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.

Now that Murray won the $10 million, the New York lottery said there is only one more top prize left.
