Macomb County Woman Wins Record-Breaking Club Keno Prize

SHELBY TOWNSHIP, MI — A Shelby Township woman won a record-breaking $822,159 on a Club Keno ticket, according to Michigan Lottery officials.

Sue Strong, 65, bought her winning Club Keno ticket at Party Palace Liquor Inc, located at 49133 Schoenherr Road in Shelby Township, officials said.

The ticket matched her easy pick The Jack numbers (10-26-33-50-56-58-60-67-70) to nine of the 20 Club Keno numbers drawn in draw 2569809.

"I went out and bought a Club Keno ticket and pizza on my lunch break and then watched the drawings on my phone while I ate," Strong said. "When I saw all my The Jack numbers come in and the jackpot reset to $10,000, I was shocked! It was nerve-wracking and exciting, and to be honest, I’ve hardly slept since!"

With her winnings, she told lottery officials she plans to share with family, pay bills and then save the remainder.

The $822,159 The Jack prize is the largest ever won on the Club Keno game. The previous Club Keno The Jack record was $677,141. That prize was won in March 2025 at JP’s Trolley Stop, located at 8820 Pelham Road in Taylor.
