Mega Millions began June the same way it ended May: with an appearance by the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. This Pattern is the most common Pattern in Mega Millions, and one reason for that is its tendency to repeat itself. Once the Pattern makes an appearance, an encore may not be far behind! And why stop there? That encore can be the steppingstone to a larger Pattern streak! But to get there, a three-peat needs to happen first. Thing is, that three-peat isn’t always meant to be.
A {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern certainly wasn’t meant to be Tuesday night. That three-peat blocker sent the jackpot to $226 million.
