A female player from Freeland has won the biggest prize in The Jack since the add-on game to Club Keno was introduced in June 2009. Reggie Snead travelled to Lottery Central in Lansing on November 9th, 2009 to claim the $108,927 dollars cash prize.
The progressive jackpot had been steadily getting bigger since it was last won on October 29th, 2009. Snead caught the winning digits on the Club Keno video monitor and after realizing the she hit the correct numbers, she turned and quietly get out of the establishment. The lucky player says that she is planning a part of her prize money to fix her truck. The winning ticket was bought at the Log Cabin, 181 S. Main St. in Freeland.
The Jack is considered an add-on game to Club Keno and gives gamers a new option to win when they play Club Keno. The jackpot begins at $2,000 dollars and grows after each draw until it is won by a player. The more money gamers bet on the game, the more the jackpot increases. The Jack costs one dollar extra per bet.
Seven Easy Pick digits from one to eighty will be printed on the lower part of their ticket. Players win if they are able to match all seven of their Jack digits to the Club Keno winning digits drawn. Should multiple gamers win The Jack on one draw, the prize is divided evenly among the winning players.
