- Jackpots Top 900 Million! This is The Lottery Rundown for Saturday October 10th Mega Millions drew Friday night with 2, 7, 16, 63 and 70, plus Mega Ball 8, and nobody matched all six numbers. Seventy, one of the five least-drawn white balls over the past six years, returned after 20 drawings away. Did you miss 70 during its 20-draw vacation? Two was gone even longer, sitting out 21 drawings, so punctuality was not the evening’s theme. Tuesday’s jackpot climbs to 385 million dollars, with a cash value of 154 million 800 thousand dollars. That could fund a professional baseball league where every concession stand serves tasting menus and the seventh-inning stretch gets a string quartet. The jackpot has now rolled through 21 drawings and 73 days without a winner, a little longer than average but still within familiar territory. Moving to Powerball, the last draw was Wednesday, October 7, with 11, 13, 14, 21 and 65, plus Powerball 19 and a 2X multiplier. No ticket hit the jackpot. Eleven returned after 15 drawings away, while 65 came back after an 11-draw absence. Tonight’s jackpot is 516 million dollars, with a cash value of 211 million 600 thousand dollars. The run stands at 24 drawings and 56 days without a jackpot winner, while the prize itself has cleared half a billion.
