The Mega Millions jackpot climbed to an estimated $1.05 billion after no one managed to beat the massive odds and match the lottery game<\/a>\u2019s six numbers drawn Friday night.<\/p>\n

The numbers drawn Friday night were: 5, 10, 28, 52, 63 and the gold ball 18.<\/p>\n

The lack of a winner of Friday\u2019s $940 million jackpot means there have been 29 straight draws without a winner. The last time someone won a Mega Millions jackpot was April 18.<\/p>\n

The $1.05 billion prize up for grabs in the next drawing Tuesday night would be for a sole winner choosing to be paid through an annuity<\/a>, with annual payments over 30 years. Jackpot winners almost always opt for a lump sum payment, which for Tuesday\u2019s drawing would be an estimated $527.9 million.<\/p>\n

While no one won the Mega Millions jackpot, it has been less than two weeks since someone in Los Angeles<\/a> won a $1.08 billion Powerball prize that ranked as the sixth-largest in U.S. history. The winner of the prize is still a mystery.<\/p>\n

Lottery jackpots grow so large because the odds of winning are so small. For Mega Millions, the odds of winning the jackpot are about 1 in 302.6 million.<\/a><\/p>\n

Winners also would be subject to federal taxes, and many states also tax lottery winnings.<\/p>\n

Mega Millions is played in 45 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
