Tropical Storm Powerball

Greetings Lotterytrend fans! Romulun Harris here. Last night on September 25, 2023, while the country—generally the East Coast— continued to deal with tropical storms and hurricanes, the Lottery World experienced a storm of its own, in the form of Powerball’s jackpot that increased up to Category 835–$835 million, that is! And strong winds in the form of the frequently played {3-2-1} and {2-1-1-1-1} Patterns howling respectively over the Lotto Texas and Powerball districts. And now, the aftermath of these Lottery storms.

So far this year, Powerball’s been very powerful when it comes to billion-dollar jackpots. If this keeps up, Powerball could be at a billion dollars again by the beginning of October. And it’s hard to tell what will happen on Halloween. And let’s all pray for those people on the East Coast—including Nova Scotia, Canada—who have to deal with the brunt of the strong storms this hurricane season so far. This is Romulun Harris signing off. Stay safe!

“Fall”-ing for Lotteries

To all our readers in the Northern Hemisphere, that wonderful season known as fall began September 23rd at 6:50 AM GMT. However, depending on where you live, Mother Nature still hasn’t let go of summer. As many fall lovers in those regions count down the days when they can whip out the sweaters and truly embrace the pumpkin spice, there’s no heat relief in either Lotto Texas or Powerball. In fact, a Saturday night is prime time to turn things up!

This past Saturday night was a bit quieter on the “crazy plays” front. No Australia Plays coming back like boomerangs, let alone any Pattern encores. Instead, the beast of a jackpot in Powerball grew even larger, stopping at a towering $785 million. Meanwhile, Lotto Texas’s jackpot rose to a respectable $7.5 million.

Lotto Texas

Is the Powerball jackpot looking to surpass $800 million Monday night, or will it take a mighty fall?

The Tuesday Night Double Take

Tuesday nights generally aren’t wild, Mardi Gras notwithstanding. People are just getting back into the groove of the work or school week, and they’re already thinking about Friday. Mega Millions, free from the madness of tyrannical teachers and ego tripping bosses, can be as wild as it darn well pleases. Often, as we saw this past Tuesday, the results feed the jackpot beast.

September 12, 2023 was of those nights where there was not one but two encores! Those had a hand in boosting the jackpot to $162 million.

General Lottery Analysis

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern made its triumphant return with 2, 14, 21, 42, 67 and MB 18. This Pattern has now played 382 times. There have now been 914 Mega Millions drawings, and the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has now played 41.8% of the time.

Money, money everywhere, and not a cent to spend. And I’d like to close this little article by sharing prayers for those who died in the September 11, 2001 attack back in New York City. Yes, although it may have been over 20 years, this is an important event that must never be forgotten because some of those people who died gave their lives for this country. I also give my prayers to those still living and have lost friends and family on that frightening, heartbreaking day. This is Romulun Harris signing off. Stay safe and be careful.

Boiling, Roiling Lotteries

A Saturday night can fall into three categories: a night to work, a night to chill, or a night to go out on the town. This applies to both humans and lotteries alike. Like people, no two lotteries are the same.

The differences between Lotto Texas and Powerball were magnified this Saturday night. Even with an Australia Play, Lotto Texas maintained composure and grew the jackpot to $6 million. Meanwhile, Powerball used its most common Pattern to boost the jackpot to $522 million.

The Friday Night Simmer
