Jasper man wins $100,000 on Suwannee scratch-off ticket

A Jasper man recently hit it big when he won $100,000 on a $5 scratch-off ticket purchased at the S & P Food Store on Helvenston Street in Live Oak.

Cheston Selph, the winner, claimed his prize on Sept. 15, according to Florida Lottery records.

Selph, 21, reportedly played the Power 8's, a game where players reveal one "8" symbol within a game and win prizes shown for that game. By revealing two "8" symbols, players win triple the prize shown for that game, according to lottery game rules. If a star symbol is revealed, a player wins all 12 prizes automatically. Its wasn't clear which method Selph scratched to win.

Cheston Selph is the son of Buddy Selph, an employee at Corbett's Mobile Home Sales in Live Oak. Currently, 21-year-old Selph is a student at Valdosta State University.
