"This prize came at the right time."Mariah Williams, 18, of New Britain won $10,000 playing Keno thanks to a tip she was given a long time ago. "My nana said that whenever you see a number more than once in the same day, write it down. It's probably a lucky number," Mariah told lottery officials. When Mariah played Keno with her seven "lucky" numbers, she made a 7-spot match. Her original $5,000 prize was multiplied by 2, the Bonus Multiplier number drawn, for a total prize of $10,000. "This prize came at the right time," Mariah said. "It paid for my college tuition!"
