In the last 2022 Mega Millions draw yesterday, no one won the jackpot of $640 million dollars, so the amount this Saturday amounted to $785 million.
The cash option for the above figure is $395 million.
However, it is expected that between now and Tuesday, January 3, the date of the next draw of the popular lottery game, the amount of the “jackpot” will increase.
The game of chance drawings are held every Tuesday and Friday at 11 pm ET.
The winning numbers for last night’s draw were: 1-3-6-44-51-7.
In the most recent spin, a person in Ohio won $1 million by matching five numbers.
The highest prize drawn in the Mega Millions this year was $1.337 million.
The money was claimed last September by two people in Illinois.
The duo, who chose to remain anonymous, split the prize.
The winning ticket contained the six numbers from the run on July 29; specifically, 13-36-45-57-67, and 14, the Mega Ball.
The winning ticket was purchased at a Speedway gas station on East Touhy Avenue in Des Plaines.
The lucky ones requested the money little by little so that the time limit for the disbursement option in a single payment would be met.
