When a lottery jackpot resets, one phrase comes to mind: “There’s nowhere else to go but up!” Earlier in the week, Mega Millions was forced to reset after a visit from the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. Rather than sulk and lie about on Friday night, this lottery dusted itself off and bumped the jackpot up to $22 million.

Will the jackpot continue to climb Tuesday night, or will it get nudged back down again?
