It’s over. After a summer of growth, it came to an end Saturday night. On October 2, 2021, the jackpot was finally won…in Lotto Texas. By the hands of a single player in Houston, the prize was reset to $5 million.
Meanwhile, Powerball continued to hold strong. As if having a jackpot grow to $670 million wasn’t enough, a repeating Four-Number Combination made itself at home!
