A New York man is making winning $10 million into an annual event.
Wayne Murray of Brooklyn won $10 million playing the New York Lottery's 200X scratch-off game on Tuesday, the lottery said. Last year on Aug. 22, Murray won $10 million playing the Black Titanium game.
He bought each ticket at the same exact store, an H&A Gas & Convenience in Brooklyn.
Murray opted to get his latest winnings in one lump sum, which turned out to be just over $6 million after taxes.
What is New York's 200X?
200X is an instant lottery game in New York and California where players can win up to $10 million.
Now that Murray won the $10 million, the New York lottery said there is only one more top prize left.
What are the odds of winning New York 200X?
The overall odds of winning any prize in the game are about one in 2.71. The odds of winning the top prize are one in 3,041,187.
