The Mega Millions jackpot prize now sits at an estimated $820 million after no players claimed to match all numbers since April.
The numbers drawn Tuesday night were 3, 5, 6, 44 and 61 with a Mega ball of 25. The multiplier was 4X.
If there is a winner, that player can choose to receive the $820 million jackpot in installments or a lump-sum payment of $422 million, Mega Millions said.
The massive jackpot is the eighth-largest U.S. lottery prize and follows after a lucky winner won the Powerball lottery last week for over a billion dollars.
No one matched all five numbers plus the Mega Ball in the Friday, July 21, drawing, so the jackpot climbed a whopping $100 million to $820 million.
The last Mega Millions jackpot-winning ticket was sold on April 14, matching all six numbers to win the grand prize of $483 million or a lump-sum prize of $256.9 million. The jackpot has continued to rise since then.
