One word best described Lotto Texas and Powerball: “Forward!” After a crazy mid-week last week, and Powerball getting “stuck” this past Saturday, both lotteries were back in the game January 27, 2021.
By “game”, we mean a lottery’s favorite pastime: thwarting players. As frustrating as it is to not win a lottery, let alone have any numbers match, a larger prize is enticing! Lotto Texas grew to $5.5 million, and Powerball leap to $30 million.
