Mega Millions Rolls to $965 Million as EuroMillions’ £95 Million Also Goes Unclaimed

Built-in multipliers delivered several million-dollar secondary prizes despite no jackpot hits.

Overview

  • Tuesday’s Mega Millions draw produced numbers 10, 13, 40, 42, 46 and Mega Ball 1 with no jackpot winner, lifting Friday’s prize to an estimated $965 million, or $445.3 million cash.
  • The run will reach a record 40th drawing since the last jackpot on June 27, with odds of the top prize about 1 in 290.5 million.
  • Non-jackpot payouts were sizable, including a $5 million 5X ticket in Arizona and $3 million 3X tickets in Iowa and New York, among 809,030 winning tickets.
  • A winner would choose 30-year annuity payments or the cash option, with federal withholding cutting a lump sum immediately and possible state taxes further reducing take-home.
  • EuroMillions’ £95 million draw also had no jackpot match; the numbers were 4, 22, 32, 36, 47 with Lucky Stars 2 and 10, and one UK ticket won £24,455.50 for matching five numbers.
