Yet again, the Mega Millions jackpot has increased.

Tonight’s drawing, Friday, Aug. 21, the Mega Millions estimated jackpot will be $49 million. The cash option is $38.9 million, if you prefer.

Previously, the Mega Millions winning numbers for Tuesday, Aug. 18, were 4 – 18 – 26 – 27 – 58 and a gold Megaball of 23. If you opted for the $1 Megaplier option, you could have multiplied your prize by 4x.

Not a single ticket sold matched all five white balls, so the closest anyone got to hitting the jackpot was matching four white balls plus the gold Megaball. In fact, a total of 17 tickets matched a combination of these numbers for a prize of $10,000. Out of the 17, three opted for the Multiplier option, quadrupling their prize to $40,000.

In Pennsylvania, two tickets were sold for $10,000 each.
