A Clermont County resident has won $800,020 playing Ohio Keno through Lotto.com, the online lottery platform announced. The prize, claimed by Courtney S. after an August 2026 drawing, is the largest Keno win through Lotto.com since the game was introduced to the platform earlier this year. It also ranks among the largest online Keno prizes ever awarded in the United States.
Courtney, a nurse, used the platform’s Quick Pick feature before replacing two generated numbers with her lucky numbers, 14 and 26. She discovered the win before her work shift and spent nearly an hour in disbelief before telling her mother. Her husband only believed the news after seeing the winning ticket. A longtime Lotto.com customer for Powerball and Mega Millions, she discovered Keno on the platform. She plans to become debt-free and buy a convertible.
“Stories like Courtney’s highlight what makes the lottery experience so engaging,” said Thomas Metzger, CEO of Lotto.com. “Whether customers come to Lotto.com for Powerball and Mega Millions, order scratch tickets, or discover games like Keno for the first time, our goal is to make it easy and convenient to explore new ways to play. We’re proud to connect new players to these games and generate incremental profits for education in the Buckeye State.”
Ohio Keno is a draw-style game offering multiple chances to win throughout the day. The Ohio Lottery has generated over $35 billion since 1974 for K-12 education.
