Lotto Texas and Powerball’s “Common” Send-Off

Can you believe that 2022 is halfway over? In a world that seems to make increasingly less sense, the lotteries have kept their heads on straight. Nothing unusual about Pattern streaks, Australia Plays, and rising jackpots! However, there is some disorder, however slight, when someone wins the big prize.

June 29, 2022 was a big night for Powerball. It was an appearance by Powerball’s most common Pattern that helped a lone player from Vermont win the $365 million. June 29th also meant playtime for Lotto Texas’s most common Pattern. Unlike Powerball’s, the jackpot climbed graciously to $5.5 million.

A new month is upon us, and the summer season is still young. One jackpot has reset, and another continues to make modest gains. How high will they climb before resetting again?

Mega Millions’ Blockbuster Jackpot

Movie theaters almost seem antiquated, don’t they? Even the best performing movies end up on a streaming service and/or made available for purchase six weeks later. Why on earth would anyone go? For one, humans are social creatures that need more than the simulacra of social media (Translation: We thrive better when physically interacting with others, even if tangentially), and some movies just look and sound better on the big screen. Going further, some movies connect people on a more global scale, raking in hundreds of millions, sometimes billions of dollars and become part of the wider culture. The blockbusters. Now, blockbusters are associated with movies, true, but let’s consider a different kind. A lottery kind.

June 28, 2022 was a blockbuster night for Mega Millions. Thousands of people shot their shot, and thousands of people could connect over the disappointment of loss. Regardless of how players felt about their losses, the jackpot grew to $360 million.

The Night That Repeats Dominated

In the last Lotto Texas/Powerball post, we talked about how repeats tend to dominate the airwaves during the summer. Perhaps there’s no better night for repeats than Saturday night! After all, many people go out on Saturdays, and when opting to stay in, they have more options than they did 40, 30, or even 10 years ago. Just as TV channels are fond of repeats, so are lotteries.

Pattern repeats dominated the lottery landscape June 25, 2022. In fact, it was a Pattern three-peat in Lotto Texas that forced the jackpot to reset to $5 million. Powerball’s Pattern encore gave the jackpot another boost, pushing it to $346 million.

Lotto Texas

Could either the Australia Play or the {2-2-1-1} Pattern be setting up to end June with Pattern streaks?

Mega Millions’ Right to a Near Playback

The human world is a messy place. Things aren’t always what they seem, and nothing can ever be taken for granted. Although lotteries have their fancies and like to play tricks on players from time to time, they have no pretenses. In the lottery world, indeed the number world, what you see is what you get. Numbers don’t lie. There is a method to their madness, and Mega Millions’ madness was on display June 24, 2022.

No {2-2-1-1} Pattern encore was in the cards, and an Australia Play? Forget about it! However, in a prime display of “Almost doesn’t count”, we were graced with the presence of a “near” playback. Of course, that jackpot didn’t care one way or the other, for that “near” playback sent the jackpot to an astonishing $328 million!

General Lottery Analysis

With winning numbers 1, 7, 11, 25, 56 and MB 14, the {3-1-1-1} Pattern made its 149th appearance.

Friday night was a boon for fans of repeating Three-Number Combinations!

Will the Mega Millions jackpot continue to soar as summer kicks into full gear?

Bounding into Summer

Summer isn’t just about hot temperatures and beating the heat. Summer’s a time for travel, a time for adventure, and a time for repeats.

“Repeats?” you ask.

For as long as television has been around, summer has been a time where repeats dominated the airwaves. Broadcast or cable, it mattered not. If you turned on the TV, chances are it was on an episode you had seen a bajillion times. No harm in watching it a bajillion and one times, right?

Now, repeats in and of themselves aren’t necessarily a bad thing. They certainly aren’t for lotteries! After all, if you miss something the first time, you won’t miss it again, right?

Except, if you played Lotto Texas this past Monday and played again Wednesday night, you likely missed the Australia Play again. But don’t worry! The jackpot grew to $7.25 million, certainly not small change! Powerball didn’t see an encore, but it saw its jackpot shoot up to $335 million.

Lotto Texas

Mega Millions: Dawn of a New Summer

And so, it has come. After weeks of brutal heat, summer is officially here! Yet, you can’t help but get the feeling that the summers may be hotter than they were when you were a kid. Oh well, nothing like a dip in the pool or tubing down river can’t fix, right? Or, how about some Mega Millions? That’ll help take your mind off the humidity and give you an endless summer, of sorts. Thing is, you’re going to need both persistence and patience.

As the temperatures stayed high, Mega Millions cooled down. An encore for the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern didn’t materialize, but the jackpot rose all the same. In fact, it shot up well past the $300 million mark, stopping at $312 million when all was said and done.

General Lottery Analysis

June 21, 2022 was the night for a {2-2-1-1} Pattern. With winning numbers 8, 13, 18, 32, 42 and MB 20, this Pattern has now played 217 times.

Looks like the summer season’s begun with a few surprises for the Lottery World: an Australia Play in Lotto Texas, and an incrementing jackpot along with a Three-Number Combination appearing for the third time in Powerball. We can definitely expect more surprises to come. This is Romulun Harris signing off. Stay safe and Happy Summer!

Streaking and Hopping Out of Spring

Well, folks, it’s almost here! After weeks of unrelenting heat, early sunrises and late sunsets, the calendar and the temperatures are about to align. In just a few days, spring will give way to summer. This year, Lotto Texas and Powerball will be the ones to see spring off. If the results from Saturday night are an indicator of things to come, then Monday’s spring finale will be a big one! But we’re getting ahead of ourselves.

June 18, 2022 was great news for fans of the {3-2-1} Pattern in Lotto Texas. That Pattern solidified its streak and helped boost the jackpot to $6.75 million. Although Powerball didn’t see a Pattern streak, let alone a Pattern encore, an Australia Play was plenty enough to send the crazy-high jackpot even higher to $296 million.

Will the jackpots for Lotto Texas and Powerball continue to go up like the temperatures?

A Common Pattern Turns Up the Heat

Even though the calendar says summer is a few days away, it’s already here! Even though a good chunk of June technically falls under spring in the Northern Hemisphere, the temperatures have been more like we’d expect in July or even August. Rain showers cool everything down for a bit, but in some places, those have been in short supply. Like June 2022, Mega Millions hasn’t cooled down, either.

In fact, the heat got turned up Friday night. Thanks to a very common Pattern, the Mega Millions jackpot swelled to $290 million.

General Lottery Analysis
