The anticipated Mega Millions prize for tonight's drawing is $1.1 billion.

The anticipated Mega Millions jackpot has jumped to $1.1 billion, according to authorities who made the announcement hours before Tuesday night's drawing. Given that no one was able to match all six numbers in the drawing on Friday night, the top prize was previously projected to be worth $1.05 billion. The jackpot winner has the choice of receiving the money as an annuity or a single cash payout. The anticipated value of the cash option for Tuesday night is $550.2 million.
