Are Pattern encores in store for Monday night?

Play’s the Same

Repetition is key, even if it may not look like it on the surface. Some Patterns repeat more than others and in turn makes them the most likely to gift someone with millions of dollars. However, the nature of these repeats varies. The most common form is the encore. Given enough time, that encore may evolve into a three-peat or even a Pattern streak.

What about other forms of repetition? What happens when lotteries take inspiration from not just the recent past but other lotteries themselves?

Wednesday night looked a lot like this past Saturday for Lotto Texas. Meanwhile, Powerball drew inspiration from a very recent Mega Millions! Once the dust cleared, both lotteries saw larger jackpots. Lotto Texas grew to $12.25 million, and Powerball stood strong at $307 million.

Mega Millions was out and about this past Friday, what with a similar spread, a Pattern encore, and a repeating Three-Number Combination duo. Tuesday night was another matter.

The Weekend Lottery Triple Whammy

No, Mega Millions didn’t show up on Saturday night; that’s not its gig, anyway. The title of today’s post points to some interesting developments that took place in the lottery world.

Lotto Texas rose to $11.75 million, and Powerball climbed to $280 million.

Spreading Saturday Cheer

Both Lotto Texas and Powerball had the honor of ringing in December. Yes, folks, we’re in the home stretch, and soon we’ll be seeing 2021 in the rear-view mirror! Ironically, lotteries help propel our dreams for the future by drawing heavily on the past.

December 1, 2021 was a night that resembled this past Saturday. Both Patterns featured that night returned Wednesday, and one lottery saw a similar spread. By drawing from the recent past, the future jackpots for Lotto Texas and Powerball rose to $11.5 million and $278 million, respectively.

Similar Spread

Wednesday night’s numbers had a spread of 03:04:14:06:08. A spread that was much like this took place in what, in lottery terms, may as well be the distant past. On May 16, 2001, the spread was 04:14:03:06:08, produced by winning numbers 15, 19, 33, 36, 42 and 50. Whether it was twenty weeks ago or twenty years ago, a similar spread will feature differences in numbers that are the same yet in different orders. Of course, the numbers played those nights are likely to be different as well.
