The jackpot for Friday's Mega Millions drawing jumped to $76 million after no players matched all six numbers drawn Tuesday night, but if that's not enough for you, the top prize is more than double that for Wednesday's Powerball multi-state lottery.
Six players, three in New York, two in Michigan and one in California, matched the first five numbers drawn Tuesday night -- 15, 22, 23, 48 and 55 -- but not the "Mega Ball," which was 31, and won $250,000 each.
The top prize for Wednesday's Powerball game has climbed to $155 million. That jackpot has been building since Jan. 22, when a player in New York won $122 million.
