The latest Mega Millions grand prize went unclaimed, which means the jackpot will grow to $94 million with a cash value of $66 million.
The next jackpot drawing will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 19. Following the Tuesday night drawing, a player from New York hit the Match 5, winning $1 million. If the player would have matched five numbers with the 3X Megaplier, they would have won $3 million.
There were 13 players who hit the Match 4 plus gold Mega Ball and won $10,000 each. Meanwhile, there were only three players who matched four numbers plus gold Mega Ball with the Megaplier, winning $30,000.
The rest of the Mega Millions wins from the night ranged between $2 and $1,500.
Lottery winners can choose to receive their winnings through either a one-time lump sum payment or an annuity. Those who select the annuity receive one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments, which increase by 5% each year.
Mega Millions can be played in 45 states as well as the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
