The Mississippi Match 5 jackpot has grown to a record $810,000.
Unprecedented sales and no jackpot winners have continued to push the jackpot amount higher, as no ticket matched all five numbers during Saturday’s drawing. The next drawing, set for Tuesday night, will be the 25th roll for the current prize with the last win coming on December 10.
“This is phenomenal,” Mississippi Lottery Corporation President Jeff Hewitt said. “Players have been enjoying this game so much. Seeing that excitement swell has pushed the jackpot to record amounts.”
Since its launch, Mississippi Match 5 has had five jackpots of more than $500,000. Each time there’s a jackpot winner, the game resets to a $50,000 jackpot. The previous Mississippi Match 5 record jackpot of $665,000 was hit in July 2021 and was split between two winning tickets.
