The woman, from Adelaide, Australia, was left shocked when she checked her slip for the Keno Spot 9 jackpot draw last Saturday.

“After I got my nails done, I went to Woolworths to pick up some groceries and I came back to check my Keno Spot 9 ticket at the local newsagency.
“I thought I broke the lottery machine when I went to scan my ticket because it came up something I’ve never seen before – something out of the ordinary!
“The team member reassured me that I didn’t break the machine and it was actually a $150,000 win! It’s the most I’ve ever won.
“It’s very exciting,” she added.
