If you play the Mega Millions in New York, you will shell out more to win big on Tuesday, April 8th.

No one from New York won the 1.13 billion dollar Mega Millions grand prize on Tuesday but multiple New Yorkers did win sizable chunks of cash during last night's drawing!

New York State lotto players are continuing to strike rich.

As New Yorkers dash to buy lottery tickets ahead of the big drawing, keep in mind these rules you'll have to follow when you win big!

Even though there was no grand prize winner in the September 12th Mega Millions drawing, someone in Upstate New York is waking up a bit richer this morning to the tune of one million dollars!

Turns out New Yorkers have the most luck when it comes to winning the Mega Millions jackpot.

On January 6th, someone purchased a $1,000,000 Mega Millions second-place ticket at a Stewart's Shop in Rensselaer County. We now know who the winner is, sort of.

Is it legal in New York to purchase a lottery ticket with a credit card?

With the Mega Millions jackpot is $1.35 billion, everyone has a dream of hitting it big. But in New York State if you will the lottery, you must come forward. However, past winners have gotten clever about not disclosing their actual names.

If you find an old winning lottery ticket that you misplaced or forgot about, can you still collect the winnings?

Imagine for a second if the person who won tonight's $900 million dollar Mega Millions jackpot was from a place the size of let's say Gilboa, New York. The thought only popped into my head because with a population of roughly 1,200 people, it's comparable in size to Lonaconing, Maryland where the $730 million dollar Powerball jackpot winner on Wednesday was from.

Check your lottery tickets. There was a winning ticket sold in the Capital Region on Tuesday night. Could you be holding the one million dollar ticket?
