根据彩票网的报道，截止周二晚上，没有人得中“超级百万”全部六个数字，预计头奖奖池累计奖金将从3.63亿美元增加到4.76亿美元。
周二开出的中奖号码组合是9, 19, 34, 44, 51,特别号码是24。超级百万官方网站数据显示有47张彩票买中了5个数字组合，但是都与特别号码无缘，根据奖项设置，买中5个数字的奖金为25万美元。
大批的拉斯维加斯人在周二蜂拥到位于加利福尼亚和内华达交界处的普利姆彩票店，花1美元去买一张彩票来试试他们的有没有中大奖的好运气。“到这里买彩票的人相当疯狂”一位普利姆彩票店的经理说。据一位不愿透露姓名的彩票店雇员说，在普利姆外排队等候买彩票的队伍等了2个半小时，“这是一个巨奖，大家都很兴奋”。彩票销售截止到周二下午7点45分。“他们售出了大量的高价票，普利姆售出的彩票还没有中过大奖” 特拉维尔索所说的地方是加利福尼亚彩票销售排名前三的店。
周二的头奖金额在1996年超级百万上市以来排在第三位，加利福尼亚超级百万的发言人阿历克斯.特拉维尔索说，超级百万头奖中奖的几率是1.76亿分之一。
如果周二晚上无人中奖，那么周五的记录将被再次刷新，中奖预测是根据店面彩票销售进行的，因为周二没有彩票匹配所有6个数字，所以预计周五超级百万的头奖奖金将达到4.76亿美元。
如果谁得中周五的头奖，他可以选择一次性拿到3.41亿美元或是分26年来领取全额奖金。超级百万史上支付的最高奖金3.9亿美元是2007年中出，第二名3.8亿美元则是2011年中出，特拉维尔索说“事实上这些大奖都是分期支付的” 。

Nobody hits Mega Millions, pushing Friday’s jackpot to record $476 million
No one hit all six Mega Millions numbers pulled Tuesday night, upping the $363 million jackpot to an estimated record $476 million for Friday’s drawing, according to the lottery’s website.
Tuesday's winning combination was: 9, 19, 34, 44, 51 and Mega Ball No. 24, according to lottery officials.
According to the Mega Millions website, 47 tickets hit five numbers but were missing the Mega Ball number. The prize amount for matching the five numbers is $250,000.
Las Vegans flocked to Primm, on the California-Nevada border, on Tuesday to buy $1 tickets to try their luck at winning the jackpot.
“It’s pretty crazy out here,” said a Primm Valley Lotto Store manager.
The jackpot is the third largest since the multistate Mega Millions lottery started in 1996, said Alex Traverso, California spokesman for Mega Millions.
Traverso said the odds of winning Tuesday's jackpot were 1 in 176 million.
If anyone hits Friday's jackpot, the winner can decide between receiving the money in a lump sum of $341 million or the total amount over the course of 26 years, according to the lottery website.
The largest Mega Millions jackpot to date - $390 million - was won in 2007; the second-largest - $380 million - was awarded in January 2011.
“Both of those tickets were actually split,” Traverso said.
The line to buy tickets at the store outside Primm had a wait of about two and a half hours, according to an employee who declined to give his name.
“It’s a large jackpot and people are excited about playing,” Traverso said.
Ticket sales stopped at 7:45 p.m. Tuesday.
“They’ve sold plenty of high-dollar amount tickets,” said Traverso, adding that a ticket sold at the Primm store had never hit the Mega jackpot.
Traverso said the location was one of the top three California locations in terms of ticket sales.
If no one hits Tuesday night, “we’re going to obliterate the record on Friday,” Traverso said.
The estimated jackpot is based on ticket sales. Because no tickets matched all six numbers Tuesday, it is estimated the Mega Millions jackpot for Friday’s drawing will be about $476 million.
