Month: May 2022

The Mega Millions Pattern Streak Strikeout

As Mega Millions bid farewell to April, it did so with an assist from the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. Having played three times in a row,  a Pattern streak to start May wouldn’t have been out of the question. After all, this Pattern is no stranger to streaks! However, Mega Millions had other plans. A Pattern streak may not have come to fruition, but the momentum persisted as the jackpot grew to $70 million.

The Reigning Combination Affliction

Last time we saw our dear friends Lotto Texas and Powerball, there were mutterings of a conspiracy amongst them. Both lotteries took it upon themselves to bombard everyone with repeating Combinations aplenty. Based off what happened April 30, 2022, the word “conspiracy” caught one lottery off-guard. In contrast to earlier in the week, this lottery took it down a notch. Meanwhile, the other lottery didn’t care a whit, further delving into the madness. Both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw their respective jackpots climb to $11.25 million and $27 million.
