The Mega Millions jackpot has skyrocketed to an impressive estimated $800 million.

The winning numbers for the latest draw are 6, 23, 41, 59, and 63, with a Mega ball of 25. The Megaplier for Friday's draw was doubled.

The estimated $740 million jackpot was not claimed. Five lucky players have won an incredible $1 million each by matching all five white balls.

Congratulations to the lucky winner in Ohio who scored a whopping $2 million with the optional Megaplier! What an incredible stroke of luck.

The next drawing is scheduled for Tuesday and offers an incredible prize of $800 million.

The cash option for the grand prize amounts to a staggering $401.8 million. If won, it would be the prize for the seventh-largest Mega Millions jackpot.

Most winners prefer to receive the cash prize instead of annual payments.

The chances of winning the grand prize are incredibly slim, with odds of 1 in 302,575,350.

The most recent Mega Millions jackpot was won on June 4 in Illinois, with a staggering prize of $552 million.

Wow! Florida just hit the jackpot with a record-breaking Mega Millions win of $1.602 billion on Aug. 8, 2023.

Mega Millions is available in 45 states, as well as Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
