Bonus boon for Burnaby grandmother

Richmond, B.C., May 8, 2009 – PlayNow Keno player Alzira Armas's decision to play the Bonus paid off big time!

The 54-year-old grandmother from Burnaby won a cool $10,000 playing Keno Bonus on PlayNow.com.

"I was playing online and saw that I won and I couldn't believe it," said Alzira, who works as a Support Services Supervisor at a care home for seniors.

"I think of myself as lucky, and I've won a few smaller amounts before – one-hundred dollars here and there – but never this much money. I'm very happy!"

Alzira plans to use her winnings to "pay off some bills".

Available on PlayNow.com, Keno is a BC-only lottery game with a new draw every five minutes. Match up to 10 numbers from the 20 numbers drawn to win.

Keno Bonus, which can only be played in conjunction with Keno, offers players a chance to multiply their Keno winnings by 3, 4, 5, or 10 times.
