Would-be millionaires now have two different opportunities to win more than $300 million in jackpots.

Since all U.S. lotteries began selling both Powerball and Mega Millions tickets, Tuesday night was the first time that both jackpots have topped $300 million. Since no one matched all six numbers during Tuesday nights Mega Millions lottery, players will have a second chance to win with double the odds.

Since no one matched all six numbers in Tuesday nights $346 million Mega Millions lottery jackpot, Friday's jackpot will be a whopping $382 million.

Be sure to check your tickets: The winning numbers from Tuesday were 11, 17, 50, 52, 74 and 14 was the Megaball.

The Powerball jackpot is now up to $307 million for Wednesday nights drawing.
