Holiday Couplings: Lottery Style

Humans are social creatures by nature. All of us at some time or another desire companionship and a genuine connection with others. Some people have strong family units, others have a strong social network, and others still have either both or none of the above. Through the power of marketing and how many Christmas traditions came about, there’s an even stronger desire for most of us to have companionship at this time of year. Sometimes, that desire manifests as coupling up. Christmas stories wouldn’t be a thing otherwise!

Lotteries don’t concern themselves with romance, naturally. However, they are known to grow attached to different Patterns during their lives…

December 15, 2021 meant Lotto Texas and the {3-2-1} Pattern sticking together another night. This union led to the jackpot sitting pretty at $13 million. A Pattern streak with {2-1-1-1-1} looked to be in the making for Powerball, but that wasn’t meant to be. Upon further analysis, it was discovered that such a streak wasn’t necessary to raise the prize to $353 million.

Are Pattern encores in store for Monday night?

Play’s the Same

Repetition is key, even if it may not look like it on the surface. Some Patterns repeat more than others and in turn makes them the most likely to gift someone with millions of dollars. However, the nature of these repeats varies. The most common form is the encore. Given enough time, that encore may evolve into a three-peat or even a Pattern streak.

What about other forms of repetition? What happens when lotteries take inspiration from not just the recent past but other lotteries themselves?

Wednesday night looked a lot like this past Saturday for Lotto Texas. Meanwhile, Powerball drew inspiration from a very recent Mega Millions! Once the dust cleared, both lotteries saw larger jackpots. Lotto Texas grew to $12.25 million, and Powerball stood strong at $307 million.

The Weekend Lottery Triple Whammy

No, Mega Millions didn’t show up on Saturday night; that’s not its gig, anyway. The title of today’s post points to some interesting developments that took place in the lottery world. One lottery saw an Australia Play while the other saw its Wednesday night Pattern return. Both of these had the added effect of pushing the jackpots upward once again. Lotto Texas rose to $11.75 million, and Powerball climbed to $280 million.
