Wednesday, January 13, 2010 posted 09:41 AM EST

The Mega Millions jackpot has been boosted to an estimated $73 million for the next drawing in the multistate lottery game.

The grand prize amount has been rolled over because no player matched all the winning numbers to take the $60 million jackpot up for grabs Tuesday night. Mega Millions will be played again on Friday.

Although the big prize had no winner, seven tickets were worth second prizes of $250,000 each, though none was sold in Ohio. Another 29 players, including two who bought tickets in Ohio, won third prizes of $10,000 each.

The winning numbers from Tuesday were: 5, 9, 31, 37 and 56. The Mega Ball number was 16.
