It's the special prize that pays $25,000; the regular 8-spot pays $15,000, which is still higher than most 4 or 5 minute Keno payouts. It looks the Oregon game pays considerably more for matching all the numbers starting with their 6-spot compared to smaller number matches payouts in other states.

I'm thinking about sending a copy of the Oregon Keno payout table to the KY Lottery with a hint, hint .

Congrats on the 8 of 8 hit!

I have hit 7 of 8 playing NY's Quick Draw keno type game. That pays $550

They pay $25,000 in Oregon for 8of8 but only $10,000 in NY for the same 8of8...What a rip-off.

Also, OR pays $1 mil for 10 of 10 while NY only pays $100,000.
