Next draw will be on Tuesday

Mega Millions lottery could reach US$5.75bn, the third largest prize in U.S. history

After the last draw of the US lottery Mega Millions, no one hit all six numbers and won the prize, bringing the value to about US$ 5.75 billion before the next draw on Tuesday (10) night. The prize is now the third largest in the history of the United States. Brazilians can also bet.

The numbers drawn on Friday (6) night were: 3, 20, 46, 59, 63 and the Golden Mega Ball was number 13. With this, there were 24 draws without a winner of the hefty, which already extends for more than two months. The odds of taking the main prize are 1 in 302.6 million.

Mega Millions works differently than the Brazilian lottery. The winner has the option to choose between two ways to receive the amount:

*The total amount over 29 years, however, in annual installments (US$ 38m).

*Receive at the time, but approximately 50% of the total amount. On this occasion, US$ 483.5 million.

In the next draw, scheduled for Tuesday (10), the amount that can be received in one payment is US$568.7 million.

The winners of the bet are also subject to federal and state taxes, which also leads to the reduction of the prize. Bets can be placed from outside the United States.
