has won $1 million or more in a Scratcher lottery for the second time in four months.

Ernest Pullen, 57, of Bonne Terre, Mo., won his first million in June then scored again this week by hitting the $2 million prize.
Since he opted for an immediate cash payout in both cases, he took home $700,000 for the first win and $1.3 million for the second, before taxes, KSDK reports.
Pullen says he considers himself to be a "lucky guy" but doesn't expect to strike gold for a third time.
"My wife said she's winning the next time," he says.
