No tickets were sold with all six numbers in the latest multi-state Mega Millions draw, and the jackpot for Tuesday's drawing will grow to $150 million, lottery officials announced Friday.

Six tickets -- two sold in California and one each in Georgia, Illinois, New York and Texas -- had five numbers, but didn't have the Mega number and are each worth $250,000.

The numbers chosen tonight were 17, 35, 40, 46, 48 and the Mega number was 41. The jackpot was $130 million.

The odds of matching all five numbers and the Mega number is 1 in 175,711,536, according to the Mega Millions Web site.

The drawing was the 11th since the last time one ticket was sold with all six numbers.

Besides California, the Mega Millions game is played in Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Texas, Virginia and Washington.
