It's unclear if she chose to take the winnings as a one-time lump sum. The game's overall odds of winning are one in 4.01.

Just a week ago, there were some other Jacksonville lotto winners. A Jacksonville man took a $2 million lump sum playing the Gold Rush Classic scratch-off. A 74-year-old Jacksonville woman hit the $4.5 million jackpot playing the Florida Lotto.
