In addition to the whole “Gotta raise the jackpot” mindset, there was one other thing that came to mind for Lotto Texas and Powerball Saturday night: “thirds”. Yes, thirds. One Pattern ruled the week in its respective lottery while the other saw a repeating Combination that played for the third time! Once the dust settled, the Lotto Texas and Powerball jackpots rose to $16.5 million and $215 million, respectively.
