Overview

• Tuesday’s Mega Millions numbers were 17, 26, 33, 45, 56 with Mega Ball 19, and no ticket matched all six to win the jackpot.
• The next Mega Millions drawing is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 10, with an advertised $575 million annuity and a published $264.6 million cash option.
• For a cash-option winner, the $264.6 million payout would be reduced to about $201.1 million after the 24% federal withholding, with possible additional taxes depending on residence.
• Two substantial non-jackpot Mega Millions tickets were sold in California—worth $302,035 (La Crescenta) and $241,628 (Bakersfield)—and an Ohio ticket won $20,000.
• EuroMillions’ Oct. 7 draw (24, 39, 42, 43, 48; Lucky Stars 5, 8) produced no jackpot winner, lifting Friday’s prize to an estimated £25 million, while Canada’s Lotto Max awarded a $15 million jackpot to a ticket sold in Edmonton.
