Wayne Murray, an American, may well be considered the world’s luckiest lottery player, having clinched ten million dollars twice, thanks to two separate wins in a scratchcard game.
Ever wondered about the secret to luck – is it a rabbit’s foot, a four-leaf clover, or perhaps a magic amulet?
Wayne Murray seems to have uncovered the formula, establishing himself as possibly the luckiest person on the planet.
In a remarkable turn of events, just 16 months after securing his initial $10 million prize in the ‘200X’ scratchcard game, Wayne, a resident of Brooklyn, has struck gold once again, winning the same substantial amount in another scratchcard game.
Consider this: the odds of his first win were an astounding 1 in 3.6 million. Surprisingly, the stars aligned again, with the probability of hitting the jackpot a second time calculated at 1 in 3.5 million.
Achieving a double win in quick succession is a rare feat. Little wonder Wayne Murray is sporting a grin from ear to ear.
Interestingly, Wayne attributes part of his success to the manager of a small petrol station in Brooklyn – his preferred spot for purchasing winning games.
According to Hassan Nabil, an employee at the shop, «He’s a regular customer. He’s very friendly and generous. After his first win, he could have easily left the neighborhood, but he chose to stay. Money changes a lot of people, but he remains humble, keeping his feet on the ground and staying true to himself», as shared with the New York Post.
