Mega Millions odds and number format
Mega Millions uses a 5/70+1/24 format: 5 white balls from 1 to 70 and 1 mega ball from 1 to 24. The picker only creates combinations that fit those rules, then applies the mode you choose.
The published jackpot odds are 1 in 290,472,336. In plain terms, one valid entry covers one combination out of 290,472,336. That denominator is the baseline chance of winning the jackpot before prize tiers, ticket cost, or jackpot-sharing are considered.
Mega Millions draws on Tuesday and Friday. Check the official operator for current cut-off times, prize tiers, and local play rules.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this tool predict winning numbers?+
No. Every valid combination has the same mathematical chance of being drawn. This tool does not predict lottery results.
What is Anti-Crowd mode?+
Anti-Crowd mode avoids common human-picking patterns such as birthday-heavy numbers and obvious sequences. It does not improve your odds of winning — it may reduce jackpot-sharing if you happen to win.
What is birthday bias?+
Birthday bias occurs when many numbers fall between 1 and 31 because people often choose calendar dates. The score is baseline-aware: it compares against the expected count for this game's pool.
Do historical frequencies predict future draws?+
No. Each draw is an independent random event. Historical results describe the past only and do not change the probability of future draws.
