ST. CLAIR SHORES (WWJ) -- A Macomb County man is looking forward to living comfortably after winning over $250,000 from the Michigan Lottery.
The lucky player, who chose to remain anonymous, matched his easy pick Club Keno The Jack numbers -- 3-4-6-26-35-37-43-52 -- to eight of the 20 Club Keno numbers drawn, winning $265,459.
He bought his winning ticket at Z's Pub, located at 22512 Greater Mack Avenue in Saint Clair Shores.
"I play Club Keno often and like to add The Jack to my ticket when it gets high," said the 54-year-old player. "I purchased a ticket when I got to Z's Pub and noticed a few minutes later The Jack had reset to $10,000. I thought: 'Darn it, not again,' because the last few times I've played The Jack, someone had won it shortly after. I started looking my ticket over and couldn't believe it when I saw I was the big winner."
He said winning this money is "life-changing" and will allow him to live comfortably -- not having to stress about finances.
With his winnings, he plans to pay off his home and then save the remainder.
