The jackpot for Friday's Mega Millions lottery climbed to $52 million after no players matched all six numbers in Tuesday night's drawing.

Meanwhile, a $101 million top prize is up for grabs in Wednesday night's Powerball multi-state lottery.

Two players in California and Texas matched the first five numbers in Tuesday night's Mega Millions drawing -- 17, 18, 24, 35 and 39 -- but not the Mega Ball, which was 18. Those players each won $250,000.
