarters to claim his prize and plans to use the winnings for a vacation, home renovations, and investments.

The Jack is an add-on game for Club Keno that costs $1 per draw. Players receive nine easy pick numbers to match with those drawn in Club Keno. Prizes range from $1 up to the jackpot, which starts at $10,000 and increases until it is won by matching all nine numbers.

Club Keno can be played at 10,500 Lottery retailers across Michigan with drawings every three and a half minutes. Results are available online at MichiganLottery.com.
