Leandro DeJesus, of Marlborough, won the jackpot playing the “$2,000,000 50X Cashword," a $10 scratch-off ticket.
DeJesus took the lump sum payment of $1.3 million (before taxes) rather than the annuity.
He said he would use the money to help his family and purchase a home.
DeJesus bought the winning ticket at Post Road Pantry Convenience at 21 Boston Post Road E. in Marlborough. The store will get a $20,000 bonus for the sale.
