Lotto Texas and Powerball had the joint honor of seeing April off. The last drawings of the month fell on a Saturday night and with Saturdays being big party days, why not have a blowout? Repeating Combinations were a running theme, and a Pattern streak could also be spotted in the madness. In the end, Lotto Texas’s jackpot grew to $5.75 million, and Powerball’s grew to $60 million.
