Yes, you read that right. Thang! Lotteries may just be made up of a set of numbers that humans draw, but sometimes you have to wonder if they’ve got minds of their own. A Pattern streak, or better yet, a Pattern that’s rarely played? They just do it.
But what happens when both Lotto Texas and Powerball gift the world with repeating Four and Three-Number Combinations, respectively? The answer, of course, is that “It depends”, but for March 10, 2021, it meant the dreams of (early) retirement being deferred for millions. The plus side in all this is that Lotto Texas graciously climbed to $7 million, and Powerball jumped to $169 million.
