December Special

Mega Millions got in the holiday spirit on December 2nd by giving us a couple of gifts. Not only was it a generous way to start the weekend, it helped start our December coverage with a bang.

Friday’s Mega Millions drawing saw the 100th appearance of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern. This occasion was marked by winning numbers 3, 33, 35, 49, 51, and MB 1.

The {2-2-1-1} Pattern has now played in 30.7% of the 326 Mega Millions drawings to date. We saw this Pattern play previously in the Black Friday (November 25, 2016) drawing last week.

Next, the [1-2-2-1] General Order made its 29th appearance, and it too previously played in the Black Friday drawing. This General Order has now played in 29% of the 100 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has played, and approximately 8.90% of all Mega Millions drawings.

We now come to the 1 0 2 2 0 1 General Order, making its fourth appearance. This Specific order has now played in 13.8% of the 29 drawings where the [1-2-2-1] General Order appeared, 4% of the 100 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern appeared, and in 1.23% of the 326 Mega Millions drawings. To see when the 1 0 2 2 0 1 General Order previously played, we need to go back a couple of years. More specifically, the October 10, 2014 drawing.

Finally, Mega Millions gifted us with the presence of two repeating Three-Number Combinations. These combinations were

As Christmas draws ever closer, will Mega Millions see a Pattern streak this month? Will there be more repeating Three-Number Combinations?
