Powerball, Mega Millions reach combined total of nearly $1.3 billion

(WKBN) — Jackpots in America’s two biggest lottery games are now at a combined total of nearly $1.3 billion.

The Mega Millions game is now at $560 million after no ticket matched all six numbers in Tuesday’s drawing. The estimated cash prize for the next drawing on Friday, July 14, is $281.1 million. 

The winning numbers were 10, 17, 33, 51, and 64, plus the gold Mega Ball 5.

The Powerball jackpot continues its rise up the record charts reaching an estimated $725 million for the next drawing on Wednesday night, July 12. The cash option for the jackpot is an estimated $366.2 million. 

The current jackpot has been growing since mid-April when someone in Ohio won the $252.6 million prize.

Powerball is played in 45 states, as well as Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET.
