The Graceful and the Shameless

For three days a week, Lotto Texas and Powerball join forces to provide entertainment and a chance at early retirement. Other than that, these lotteries couldn’t be more different. The former lottery tends to take a more graceful approach when it comes to boosting its jackpot. Meanwhile, the latter tends to have no shame, going all out on wild plays and embracing enormous jackpots. Of course, Lotto Texas’s prizes aren’t to be looked down upon, either!

The gracefulness of Lotto Texas and the shamelessness of Powerball were on full display February 5, 2022. Even with a Pattern encore, Lotto Texas’s jackpot climbed to $8.75 million with little fanfare. Meanwhile, Powerball’s jackpot climbed to $147 million in such a way that such an encore wasn’t necessary to go all out.
