Rekindling and Repeats: A Lotto Texas/Powerball Production

The terms “Passion” and “Lottery Pattern” don’t seem to go together, but you’d be surprised. Whether a Pattern pops its head in for a moment or decides to stick around, it can make all the difference in someone’s life. That Pattern has the potential to enrich someone beyond his or her wildest dreams. Barring that, it makes for interesting lottery analysis, and this past Saturday night was indeed interesting!

Now, February is associated with passion and romance, and a three-peat by the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern solidified its current relationship with Powerball. That pushed the jackpot to $65 million. Lotto Texas had a Pattern streak with the {3-2-1} Pattern but decided to call it quits. There was a Pattern, one not often seen in Lotto Texas, that was given another chance. Rekindling that old flame boosted the jackpot to $6.25 million.

Will the relationships between these lotteries and their Patterns continue to the end of February?

The Spreading Pattern Streak Blocker

Variety is the spice of life, as they say, and there are a variety of spreads. Some enhance the taste of sandwiches, and others make beds look nice. There are others still, but today, we shall look at one that thrives in the lottery world. Now, it doesn’t show up often, but when it does, it makes a big impact!

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the similar spread, and Mega Millions encountered one in Friday night’s drawing. That and a bombardment of repeating Three-Number Combinations pushed the jackpot past $100 million: $102 million to be precise.

General Lottery Analysis

February 25, 2022 marked the 319th appearance of the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, with numbers 15, 31, 40, 56, 66 and MB 4.

Similar Spread

Friday night’s spread was 16:09:16:10. If we go back to October 23, 2020, we’ll find that 18, 34, 44, 60, 69 and MB 22 produced a spread 16:10:16:09. The differences between numbers were the same but of course, the orders (and numbers played) were different.

Three-Number Combinations

 Imagine the madness if there had been a playback! What madness awaits Mega Millions in March?

The Day After “Twosday”

February 22nd was a big day. Until certain events unfolded, “Twosday” would’ve probably been the biggest day of the week. Nonetheless, lotteries are largely immune to the whims of man, and Lotto Texas and Powerball continued onward.

Speaking of the lottery world, February 23, 2022 was probably a bigger day than “Twosday”. Both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw Pattern repeats and then some, which boosted their respective jackpots to $6 million and $58 million.

The most common Patterns in both Lotto Texas and Powerball either have a streak going on or setting the foundations of one. Will Saturday night mean the continuation of the {3-2-1} Pattern streak in Lotto Texas, and a {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern three-peat in Powerball?

Mega Millions and the “Twosday” Three-peat

February 22, 2022 was a Palindrome Day. If you were to write the date as 2/22/22 (or 22/2/22), it would be read the same forward and backward. Interestingly, this Palindrome Day fell on a Tuesday (“Twosday”), and Mega Millions continued to reign supreme in the lottery world! With the help of a {2-2-1-1} Pattern three-peat, the jackpot pushed ahead to $87 million.

General Lottery Analysis

The {2-2-1-1} Pattern three-peat was made possible by 6, 17, 22, 57, 62 and MB 3. This Pattern has now played 211 times.

A Fiery Five-Number Combination Fling

Lotto Texas may have found another passion! An attraction formed between Lotto Texas and a repeating Five-Number Combination earlier this month. This attraction fizzled out but didn’t stay out for long. Lotto Texas embraced yet another repeating Five-Number Combination Saturday night, passionately pushing the jackpot to $5.5 million.

Powerball’s night was much quieter but just as fruitful. With little fanfare, the jackpot increased to $37 million.

Of Encores and an Expanding Jackpot Gulf

One lottery drawing. That’s all it takes to change one’s fate. A jackpot winner came forth in both Lotto Texas and Powerball earlier this week, but there was yet another winner: Mega Millions.

How, you wonder? With Lotto Texas and Powerball out of the way, Mega Millions can take up more space and revel in having the largest available jackpot.

Lotto Texas and Powerball’s Reset Cycle

Jackpot resets are like death, taxes, and disappointment: They’re inevitable. Whether a few weeks or several months have passed, rising jackpots must fall. How they get back up varies from lottery to lottery.

For Lotto Texas and Powerball, February 16, 2022 meant doing what they do best. Lotto Texas didn’t see a need to go all-out. Taking a slow and steady approach meant the jackpot rising to $5.25 million. Powerball’s tactic was to yell frantically and hurl repeating Three-Number Combinations. Messy though that was, it paid off, for the Powerball jackpot rose to $31 million.
