"I was out with my mom and playing Club Keno," the player said. "My mom told me that the Fast Cash jackpot was more than $1.6 million and suggested I give that game a try."
The woman said some early luck at the Lucky 7s Fast Cash game led her to try again.
"I bought a couple tickets and won a few bucks and decided to buy one more with my winnings. That was when I won the jackpot. I was so excited; I really wasn't sure how to react," she said. "I called the bar owner over and told him I had won and asked him to scan the ticket for me. He confirmed that I had won, and I just couldn't believe what was happening."
The ticket was a $1,682,998 jackpot winner.
The winner said the prize money will allow her to buy a new house, pay off student loans and take her son on a trip to Disney World. The rest will go into savings, she said.
