Deneisha Jackson of Norfolk, Va., took a chance on a $50 scratch-off and won a $100,000 prize.
Jackson bought her lucky $10 Million Spectacular ticket from the Hop-In on Caratoke Highway in Grandy.
She arrived at lottery headquarters Wednesday to claim her prize and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $71,514.
The $10 Million Spectacular game debuted in December with five top prizes of $10 million, 20 prizes of $1 million and 20 prizes of $100,000. Three $10 million prizes, six $1 million prizes and six $100,000 prizes remain to be claimed.
