A Tasmanian pub-goer is unknowingly holding a winning TasKeno ticket worth close to half a million dollars.
The lucky $495,261.55 winning ticket was purchased on Monday morning at the Elwick Hotel in Glenorchy for game 7695.

A spokesperson for the hotel said the lucky person left the pub before checking their ticket.
They urged everyone who played the game at their venue yesterday to find their ticket and come forward.
“We’re hoping they get a very big surprise when they check their Keno ticket,” they said.
The winner has seven years to claim their winnings under Tasmanian law before unclaimed prizes go to the State Government.
In March, motorcyclist Debbie pocketed $553,146.05 in TasKeno at the Campbell Town Hotel Motel.
