Too Many Encores? No Such Thing!

July 13, 2019 can be described as such: “Encores! Encores everywhere!”

The Pattern streak in Lotto Texas held strong Saturday night and that played a hand in no one winning the jackpot. The prize there rose to a respectable $11.75 million.

Saturday night belonged to Powerball. Not only was there a Pattern three-peat, but one player in Tennessee became $198 million richer! As such, the prize got knocked back down to $40 million.

Four-Number Combination(s)

A playback and a {3-2-1} Pattern streak were all that Lotto Texas could muster. There were no repeating Four-Number Combinations.

Pattern streaks are a tried and true method of keeping certain Patterns at the top of the heap! Will the Pattern streak in Lotto Texas hold and will Powerball have a streak on its hands Wednesday night?

The Encore Zone

The past, good or bad, isn’t forgotten that easily. If it were, then we wouldn’t hold grudges and reboots, love ‘em or hate ‘em, wouldn’t be around every corner! But, what about something more recent? It’s too early to be reminiscent of what happened over the weekend, but it looks like both Lotto Texas and Powerball caught a case of nostalgia!

July 10th was generous to Pattern streak and encore lovers. Another carryover was a lack of grand prize winners. Lotto Texas rose to a respectable $11 million while Powerball climbed to $194 million.

This Combination made its debut May 22nd, 2019.

Looks like Streak Fever may be in the air. Both lotteries played their most common Patterns, and both are notorious for Pattern streaks! Powerball doesn’t have one yet, so we’ll need to see if a Pattern three-peat happens Saturday night. As for Lotto Texas, will its Pattern streak continue?

Of Three-Peats and Defeats

“All things come to an end,” as they say. The (holiday) weekend is over and you’re just itching to go back to work, aren’t you? If only the weekend were longer!

Although July 6, 2019 was a quiet night, the lotteries worked their hardest to keep some momentum going. Lotto Texas saw a Pattern three-peat and Powerball’s jackpot continued its steady climb upwards. Both jackpots rose; Lotto Texas climbed to a respectable $10.5 million and Powerball stepped up to $180 million.

Three-Number Combination(s)

A rising jackpot was all Powerball needed to keep the momentum going! There were no repeating Three-Number Combinations.

A Pattern streak may be brewing in Lotto Texas and given that showing by Powerball’s {2-1-1-1-1} pattern, an encore Wednesday night wouldn’t be out of the question. Will either the streak, the encore, or even both come to fruition?

Four Score and an Encore

No rest for Lotto Texas and Powerball! Still pumped up from this past Saturday, these lotteries joined forces and made sure this July 3rd was one to remember. As we’ll see shortly, momentum wasn’t the only thing that carried over. With no grand prize winners in either lottery, the jackpots rose to $9.75 million in Lotto Texas, and $165 million in Powerball.

We last saw the 0 0 1 3 1 1 Specific Order December 7, 2016.

The lone repeating Three-Number Combination, 43, 45, and PB 25, debuted June 23, 2018.

The {3-2-1} Pattern is fond of three-peats, so that’s something to keep an eye out for Saturday. As for Powerball, that jackpot is starting to knock on Crazy Large’s door. Will that prize continue to rise or will someone claim the prize?

Lotto Texas & Powerball’s “June Boom”

Another month has come and gone but June isn’t just any other month. We’re now halfway through 2019 and depending on who you ask, we’re six months away from the start of a new decade! Time sure flies, eh?

But before we fret about the future and all its potential wonders (and horrors), let’s rewind back to the night of June 29, 2019. Lotto Texas and Powerball shared the honor of ending the month with climbing jackpots. No grand prize winners meant their respective jackpots rising to $9.25 million and $150 million. Couple those with a Pattern encore and the world debut of a Specific Order, the lotteries weren’t going to enter a new month lying down!

Saturday night saw the debut of the 1 2 0 0 2 1 Specific Order for Powerball! With that said, this Specific Order has now played in 3.23% of the 31 drawings where the General Order was [1-2-2-1]. This Specific Order has also played in 0.93% of the 107 drawings where {2-2-1-1} was the winning Pattern and in 0.26% of all 390 drawings.

Three-Number Combination(s)

There were no repeating Three-Number Combinations this time.

A strong finish for both Lotto Texas and Powerball means going into July with engines fired up and revving to go! The next drawing is right before the Fourth of July, so we’ll need to keep an eye for pre-holiday fireworks. Will they be in the form of a Pattern three-peat in Powerball or possibly a Pattern encore in Lotto Texas?

Lottery Summer Block Party

For the past couple of drawings, both Lotto Texas and Powerball took it easy with the wild plays and crazy jackpots. Summer is about relaxing, after all. But summer is also a time of boldness, and that’s what we saw June 22, 2019.

The first Saturday of summer saw Lotto Texas, usually the humble one, rule the night! This lottery’s boldness kept players on their toes and ultimately prevented anyone from winning the grand prize. The jackpot rose to $8.25 million as a result. Even though Lotto Texas dominated, Powerball didn’t slack off. Thanks to its own tricks, the jackpot over there rose to $122 million!

Powerball’s contribution to the block party was the debut of the 4 0 0 0 1 1 Specific Order! With that said, this Specific Order has now played in 20% of the five drawings where the General Order was [4-1-1]. This Specific Order has also played in 10% of the 10 drawings where {4-1-1} was the winning Pattern and in 0.26% of all 388 drawings.

Three-Number Combination(s)

Three-Number Combinations didn’t show up at the party.

A repeating Five-Number Combination is a tough act to follow! Not much can top it save maybe a Pattern streak or a crazy large jackpot. The crazy large jackpot is more Powerball’s territory, but the {3-2-1} Pattern in Lotto Texas might be able to squeeze out a streak to end the month. Although, one must wonder if another repeating Five-Number Combination will show up next week, or if this was one of those “Snow in Florida” kind of things.

Making the Quiet Roll?

Remember the honor roll back when we were kids? Whether a source of inspiration, or the source of future bullying victims, schools had a way of posting the names of those who made high marks. If schools have honor rolls, then what do lotteries have when they don’t make a big splash?

In some ways, June 19th was much like this past Saturday. Things were quiet on the repeating Combination front and one Pattern didn’t want to leave the spotlight. With no grand prize winners in either Lotto Texas or Powerball, their respective jackpots rose to $8.25 million and $108 million.

Four-Number Combination(s)

The lack of a Pattern encore was one reason Lotto Texas made the “Quiet Roll”. The other was for lack of repeating Four-Number Combinations.

Perhaps the biggest play of the evening was the {3-1-1-1} Pattern three-peat! Winning numbers 4, 18, 21, 26, 38, and PB 1 made the 80th appearance of this Pattern possible.

Three-Number Combination(s)

The {3-1-1-1} Pattern three-peat was all Powerball could muster. There wasn’t enough energy for a repeating Three-Number Combination.

These past couple of drawings have seen Lotto Texas and Powerball take a break from mad plays. If you’re one for Pattern streaks, Australia Plays, and whatnot, June isn’t over yet! Going into Saturday’s drawing, all that’s certain is the jackpots for the lotteries are higher than they were Wednesday night. Will the {3-1-1-1} Pattern aim for a Pattern streak?

Lotto Texas and Powerball Flee the Heat

You know it’s summer, or close to it, when it’s so hot outside you need to lower the car windows to let all the heat escape! When it’s that hot, the best remedies tend to be a dip in the pool, grabbing a snow cone or two, or staying put, giving glory to the wonders of air conditioning.

June 8th was so hot that Lotto Texas and Powerball didn’t exert themselves much. However, “taking it easy” did not mean “lazy” with these two! Both lotteries played their most-common Patterns. This “safe” play sent the grand prizes to $7.5 million and $66 million, respectively.

Three-Number Combination(s)

Powerball took a page out of this past Wednesday’s drawing and took a break from the repeating Three-Number Combinations.

Given that both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw their most common Patterns, we’ll have to see if Wednesday will feature an encore from either one. After all, part of how the {3-2-1} and {2-1-1-1-1} Patterns became so common in their respective lotteries is due to Pattern streaks! Encores are the steppingstone.

Lotto Texas and Powerball Hop into a Bar

The title of today’s post sounds like the setup for a corny joke, doesn’t it? Well, what happened June 5th, 2019 was no laughing matter! The dust may have settled in Powerball, but that meant more reason for it to get back up again. Although a far cry from the monstrous prize won at the beginning of the month, $53 million is not small change!

Lotto Texas, ever the levelheaded one, was no slouch, either. With no grand prize winner, its jackpot rose to a respectable $7.25 million.

Whoever thinks that only crazy-large jackpots are the way to wowing the public must not have paid attention to Wednesday night! Lotto Texas and Powerball showed that a more subtle approach can work just as well. Even so, the weekend is right around the corner and that’s when things tend to get rowdy. We’ll have to wait and see if that rowdiness appears or if the mellowness of June continues.

Sublime Lotto Texas and the Powerball Breakaway

Nothing like the start of a new month to highlight the differences between two lotteries, right? June 1, 2019 belonged to Powerball. Both it and “sister” Mega Millions love enormous jackpots. While the sister will be starting the month with a beast of a prize, Powerball broke rank. A plucky player from North Carolina brought the jackpot down to size, with $40 million being up for grabs Wednesday.

Lotto Texas may never see prizes of that magnitude, but it should never be discounted. The jackpot went unclaimed and quietly rose to $7 million.

The dust has settled in Powerball and June will be a much-welcomed break, jackpot-wise at least. There are other ways Powerball can keep the momentum going. Saturday night’s Pattern is fond of streaks, and an encore for Wednesday night is something to look out for. Same with Lotto Texas. Could June 5th be a night of double Pattern encores?
