After a hop-along with an Australia Play, Mega Millions went into the weekend escaping the grasp of the players once more. The April 26, 2019 drawing did not see an Australia Play encore, but if you’re a lover of repeating Three-Number Combinations, then the night was buzzing with them!
Mega Millions will be ending the month with a $229 million jackpot up for grabs, and it’s all thanks to a common Pattern. The most common, in fact.
