Hot Weather. Hotter Mega Millions

August in June. That’s what it currently feels like in some parts of the U.S. Case in point, Lottery Trend headquarters is flirting with triple digits! It’s times like these we should be thankful for the many ways we can escape the heat like air conditioning, swimming pools, and lotteries.

Believe it or not, lotteries are great for escaping the heat. In the moments you’re picking out numbers, you’re forgetting about how hot it is, or at least trying to. With the millions and millions of dollars up for grabs, you can escape on a Caribbean cruise. If that’s still too warm, you can mosey on down to Australia, where winter is on its way! Unfortunately, if you played Mega Millions June 10, 2022, then you’ll be putting off those escape plans for now.

Mega Millions sent a powerful message by bringing back the {3-1-1-1} Pattern. With it came ripped up tickets, swearing and gnashing of teeth, and a jackpot that grew to $247 million.

So far, the {3-1-1-1} Pattern appears to be dominating June, and the jackpot is nearly a quarter of a billion dollars! Could it be a {3-1-1-1} Pattern three-peat that keeps the jackpot rising, or will Mega Millions have other plans?

Lotto Texas and Powerball Slip n’ Slide Away

Ah, the Slip n’ Slide, one of several quintessential toys of summer! Between the wetness and the burns you get if you don’t slide with enough water, it’s a symbol of freedom, at least until the end of August (or early September for those lucky to start school after Labor Day). Lotteries don’t worry about completing summer reading assignments or math packets. However, they do worry about getting caught and having to regrow their jackpots!

Lotto Texas and Powerball played on their own Slip n’ Slide June 8, 2022. Both lotteries gave players the slip and slid on to higher jackpots! The Lotto Texas jackpot made it to the $5.75 million marker, and Powerball hit the $229 million point.

Will Lotto Texas and Powerball slip and slide away again Saturday night?

Night of the Three-peat Blocker

Mega Millions began June the same way it ended May: with an appearance by the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. This Pattern is the most common Pattern in Mega Millions, and one reason for that is its tendency to repeat itself. Once the Pattern makes an appearance, an encore may not be far behind! And why stop there? That encore can be the steppingstone to a larger Pattern streak! But to get there, a three-peat needs to happen first. Thing is, that three-peat isn’t always meant to be.

A {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern certainly wasn’t meant to be Tuesday night. That three-peat blocker sent the jackpot to $226 million.

One Keeps Going, Two Start Over

Greetings, Lotterytrend fans! Romulun Harris here. As of last night on June 6, 2022, Powerball’s jackpot increased to $210 million while Lotto Texas’s jackpot started over and increased to $5.25 million, just five days after its $17.75 million had been won on June 1, 2022.

Rebuilding is not just putting stuff together again. It is also jackpots trying to build themselves back up after big wins and patterns—especially the frequently played ones—trying to rebuild their streak after they’ve been broken. Definitely expect to see a lot of it.  This is Romulun Harris signing off. Take care!

The Saturday Night Summer Chiller

From the madness of repeating Combinations to a jackpot winner, Lotto Texas and Powerball had quite a week! After an eventful week (there was a holiday after all), these lotteries took it down a notch Saturday night. By the power of uncommonly played Patterns, both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw their respective jackpots rise to $5.25 million and $198 million.

Was Saturday night just a breather for Lotto Texas and Powerball, or was it the beginning of a quieter month?

Mega Millions in “Call of the Encore”

A new month means new beginnings. June, for example, is the start of summer vacation for many students and the start of the Atlantic Hurricane Season. However, a new month can also be a continuation of something else, like a new hobby or a new routine. Or, in Mega Millions’ case, the continued appearance of a Pattern.

June 3, 2022 meant kicking off the weekend with a Pattern encore (and then some)! These elements boosted the jackpot to $204 million.

Friday night’s {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern encore was thanks to 11, 16, 22, 48, 59 and MB 11. This Pattern has now played 334 times.

Could this {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern encore be the start of a massive summer streak?

A Blast of Encore, a Dash of Playback

Hard to believe that the year is nearly halfway over, isn’t it? June means summer will officially kick off soon, and what better way to welcome the new month than with Powerball and Lotto Texas?

These lotteries had the honor of playing June 1, 2022, and what a night it was! By the grace of a {3-2-1} Pattern encore, a lone player from Pearland grabbed the $17.75 million Lotto Texas jackpot by the horns. Naturally, the jackpot reset itself to $5 million. Meanwhile, Powerball held strong, using the power of a playback to boost the jackpot to $184 million.

Will Saturday night mean an encore for either the {3-2-1} Pattern or the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern?

The Rush to a Common Pattern

Whether you’re blessed with summer vacation or must face another work week, one thing everyone (well, most everyone) can agree on is that the weekend goes by too fast. Will we breeze through to Friday, or will the journey there be a slog? Sure, this week is a short one, but inquiring minds want to know! Human minds, anyway.

Mega Millions wasn’t at all concerned about the speed a work week flows. This lottery’s focus was on how to end the month of May. After a wild Friday, there wasn’t enough energy for another go with the {2-2-1-1} Pattern. Mega Millions took a more common approach, Pattern-wise that is, and that was enough to boost the grand prize to $189 million.

Giving it One More Go

May is almost over, and what a month it was! The {3-2-1] Pattern dominated, with a streak in Lotto Texas and even paying Powerball and Mega Millions a visit. After being “dethroned” last weekend, other Patterns took the spotlight, and even made an encore. The {3-2-1} Pattern’s absence was short-lived, however, as it came back for one more go-around Saturday night. That, along with a playback, helped boost the Lotto Texas jackpot to $17.25 million. Although Powerball didn’t receive this Pattern’s blessing, that didn’t stop the jackpot there from rising to $157 million.
