Elusive Jackpots

Greetings, Lotterytrend fans. Romulun Harris here. Last night on January 30, 2023, as February approached, the jackpots of Lotto Texas and Powerball maintained their increasing momentum. Lotto Texas’s jackpot is now at $36.75 million and Powerball is at $653 million. Lotto Texas’s jackpot has been holding on since September 19, 2022-that’s over four months! Powerball’s jackpot has been going strong as well since November 9, 2022. Wow! From $20 million to $653 million in less than three months! I guess it had something to do with that won jackpot worth around $2 billion from November 7, 2022.  Anyway, on with the details.

That left an opening for both Lotto Texas and Powerball to increase their jackpots even more Wednesday night. Lotto Texas managed to keep it classy with a jackpot that grew to $35.5 million. Meanwhile, Powerball went on a power trip on the way to $572 million.

Streaks Worth Preserving

Both the {3-2-1} Pattern and the $33.5 million jackpot proved that neither streak were going away anytime soon. Although Powerball didn’t see a Pattern streak, the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern encore gave the jackpot a generous boost to $502 million.

Grow, Grow, and Grow Some More

Roadblocks, setbacks, whatever you want to call them, are a fact of live. We’ve all had projects that didn’t go according to plan, or things that didn’t fall into place the way we wanted them to. For lotteries, it’s a bit more complicated. Sure, they want people to win their prizes, but not too soon. Take Lotto Texas and Powerball for example. According to them, two , three, or even four months is “too soon”.

As of the January 18, 2023 drawing, Mega Millions remained the smallest of the jackpots. Meanwhile, Lotto Texas and Powerball continued their “untouchable” jackpot streaks. As Lotto Texas, with a $33 million prize, wondered how it still had a larger jackpot than Mega Millions (for now), Powerball was pleased as punch having the largest prize at $473 million.

The Power of Dogged Persistence

Either there’s a new bug going around the lottery world, or the lotteries share the same New Year’s resolution. What we’re referring to is the persistence of rising jackpots. Since the last few months of 2022, Mega Millions, Lotto Texas, and Powerball’s prizes kept rising. Mega Millions crossed the $1 billion threshold Friday, and although Lotto Texas and Powerball’s jackpots weren’t nearly as large, the hype was there all the same.

Neither the Lotto Texas nor Powerball jackpots could be brought down Saturday night. Nothing truly out of the ordinary was needed to boost their respective jackpots to $29.25 million and $340 million.

So far, nothing has stopped the jackpots’ growth. Could we see record-breaking jackpots, or will they be brought down soon?

They Just Keep Hangin’ On

A new year means new beginnings, right? Well, yes and no. “Yes” from the angle of starting a new hobby or kicking a bad habit, but those are easier said than done. Old habits are hard to break, and procrastinating is ever so tempting! For Lotto Texas and Powerball, 2023 has meant one thing so far: Let those jackpots rise.

Leaving off from last year, these lotteries’ jackpots continued to gain momentum Monday night. The night of January 4, 2023 told a similar story. No one could stop the Lotto Texas jackpot from rising to $28.75 million and Powerball’s rising to $325 million.
