Stacey Miller of Southport took a chance on a Carolina Keno ticket and won a $112,500 prize.
Miller’s big win occurred Feb. 2 at Eshangi BP on Southport Supply Road in Southport.
Carolina Keno lets you choose how many numbers, or spots, you play and your choice determines your odds and the prize you play for.
Miller bought a $40 ticket and played for five shares. After matching seven of seven numbers and winning $4,500, her prize grew to $112,500 when the 5X multiplier was drawn.
She claimed her prize Wednesday at lottery headquarters and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $80,686.
