While there were whisperings of a possible Pattern streak in Mega Millions, Lotto Texas and Powerball were on a different path Saturday night. No playbacks were to be had July 10, 2021, nor were there Pattern encores. Instead, these lotteries embraced a love of repeating Three and Four-Number Combinations, Powerball especially so. The jackpots graciously grew to $7.5 and $137 million, respectively.
