Mr Roberts chose to take a lump sum for five of the tickets - earning nearly $2m (£1.6m) in total.For the sixth ticket, he chose the annuity option - meaning he will also get 20 annual payments of $25,000.The lottery awards a set amount for correctly drawing five balls, as Mr Roberts did, meaning multiple wins with the same numbers are possible.The veteran, of Fall River, 50 miles (80km) south of Boston, picked up his winnings on 15 December.Lucky for Life was the game Mr Roberts played, and indeed that's what some might call him."
