Yokeswaran Mylvaganam of Pickering knows how to pick ‘em, at least on DAILY KENO 8 Pick, where his selection resulted in a $50,000 win in the July 23 evening draw.

“I’m a regular lottery player and DAILY KENO is my favourite game,” shared Yokeswaran, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his winnings.

The automotive industry worker discovered his big win while checking his ticket at the store. “I didn’t believe it, so I checked it again. Then I still thought it was wrong, so I checked it on my phone. Even after that, I checked number by number – then I believed it!”

The 66-year-old father plans to pay some bills and share his win with his children.

“It’s a happy feeling!”

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.

The winning ticket was purchased at Daisy Mart on Kingston Road in Pickering.
