Two Lotteries Come Sailing in on Christmas Eve

And so, we’ve finally arrived. Merry Christmas, everyone! Stay warm and be kind to one another. For anyone reading from the Southern Hemisphere, stay cool, stay hydrated, and be kind to one another.

Remember back when you were a kid and your parents told you to eat your vegetables before dessert? Strangely, Christmas Eve is somewhat like that. Christmas is the holiday of holidays, religious connotations aside. To ease our minds off the desire to open presents early, Christmas specials and movies seem to do the trick. Even better if those are marathons! This year, those who were looking for other Christmas entertainment took part in either Lotto Texas or Powerball, hoping for extremely good fortunes before Christmas. The problem is that these lotteries didn’t want to share.

Christmas Eve 2022 would be a night of two lotteries doing all they could to prevent their prizes from being won. No grand plays were needed to send the Lotto Texas jackpot to $24.5 million and Powerball’s to $201 million.

Stay safe and warm, and Happy Holidays!   

Joy to the Encore

We’ve updated the “About this Blog” page. Go check it out!

One word that best described Saturday night was “Encore!” Both Lotto Texas and Powerball thought it best to stick with what they knew instead of going for unorthodox plays. Well, at least Lotto Texas played it somewhat safe as the jackpot hit $22 million. Although not too wild, Powerball took a page from the Mega Millions playbook and saw the jackpot rise to $158 million.

There’s only one week until Christmas, and Lotto Texas and Powerball are fired up! We’ll have to see if they’ll be up to Christmas mischief, or if at least one of them provides a very generous gift.

Silent Night. Lottery Night.

Christmas is a time of wonder and merriment, and it’s also a time of reflection. A time to step back and soak it all in, you know? Those moments when not much happens can make you appreciate those wild moments more. This is generally true of not only people, but lotteries as well, apparently.

From monstrously sized jackpots to making it rain repeating Combinations, Lotto Texas and Powerball were busy these past few months! What with Christmas not being too far away, these lotteries toned it down significantly Wednesday night. As such, both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw their respective jackpots rise to $21.5 million and $149 million.

As the Christmas countdown continues, how long will Lotto Texas and Powerball retain this “dignified” approach to jackpot boosting?

Pattern Encores are Brightly Shining

Why try your hand with one lottery when you can play two? That’s a thought that has crossed the minds of players every Monday (since last year), Wednesday, and Saturday. Two lotteries guarantee two tries to win the big bucks, right? Well, it’s not that simple. Whether you play Lotto Texas or Powerball, or both, things have come together to win the jackpot. Things did not come together December 10, 2022.

Lotto Texas and Powerball had it in their minds to revisit some very recently played Patterns Saturday night. These encores pushed the jackpots to $20.25 million and $124 million, respectively.

Lotto Texas

Both the {3-2-1} Pattern and the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern are notorious for Pattern streaks, and Pattern encores are the first step to achieving them! And, after encores come three-peats. Is a three-peat in store for Lotto Texas and/or Powerball Monday night?

The Ever-Sublime Jackpot Climb

After toying with both an exact and a similar spread, Lotto Texas cast these aside Wednesday night. Heck, Powerball didn’t even approach those subjects! Instead, the mid-week drawings took a more, shall we say, common approach, to boost their jackpots. The Lotto Texas jackpot reached $19.75 million, and Powerball’s climbed to $116 million.

After spreading out and going cuckoo for repeating Combinations, enquiring minds want to know: Will Lotto Texas hit the $20 million mark Saturday night?

Some Lotteries Like to Spread Out

After a month of going nuts over repeating Combinations, Lotto Texas and Powerball may going for another approach. That approach, dear readers, is the art of the spread.

December may have just started, but there were hints of change this past Wednesday night. A similar approach happened Saturday night for one lottery while the other went with repeating Combinations. Regardless of approach, both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw their respective jackpots grow to $19 million and $89 million.

Both Lotto Texas and Powerball’s jackpots continue to soar, and the art of the spread seems to be making headway. Still, it’s early yet. We’ll have to see if more similar and/or exact spreads are in the cards for these lotteries, or if they’ll abandon them like fruitcake.

The Exact Art of a Spread

November was the month repeating Combinations reigned supreme. As the month concluded, one would have expected either Lotto Texas or Powerball to take it down a notch. Instead, one of the lotteries opted for an exact spread, and there were more repeating Combinations! Additionally, the jackpots climbed once more, with Lotto Texas growing to $18.75 million and Powerball $81 million.

The Holiday Season has begun, fans! You can definitely expect some surprises. This is Romulun Harris signing off. Stay safe.

Recuperation

In the lead-up to Thanksgiving, both Lotto Texas and Powerball went crazy for repeating Combinations. The day before Thanksgiving had a record 17 repeating Combinations! Saturday night was much different. The lotteries figured that too many Combinations in such a short amount of time wasn’t going to be good for them in the long run. Instead, they spent the night too tired (and stuffed) to do much of anything. However, there was just enough energy to keep the players from claiming the jackpots. Lotto Texas held strong at $17.25 million, and the Powerball prize pushed onward to $56 million.

What with people heading home and bracing for another work/school week, perhaps it’s fitting that neither Lotto Texas nor Powerball went crazy with the repeating Combinations. We are, of course, now in the Christmas season. Inquiring minds want to know what shenanigans these lotteries will be up to in the coming weeks. Are more nights with a glut of repeating Combinations on tap, or will they have something else up their sleeves?
