Rosa Sanchez of Rocky Point tried her luck on a $10 scratch-off ticket and won a $1 million top prize.

Sanchez bought her lucky 50X The Cash ticket from PMG PM on N.C. 210 in Rocky Point.

When Sanchez arrived at lottery headquarters Monday, she had a decision to make. She could choose to receive the prize as an annuity of $50,000 over 20 years or a lump sum of $600,000. She chose the lump sum of $600,000 and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $429,003.

The 50X The Cash game debuted in February with six top prizes of $1 million. Two $1 million prizes remain to be claimed.
