Keno
Produces Record-Breaking Sales Week
BALTIMORE – (Baltimore)
– The Maryland Lottery continues to break records, this time with
Keno. Last week’s Keno sales topped $9.37 million,
making it the highest sales week for that game during a non-Keno
promotion period. Total Keno sales were up by more than
$3 million when compared with sales from the same period last year.
The increase is due largely to the introduction of the new Keno
Super Bonus feature, which launched for the first time
on June 1st.
“During its
inaugural week, the Keno Super Bonus produced $3.1
million in sales,” said Lottery Director Buddy Roogow. “We are
extremely excited about this new feature that allows players to win
even more.”
The Keno
Super Bonus can be added to any Keno ticket for an
additional $2 per play. Once added, winners can multiply their
prizes by up to 20 times and are guaranteed to multiply their
winnings at least twice.
