TORONTO – Vanheang Phan of Guelph knows how to pick ‘em. Vanheang’s Daily Keno 8 Pick resulted in a $50,000 win in the March 21, 2021 evening draw.
Vanheang, a 39-year-old mother, said when she scanned her ticket using the OLG Lottery App, she thought it was a promotion. “I was very happy – I was with my mom and sister and we were all cheering so loud my son thought something was wrong.”
She plans to share with family, purchase a laptop for her son and set the rest aside. “I feel so happy!”
OLG is currently booking in-person prize claim appointments at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto only for those claims that require a face-to-face interview. Customers with prizes over $50,000 are asked to call 1-800-387-0098 to discuss available prize claim options.
Prize claims up to $49,999.90 should continue to be submitted by mail. The health and safety of our customers and employees remains our top priority and OLG looks forward to providing future updates on the further availability of in-person prize claims.
Daily Keno players pick their strategy (from a 2 Pick to a 10 Pick) and pick their bet ($1, $2, $5 or $10) to pick their prize. Visit the Daily Keno page on OLG.ca for more information.
The winning ticket was purchased at Hasty Market on Eastview Road in Guelph.
