Robert Taylor bought his lucky Keno lottery ticket at the Atlantic Café on Plain Street in Taunton using his usual set of numbers, one through 11, according to the Massachusetts State Lottery. His choice of numbers paid off on Wednesday, March 22 when the Keno game drawing won him a before-tax windfall of half of a million dollars.

Wednesday's drawing also awarded four other prizes, including one $1 million prize and three $100,000 prizes. The $1 million prize, purchased at Zenner’s Pub & Deli, located at 303 Tyler Street in Pittsfield, remains unclaimed.

This is the first time in the Keno game's history that a $1 million prize was won.

The $100,000 winners are:

Edward O’Neil Jr., who bought his ticket at Ashland TJ’s Food & Spirits on Union Street in Ashland
Patricia Johnson, who bought her ticket at Falmouth Papa Jake’s on Sandwich Road in East Falmouth
Cathleen Yessayan, who bought her ticket at the West Roxbury 7-Eleven on Winchester Street in Newton
