California lottery offers top jackpots

Players of either game may purchase tickets for the current jackpots until 7:45 p.m. on the evening of the draw; MEGA Millions on Tuesday and SuperLOTTO Plus on Wednesday. Tickets for all Lottery games are available at the Lottery's approximately 19,000 retail locations statewide.

For the MEGA Millions draw, a winner of the $122 million jackpot would receive annual payments of $4.69 million for the next 26 years (before taxes) or could choose the cash option and receive a lump sum of roughly half the jackpot amount, around $70.4 million.

For the SuperLOTTO Plus draw, a winner of the $65 million jackpot would receive annual payments beginning at $1.6 million and graduating to $3.3 million by the 26th years (before taxes) or could choose the cash option and receive a lump sum of roughly half the jackpot amount, around $35.9 million.

As the jackpots rise, the California Lottery would like to remind players that gambling should be fun. If you think that you or someone you care about might have a gambling problem, call the California Problem Gambling Help Line at 1-800-GAMBLER.
