Powerball’s Double-Up

Long-time readers of our blog know about Powerball’s fondness for going big. Billion-dollar jackpots are one thing, but those don’t come easy! Besides, the jackpot needs to build up to that point. Though it’ll be a while yet before a billion-dollar jackpot looms over the horizon, Saturday night’s results brought the jackpot closer! A {2-2-1-1} Pattern encore raised the jackpot to $179 million.

Lotto Texas was no slouch, either. After being forced to reset this past Wednesday night, its jackpot received a graceful boost to $5.25 million.
