Maryland Lottery Player Wins Big on Birthday

**Baltimore, MD** – A Maryland Lottery player from New Carrollton celebrated her birthday with a $100,008 win while playing Keno on November 14. She collected her prize at the Lottery headquarters in Baltimore this Sunday.

The Prince George’s County resident has been participating in the Maryland Lottery since 1985. Previously, she had won $20,000 on a scratch-off ticket and has claimed straight wins three times on Pick 4. Her recent Keno win marks her largest victory.

In the late 1990s, the winner regularly played 3-, 4-, and 5-spot Keno games. More recently, she has bet on a 10-spot selection for 10 games at a time, a choice that yielded her significant winnings at Zach’s Liquor in Hyattsville on her birthday.

Her plans for the prize money include purchasing a new car, investing in home renovations, saving, and potentially traveling to Las Vegas. Zach’s Liquor, where the winning ticket was purchased, will also receive a $1,000 bonus.
