Eugene Hunt of Raleigh took a chance on a $20 scratch-off ticket and won a $100,000 prize.

Hunt bought his lucky 100X The Cash ticket from Butner Family Fare on Central Avenue in Butner. He claimed his prize at lottery headquarters Monday and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $71,256.

great win! When will pick3 and pick 4 begin online? Lets say you win four pick 3 tickets exact for a dollar each online play, will there be taxes? I would like to see an option to add small winnings to our wallet just like the vending machines. This would be super. Also online scratch off tickets. Thanks!NC Lottery

And when you win online, prizes of under $600 are automatically deposited into your account! So you could keep those winnings in your wallet or withdraw them to your bank account.

Congratulations on your big win! I'm going to have to do something different, can't win on draw games, might have to start spending my money on scratch offs it looks like. But not going to do it here in my county, will have to go off to Moore County and to Fayetteville to purchase them. There are more winners in the other counties, than they are in my county.
