Manuel Taveras Paulino of Creedmoor tried his luck on a $10 scratch-off and won a $1 million prize.

Paulino bought his lucky Jumbo Bucks ticket from the Family Fare on Guess Road in Durham.

When Paulino arrived at lottery headquarters Friday, he had a decision to make. He could choose to receive his prize as an annuity of $50,000 over 20 years or a lump sum of $600,000. He chose the lump sum of $600,000 and, after required tax withholdings, took home $393,000.

The Jumbo Bucks game debuted in August with eight $1 million top prizes. Six $1 million prizes remain to be claimed.

Great for him! Congrats! While I am here, i don't know where to go to make requests or suggestions, but if any lottery employee reads this, can someone pass along the request to have Keno and the new cash pop game available for purchase online? Please and thanks!NC Lottery
Thanks for sharing this feedback, Jennifer! We've heard from a few other players that this is something they're interested in seeing, and we'll be sure to pass this along to the folks in charge of decisions like this!

Congratulations!!! He won 1m but took home 300k after taxes? 600k is a lot of taxes to me. But 300k is a blessing to have afterwards.

Just curious. There's a post about another gent who won on the same kind of ticket, says he took home 429,000. Wondering if one post was an error or why the difference in the take home?NC Lottery
Hi there, Roger! An individual winner’s tax and financial obligations may vary at the time of claiming a prize. We recommend meeting with a tax professional before claiming a large prize.
