BROOKLYN, N.Y. — A half-million-dollar windfall is headed to one lucky New York Lottery player after a top-prize PICK 10 ticket was sold in Brooklyn for Tuesday evening’s drawing.
The winning ticket, worth $500,000, was purchased at Fifth Avenue Convenience, located at 7520 5th Avenue. The prize comes from the May 20 PICK 10 drawing, one of the lottery’s daily games offering high-value payouts.
PICK 10 draws 20 winning numbers from a field of 1 to 80 each night around 8:30 p.m. Players select 10 numbers, and top-prize winners must match all 10. The game remains a popular choice for its flat payout structure and large prize potential.
The New York Lottery has not released the identity of the winning player. Prize claims can be submitted up to one year from the draw date.

The New York Lottery remains the most profitable in North America, contributing over $3.8 billion last fiscal year to support public schools across the state.
