So Nice That It Played Twice

Tuesday night featured Mega Millions going out with the {2-2-1-1} Pattern. Perhaps it was because the jackpot went up, or Mega Millions saw something in this Pattern others overlooked.

Lotto Texas and Powerball’s February Fortitude

Winter blues? What winter blues? Winter has been extremely kind to both Lotto Texas and Powerball on the jackpot front. All right, Powerball has had one hiccup, but this lottery’s jackpot has been rising! With the seasons getting ready for their yearly March change-up, these lotteries’ jackpots are, pardon the expression, springing ahead, and with no one to stop them.

Wednesday night was kind to both jackpots. The Lotto Texas prize grew to $44 million with little fanfare. Meanwhile, Powerball’s rowdiness with a double encore pushed the jackpot to $73 million.

The Valentine’s Day 2023 Combination Special

Valentine’s Day is one of those “love to hate” holidays for more people than you think. Both singles and couples alike dread reminders of their relationship status (not all, mind you). If that isn’t enough, then there are the displays of cards, candies, plushies, and of course, flowers. Yet not many people turn down flowers, doubly so if chocolate is involved! Not  many people turn down the opportunity to win millions of dollars, either.

Mega Millions may not shower us with love and attention, but there does exist an opportunity to win enough money to not only retire early, but open the floodgates for buying more lavish gifts. Of course, money can’t buy love, and Mega Millions must be in the giving spirit.

Generosity was absent on the Mega Millions side. Valentine’s Day, or technically, Valentine’s Night 2023 was about the continuation of jackpot growth. Once everything settled down, the prize grew to $84 million.

General Lottery Analysis

February 14th featured the 241st appearance of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern. The winning numbers were 23, 24, 35, 40, 43 and MB 1.

Grade A Lotteries

The “A” grade, source of both triumph and anxiety. More “A’s” on a report card means a higher grade point average (and happier parents). An “A” rating at a restaurant means the best food and high-quality service. For lotteries like Lotto Texas and Powerball, an A grade translates to, “Winning the jackpot is going to be a challenge.”

Lately, those who’ve played either or both lotteries have seen how their jackpots kept going up. After February 4, 2023, that didn’t change! No wild plays were needed to boost the Lotto Texas jackpot to $38 million. Meanwhile, Powerball, opting out of a Pattern streak, raised the jackpot to $747 million.

There’s Something Familiar About That Mega Millions

In the shadow of Powerball’s massive jackpot stands Mega Millions. It wasn’t too long ago that Mega Millions had the prize everyone was clamoring for. Now, the beleaguered lottery hasn’t been able to break free from the reset cycle. Lately, the jackpot has only been able to rise to $31 million or so just before being forced to reset. A similar story was told Friday night.

Last Friday, the Mega Millions jackpot rose to $31 million, only to reset earlier this week. February 3, 2023 was familiar in more ways than one. The jackpot rose to $31 million, and it was thanks to the very Pattern that triggered Tuesday night’s reset in the first place!

Will Mega Millions finally break the cycle Tuesday night?

Mega Millions: Stuck

“What’s going on?! It’s not supposed to be like this!” Mega Millions thought.

Someone just had to win that massive jackpot, and on Friday the 13th, no less. Ever since, the jackpot never strayed far from $20 million. Sure, the jackpot would climb up a little, but it would reset just as swiftly. Speaking of reset, that’s exactly what happened Tuesday night. Now Mega Millions, fuming and spitting nails, must contend with another $20 million prize.
