Powerball’s jackpot continued to be the elephant in the room. Its growth wasn’t hampered earlier in the week, and nothing slowed it down Wednesday night. In fact, a Pattern three-peat, and then some, pushed the prize to $1.5 billion!
“Why should Powerball have all the fun?” Lotto Texas thought. “I’m still relevant, dagnabit!”
(Good ol’ Lotto Texas, keeping it classy)
Lotto Texas may not be as grand as Powerball, but the prize over there saw a growth spurt as well. Few would turn their nose up at an $11.5 million jackpot!

Powerball thought a three-peat and a (near) playback were sufficient for throwing its weight around.
Powerball may be the biggest, baddest lottery around, but this is just another rise-reset-rise cycle. In the meantime, the world continues to watch Powerball with bated breath, wondering if a $2 billion prize isn’t too far off. And Lotto Texas, dear, dignified Lotto Texas, will (most likely) continue onward with little fanfare.
