Mega Millions Jackpot Climbs to $965 Million After No Winner, Record 40th Drawing Set for Friday

The surge follows April rule changes that raised ticket prices to $5 with built-in multipliers, boosting non-jackpot payouts.

Overview

  • Tuesday’s numbers were 10, 13, 40, 42, 46 and Mega Ball 1, and no ticket matched all six.
  • The lump-sum cash option for Friday’s prize is estimated at $445.3 million before taxes.
  • The Nov. 11 drawing produced about 809,030 winning tickets worth more than $27.9 million, including a $5 million 5X Match 5 in Arizona and $3 million 3X wins in Iowa and New York.
  • Friday’s drawing will be the 40th in a row without a jackpot win since June 27 in Virginia, with jackpot odds roughly 1 in 290,472,336.
  • The $965 million pot ranks as the game’s eighth-largest to date, with the next drawing scheduled for Friday, Nov. 14 at 11 p.m. ET.
