Saturday Night Boomerang

As August begins to fade into September, the summer holidays are over, or will be soon enough. With another summer coming and going, there are a couple of things that won’t fade away on a schedule. Jackpots! Then again, why should they? Jackpots aren’t affected all that much by human affairs, unless of course you consider adding another day their lotteries have drawings.

Nevertheless, the week ended the way it started. August 28, 2021 featured a playback for one lottery and a Pattern three-peat for the other, which only fed into their ever-growing jackpots. As Lotto Texas and Powerball psyched themselves up for September (there’s still one more August drawing to go), their respective jackpots grew to $13.25 million and $332 million.

Lotto Texas and Powerball are settling in just fine on Monday nights. Freyja Harris will return tomorrow to give you the scoop on Mega Millions. Until next Tuesday, this is Romulun Harris signing off. Stay safe!

The Golden Lottery Spectacle

After two weeks of triumph, defeat, and spectacle, the Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo have come to an end. With the flame extinguished, it’s back to life in the “new normal”. That is until next year, when Beijing hosts the 2022 Winter Olympic Games and Paris hosts the Summer 2024 games. Hopefully by next summer the crowds will return!

Meanwhile, the lotteries put on a grand display of their own. August 7, 2021 was when the {3-2-1} Pattern showed off for the third time in Lotto Texas, and an Australia Play ruled Powerball. More importantly, both lotteries saw a boon in their jackpots. Lotto Texas hit the $10 million checkpoint, and Powerball ascended to $241 million.

Three-Number Combinations

No repeating Three-Number Combinations were present Saturday night.

Will either the {3-2-1} Pattern or Powerball’s Australia Play return Wednesday night?

Dashing Over the $200 Million Line

August 6, 2021 was the start to a bittersweet weekend for many. The Olympic Games in Tokyo entered the home stretch, and parents across the U.S. started engaging in the annual ritual that is “Back to School” shopping. In some places, school has already started back up. As people dashed on the field and through the stores, Mega Millions dashed over the $200 million line!

General Lottery Analysis

By the power of an Australia Play, the Mega Millions jackpot jumped to $208 million. With winning numbers 9, 18, 40, 46, 69 and MB 9, the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, [1-1-1-1-1-1] General Order, and the 1 1 1 1 1 1 Specific Order made their 22^nd appearance.

Will the Australia Play come back for Tuesday night’s drawing?

Meditating Mega Millions

With all the chaos and confusion that has gripped the world, especially for the past year-and-a-half, one thing still manages to hold strong. The Tokyo Olympics will officially start Friday, even with thousands (more like millions) calling for the ordeal to be cancelled altogether. That Virus is still raging, and with the absence of massive crowds of spectators, not to mentions athletes falling ill, this grand sporting event just won’t be the same this year.

Mega Millions had a knack for reading the room Tuesday night. A {2-2-1-1} Pattern three-peat wasn’t featured. Instead, Mega Millions took the time to reflect on a different Pattern. This lottery not only boosted its inner well-being, but its jackpot. The prize grew to $138 million.

General Lottery Analysis

July 20, 2021 saw the Australia Play make its 21^st appearance with winning numbers 10, 26, 30, 52, 57 and MB 10.

With that said, the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, [1-1-1-1-1-1] General Order, and 1 1 1 1 1 1 Specific Order have now played in 3.04% of the 691 Mega Millions drawings. Prior to Tuesday night, an Australia Play was seen in the May 14, 2021 drawing.

Three-Number Combinations

Repeating Three-Number Combination 52, 57 and MB 10 debuted April 5, 2016.

Will we see this quieter Mega Millions again Friday night, or will it embrace a more extroverted approach?

Playback Dreams

As we venture further into July, we must face the inevitable. Whether it’s within a few weeks or even a few days, the prospect of work and/or school looms over the horizon. July 7, 2021 was one such opportunity to keep the beast at bay. Those millions would allow for more freedom. Freedom like early retirement, stock market investment, college tuition/loan payoff, and for the brave (foolish?), bypassing college altogether.

If you played Wednesday night, you’ll need to deal with work and school a bit longer. However, there was a silver lining! With the six winning numbers going unpicked in both Lotto Texas and Powerball, their respective jackpots rose to $7.25 million and $127 million. And we have a playback to thank, at least in one lottery.

That night, 18, 26, 32, 45, 49 and 54 were the winning numbers, with a spread of 08:06:13:04:05. The differences between numbers were the same but of course, the orders (and the numbers played) were different.

Four-Number Combinations

Lotto Texas had the energy to put up a repeating Four-Number Combination that played twice before!

The 2 2 2 Specific Order coincided with the {2-2-2} Pattern, also in its 258^thappearance and sharing the same date. As a reminder, this is called the Australia Play, because just as Australia is a country and continent, in and of itself, the {2-2-2} Pattern is a specific order and a Pattern in and of itself.

There were no Four-Number Combination repeats.

Mega Millions on the Edge

Onward and upward. That phrase might as well be Mega Millions’ motto for the past three months! So far, nothing has come along to uproot the oak tree of a jackpot. With each drawing, the roots dig deeper, and the tree grows taller.

Not even the whimsical Australia Play of May 14, 2021 was able to knock the tree down. The jackpot grew to a mighty $468 million!
