Mega Millions jackpot rolls over to $86 million

The jackpot for Friday's Mega Millions drawing climbed to $86 million after no players matched all six numbers in Tuesday night's game.

Six players matched the first five numbers drawn Tuesday -- 6, 29, 38, 50 and 51 -- but not the Mega Ball, which was 39. Those tickets, sold in California, Illinois, New York and North Carolina, are worth $250,000 each.

The top prize in Wednesday night's Power Ball drawing is $25 million.
