Three-peats and Terrors

Monsters of the “number-y” kind were unleashed upon the world May 22, 2019. Powerball’s beast of a jackpot expanded to $308 million, probably inspired by sister Mega Millions. Lotto Texas, ever respectable, sprouted upward to $6.25 million. That ever respectable lottery was responsible for a few terrors of its own.

The {3-2-1} Pattern went for the three-peat with winning numbers 2, 9, 23, 37, 42, and 50. This Pattern has now played 872 times.

Of the 1657 Lotto Texas drawings, this Pattern has played 52.6% of the time. Recall that the {3-2-1} Pattern was last seen May 18, 2019.

Now with 121 drawings, the 2 1 3 Specific Order has played in 13.9% of the 872 drawings where {3-2-1} was the winning Pattern. Once all 1657 drawings have been taken into consideration, this Specific Order has played 7.30% of the time. Prior to Wednesday night, the 2 1 3 Specific Order played January 16, 2019.

Similar Spread

A similar spread is what happens when the difference between the numbers in two drawings are the same, but orders of said numbers are different. The spread for Wednesday night’s numbers was 07:14:14:05:08. This was similar to the spread seen on February 23, 2008. That night, the winning numbers were 2, 7, 21, 35, 43, and 50; the spread was 05:14:14:08:07.

Four-Number Combination(s)

With a three-peat and a similar spread, you’d think Lotto Texas would have its fill. There was enough room for three repeating Four-Number Combinations!

The [2-1-1-1-1] General Order, now with 38 appearances, has played in roughly 27% of the 141 drawings where {2-1-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern and in roughly 10% of all 379 drawings. Prior to Wednesday night, the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order played March 27, 2019.

Three-Number Combination(s)

There were no repeating Three-Number Combinations. The madness in Lotto Texas was enough for both lotteries.

Will a {3-2-1} Pattern streak solidify and could the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern see an encore Saturday night? Both Patterns love making repeat appearances!

The Jackpot Wave

Two things have risen this month: temperatures and lottery jackpots! If the results for May 18, 2019 are anything to go by, rising jackpots will continue to be in the forecast for the foreseeable future. They’ll come back down, eventually, but for now, a watch for Lotto Texas and Powerball is needed.

Powerball’s prize dwarfed that of Lotto Texas, but that’s to be expected. Even with its $288 million up for grabs Wednesday, it didn’t compare to Lotto Texas in the rumblings department. Save for a winner earlier this month, Lotto Texas has rebounded steadily and nicely found itself with a $6 million jackpot. Along the way, it rekindled its love for encores and playbacks.

Whether the {3-2-1} Pattern makes a three-peat appearance in Lotto Texas is something we’ll need to look for. Powerball, meanwhile, will have to make the difficult choice of knocking on $300 million or relinquishing its prize.

Two Cheers for Common Patterns!

The word “common” isn’t normally a word to describe a lottery. There’s nothing common about flirting with a billion dollars or a record-breaking Pattern streak, that’s for sure! Lottery analysts live for those sorts of things, you know. What is common, however, is a Pattern, or in this case, two Patterns.

We’ve reached the halfway point of the month, and to celebrate (if you can call it that), Lotto Texas and Powerball played their most common Patterns May 15th. Another, ahem, commonality, was keeping people away from the grand prizes. After Wednesday night, the jackpots rose to $5.75 million and $270 million, respectively.

Things look to heat up for at least one of these lotteries Saturday night. Both Patterns are notorious for streaks. After all, that’s part of why they are the most commonly seen! Pattern encores or no, someone is either going to walk away with the prize money or the prizes are going to continue to climb.

Uncommon Gifts for Mother’s Day

Breakfast (or brunch) in bed too cliché?

Couldn’t get the flowers she wanted?

Wanted to do something grand for Mother’s Day, but ran out of time?

Well, how about the lottery and if you’re in Texas, how about two of them?

May 11, 2019 had the honor of being the Saturday before Mother’s Day. Lotto Texas and Powerball honored moms everywhere by playing some of their most uncommonly seen Patterns. That, and the grand prizes in both lotteries went unclaimed. The prize for Lotto Texas climbed to $5.5 million and Powerball ascended to a monstrous $250 million. Yet, despite the monster growing in Powerball, Lotto Texas was the wilder of the two.

One way in which Lotto Texas was the wilder lottery was that it saw a playback! Both the {4-1-1} Pattern and the 1 4 1 Specific Order were last seen in the April 20, 2019 drawing.

Four-Number Combination(s)

Another element to Lotto Texas’s wild side was a repeating Four-Number Combination that played for the third time! Lone repeater 24, 32, 33, and 48 made its debut October 13th, 2012.

Regardless of how Saturday night turned out, Mother’s Day isn’t about fancy gifts for your mom. Sometimes, making something simple and spending time with her is the best gift of all. A Happy Mother’s Day to all our readers, wherever your mothers may be.

Looking to the week ahead, we’re nearing the home stretch for the school year in many places. Powerball certainly has a monster on its hands, and what a wild way to start summer if the beast is finally caught at the end of the month! Lotto Texas, on the other hand, will continue its mellowness, with a dash of wild here and there.

Hey, Hey, Hey! A Double Play for May

Lotto Texas and Powerball had the joint honor of kicking off the month. Great minds thought alike May 1st as both, yes both, lotteries saw Pattern encores! They also shared a love of thwarting all efforts to win the jackpot. With no grand prize winners in either Lotto Texas or Powerball, their respective pots are now $6.25 million and $199 million.

The Patterns That Rule Them All

Lotto Texas and Powerball bid adieu to the month this past Saturday. One word that describes the night of April 27, 2019 is “Explosive”! The weekend was ablaze with both lotteries playing their most commonly-seen Patterns, one of which made an encore. Additionally, the lotteries continued to enjoy the perks of repeating Three and Four-Number Combinations.

With no one to claim the grand prizes, Lotto Texas and Powerball will be heading into May with $6 million and $181 million dollars up for grabs, respectively.

With April in the rear-view mirror, May looks to be a month in “crazy- large jackpot” territory. Considering the Patterns that we saw this past Saturday, it’s possible that one or both will start the month with an encore. Of course, anything is possible in the lottery world, and we’ll need to watch Wednesday closely.

Number Pastures

April 24, 2019 marked the end of the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern streak in Powerball. It also marked the end of a short break from the madness brought about by said streak and an exact spread in Lotto Texas. Although not nearly as wild as what happened last week, Wednesday night was far from a snoozer. For starters, the night had its fill of repeating Combinations of both the Three-Number and Four-Number kind.

If you love crazy-high jackpots (we know you do!), Powerball is on its way to a $166 million grand prize Saturday night. Lotto Texas kept its cool, easing upwards to $5.75 million.

The {3-2-1} Pattern is fond of encores, and the {3-1-1-1} Pattern had dipped its toes in the encore pool from time to time. Encores or no, Lotto Texas and Powerball look to finish the month on a strong note. Will someone walk away with a grand prize Saturday night, or will May start to look like “crazy-large jackpot” territory?

For April, a Pattern Encore

The momentum was strong with Lotto Texas and Powerball April 3rd. There weren’t any jackpots in “crazy-rich” territory (think $100 million+) but they were robust! Lotto Texas played hard to get; with no grand prize winner, it’ll be going into Saturday with $14.5 million. Powerball settled down with a $68 million prize, for it too couldn’t claim a jackpot winner.

Now for the big question: Who saw the encore?

End of Month Lottery Ruckus

With the end of March comes the end of the first quarter of 2019. Now, the month may be over, but neither Lotto Texas nor Powerball are going into April quietly!

There were no Pattern streaks, let alone encores, and with the monster jackpot already won, it’s tempting to let our guards down. But lotteries care not for mortal feelings! The results from March 30, 2019 were good for those who enjoy robust jackpots. With no grand prize winners in either Lotto Texas or Powerball, their respective prizes are now $13.5 million and $54 million.

Will April shower us with Pattern streaks and large jackpots, or will the second quarter of 2019 start off with something more low-key?

Jackpot Madness: Spring Fever Edition

The calendar says “Winter”, but Lotto Texas and Powerball are ready for spring! March 16, 2019 saw a warm-up in the Lottery World, although “warm-up” may be a bit of an understatement. With no grand prize winners, Powerball’s jackpot officially went past the half-billion-dollar mark. More specifically, we’re looking at least $550 million going into Wednesday night! Lotto Texas had a touch of the “Jackpot Fever”, with a prize now at $11 million. Although not nearly as monstrous as Powerball, that’s plenty robust.

This Wednesday marks the official start of spring. Powerball’s prize is currently $550 million, but there’s a good chance it’ll climb again before the actual playdate. This is something to keep an eye on. On a lighter note, will either the {3-2-1} or {3-1-1-1} Pattern make an encore?
