The Great Lottery Jackpot Takedown

It’s over. After a summer of growth, it came to an end Saturday night. On October 2, 2021, the jackpot was finally won…in Lotto Texas. By the hands of a single player in Houston, the prize was reset to $5 million.

Meanwhile, Powerball continued to hold strong. As if having a jackpot grow to $670 million wasn’t enough, a repeating Four-Number Combination made itself at home!

Lotto Texas

Mega Mill-tober

October 1st. That’s 85 days until Christmas (can’t start a countdown too early), 55 days until U.S. Thanksgiving, and of course, 30 days until Halloween. As we enter the most festive time of year, Mega Millions got into the spirit with a visit from the {2-2-1-1} Pattern and an entourage of repeating Three-Number Combinations! The end result was a jackpot that grew to $45 million.

Will the {2-2-1-1} Pattern come back Tuesday night?

Jackpots Firmly Rooted

As some things change, others remain the same. Even though summer has transitioned to fall well, the Lotto Texas and Powerball jackpots just won’t fall. In fact, the thrill of high jackpots just makes these lotteries even more unwilling to give in! At least, that’s what Saturday night suggested.

Neither Lotto Texas nor Powerball were willing to go down September 25, 2021. A Pattern streak and a Pattern encore were on tap, and there was a repeating Four-Number Combination somewhere. Once the dust settled, Lotto Texas’s jackpot climbed to $19.25 million (it could just taste the $20 million mark). Meanwhile, Powerball, monster that it is, grew to $545 million.

Mega Millions and Chill

Friday night has come at last! The job is a distant memory, until Sunday night anyway, and it’s time to get the weekend started. Something’s playing at the movie theatre, right? What about the restaurant that opened a few months ago? Nothing kicks the weekend off like a good meal.

Well, there is one thing that might rival those. Friday nights are Mega Millions nights, you know. Wouldn’t it be something to play and walk away a multimillionaire? Play your cards right (see what we did there?) and you won’t have to ever count down to the weekend again!

Unfortunately, the dream of becoming a “Friday night multimillionaire” was deferred for many. Mega Millions managed to thwart the players Friday night with little effort. Simply through the power of chilling out, the jackpot received a boost, resting at $432 million.

General Lottery Analysis

Even though Mega Millions decided to chill, September 17, 2021 was when the {2-2-1-1} Pattern came back for an encore! With winning numbers 17, 32, 40, 59, 61 and MB 18, this Pattern has now played 195 times.

Now with nine appearances, the 0 1 2 0 2 1 Specific Order has played in 12.9% of the 70 drawings where the General Order was [1-2-2-1]. This Specific Order has also played in 4.62% of the 195 drawings where {2-2-1-1} was the winning Pattern and in 1.27% of all 707 drawings. Prior to Friday night, the 0 1 2 0 2 1 Specific Order played January 31, 2020.

Three-Number Combinations

Part of chilling on a Friday night is the lack of repeating Three-Number Combinations.

The last (true) day of summer is on September 21st, and Mega Millions has the honor of having a drawing. Will this coming Tuesday spell the end of the jackpot run?

The Mega Millions 400 (Million)

Mega Millions has had quite the summer! For nearly four months, its jackpot has yet to be won. The jackpot managed to give players the slip once again Tuesday night. From a glass half-full perspective, it provided another chance to claim an even more massive jackpot! Mega Millions crossed the $400 million threshold; $405 million became up for grabs.

General Lottery Analysis

The September 14, 2021 Mega Millions drawing saw the 194th appearance of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, with winning numbers 4, 13, 19, 63, 64 and MB 16.

Mega Millions: To the Jackpot Beyond

August 2021 ended on a Mega Millions note. Since May, the jackpot has been nurtured through sheer thwarting of players.

How much larger will the Mega Millions jackpot grow before someone knocks it down to size?

The Grand Combination Foundation

Numbers are the first thing many of us think of when we see or hear the word “lottery”, but the combination is the true backbone. While numbers get all the attention, they’re being propped up by combinations. When you dig deeper, there are certain arrangements, combinations if you will, that like to show up in every drawing. To make our analysis even more exciting, some of these combinations will repeat, multiple times in fact.

August 21, 2021 honored the combination. Lotto Texas and Powerball saw outstanding showings of repeating Four-Number and Three-Number Combinations, respectively. Furthermore, the jackpots rose to $12 million in Lotto Texas and $293 million in Powerball.

Bouncy, Energetic Mega Millions

The events that took place August 20, 2021 can be described with one word: “whirlwind”. Mega Millions didn’t know what to do with itself. A playback made an appearance, but that wasn’t enough. No, Mega Millions got greedy. It just had to go crazy with the repeating Three-Number Combinations, and would you believe that there was another similar spread? Bouncing and darting through the lottery smorgasbord propelled the jackpot to $270 million.

Three-Number Combinations

Mega Millions darn lost its mind after grabbing five repeating Three-Number Combinations!
