NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) – A Brooklyn man won $10 million from a New York Lottery scratch-off this week marking his second win within little over a year, according to lottery officials.

Previously, Murray won $10 million playing the Black Titanium game in August, 2022.

Murray purchased both winning tickets from the same store, H&A Gas & Convenience on Avenue H in Flatbush.

For his latest win, he chose a lump sum payment, receiving just over $6 million after taxes, mirroring the payout option he selected for his first win last year.

When approached by 1010 WINS, Murray requested privacy from the media.
The odds of winning the 200X scratch-off game are 1 in 3.64 million, and for the Black Titanium game, they are 1 in 3.53 million, according to lottery officials.

"It feels very humbling and liberating,” Murray had told lottery officials last year.
