Lotto Texas and Powerball had the joint honor of kicking off the month. Great minds thought alike May 1st as both, yes both, lotteries saw Pattern encores! They also shared a love of thwarting all efforts to win the jackpot. With no grand prize winners in either Lotto Texas or Powerball, their respective pots are now $6.25 million and $199 million.

Both the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern and the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order were last seen April 27, 2019. It turned out that not only did the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern make an encore, so did the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order! Could this mean a playback was in the cards for Powerball?
Not necessarily. With its eighth appearance, the 1 2 0 1 1 1 Specific Order has played in 20.5% of the 39 drawings where the General Order was [1-2-1-1-1].
