Candy, Champagne, and Numbers

Ah, Valentine’s Day. Not only does it mark the halfway point in February, it’s a day of love and romance. It’s a day of makeups and breakups, a day full of chocolates, cards, candy, and…Mega Millions? Well, yes! This year, a Mega Millions drawing fell on this holiday. Grab that box of chocolates and take a gander at the analysis for the February 14, 2017 drawing. Leftover champagne drinking is optional.

Tuesday’s winning Pattern was the {2-1-1-1-1}, having made its 138^th appearance. The winning numbers were 7, 11, 33, 60, 68, and MB 15.

This Pattern has now played in 39.8% of the 347 Mega Millions drawings and remained the most commonly played Pattern. We last saw the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern exactly one week prior in the February 7, 2017 drawing.

Like the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order was also previously seen on February 7^th. Now with 36 appearances, this General Order has played in 26.1% of the 138 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 10.4% of all drawings.

The 2 0 1 1 1 1 Specific Order made its eighth appearance, its first since the August 2, 2016 drawing. As of Tuesday, this Specific Order has played in approximately 22.2% of the 36 drawings where the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order has appeared, 5.80% of the 138 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 2.31% of all drawings.

For those of you who are positively in love with repeating Three-Number Combinations, you’re in luck! The Three-Number Combination 11, 68, and MB 15 made its second appearance.

The repeating Three-Number Combination is highlighted at the bottom.

This Combination made its debut in the October 14, 2014 drawing.

As we march onward through the second half of February, will the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern make an encore, or will a rarely seen Pattern get a shot? Will there be a lull before a Mardi Gras explosion?

February Huff n’ Puff

In our last Mega Millions post, we were wondering whether the February 10^th drawing would be low-key or an explosion of numbers. Although it was a far cry from the six-peat we saw last summer, or even an Australia Play, Friday’s drawing had a bit more oomph to it.

The {2-2-1-1} Pattern made its 108^th appearance, with winning numbers 32, 39, 51, 62, 75 and MB 14.

This Pattern has now played in 31.2% of the 346 drawings to date, and was seen exactly one week prior in the February 3^rd drawing. Unlike the {2-2-1-1} Pattern in Powerball, this {2-2-1-1} Pattern has a way to go before catching up to the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern.

The [2-1-2-1] General Order made its 39^th appearance, its first since the January 31^st, 2017 drawing. This General Order has now played in 36.1% of the 108 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 11.3% of all drawings.

Next, the 0 0 2 1 2 1 Specific Order played for the fourth time. This Specific Order has now played in 10.3% of the 39 drawings where the [2-1-2-1] Pattern has appeared, 3.70% of the 108 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern appeared, and in 1.16% of all drawings. Prior to Friday’s drawing, the 0 0 2 1 2 1 Specific Order previously played in the April 8th, 2016 drawing ten months ago.

The biggest event in an otherwise low-key evening was the repeat appearance of two Three-Number Combinations:

39, 51, and 75, which debuted in the January 8^th, 2016 drawing, and
39, 51, and MB 14, which debuted in the May 9^th, 2014 drawing

The next Mega Millions drawing falls on Valentine’s Day. Will someone strike the jackpot, or will those numbers cause broken hearts?

Brought Back Down to Earth

Super Bowl LI has come and gone. The New England Patriots won another Super Bowl in what will be remembered as a historical game. As the excitement wore down and everyone went back to their lives, Mega Millions followed suit. Instead of a three-peat of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, another Pattern played entirely. There were also no repeating Three-Number Combinations to speak of.

The February 7^th, 2017 Mega Millions drawing gifted us with the 137^th appearance of the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. The winning numbers this time around were 23, 28, 37, 56, 71, and MB 12.

This Pattern has now played in 39.7% of the 345 drawings to date. We last saw the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern in the January 27^th, 2017 drawing.

Next, the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order made its 35^th appearance, its first since the January 20^th, 2017 drawing. This General Order has played in 25.5% of the 137 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 10.1% of all drawings.

Our Mega Millions coverage concludes with the 0 2 1 1 1 1 Specific Order, making its seventh appearance. As of Tuesday’s drawing, this Specific Order has played in 20% of the 35 drawings where the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order appeared, 5.11% of the 137 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern appeared, and in 2.03% of all drawings. The 0 2 1 1 1 1 Specific Order was last seen just two days before Christmas in the December 23^rd, 2016 drawing.

Will Friday night’s drawing be low-key or will it be an explosive start to the weekend?

Touchdown, Mega Millions

Lottery Trend country is fully in the grips of Super Bowl weekend. Mega Millions itself may be impartial to whichever team wins, and (thankfully) can’t get fat from all the Super Bowl treats, but that didn’t mean it couldn’t mark the occasion in its own way. How, you wonder? The February 3^rd drawing saw an encore appearance of Tuesday’s Pattern, and saw a Three-Number Combination repeat!

For those who you keeping score, the {2-2-1-1} Pattern from Tuesday night played again in Friday’s drawing. This time around, the winning numbers were 3, 6, 29, 30, 64, and MB 3.

Now with 107 appearances, this Pattern has played in 31.1% of the 344 Mega Millions drawings to date. While impressive, it still has a ways to go before even thinking about overtaking the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, which has played 136 times.

Getting back to the {2-2-1-1} Pattern now, the [2-2-1-1] General Order made its 38^th appearance. This General Order has now played in 35.5% of the 107 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in approximately 11% of all drawings. We haven’t seen the [2-2-1-1] General Order in quite some time; it last appeared in the July 26, 2016 drawing.

If you thought six months (give or take a week) was a long time for a General Order to play again, then the 2 2 0 0 1 1 Specific Order hadn’t been seen for a little over a year. This Specific Order previously played in the November 17, 2015 drawing. Now having played seven times, the 2 2 0 0 1 1 Specific Order has played in 18.4% of the 38 drawings where the [2-2-1-1] General Order has appeared, 6.54% of the 107 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 2.03% of all drawings.

One of the biggest plays of the night was a repeat appearance of the Three-Number Combination 29, 64, and MB 3, which made its debut in the December 6, 2013 drawing.

Whether you’re a football fan, or just watching for the halftime show, inquiring minds want to know just one thing. Will the {2-2-1-1} Pattern go for a three-peat?

January in the Rear View Mirror

January has now come and gone. The days are getting longer (or shorter, depending on where you live), the Super Bowl is a few days away, and spring is just around the corner (right?). Mega Millions was the lucky lottery to end the month this year. While not a big blowout, the month did end on a high note, especially for those of you out there hoping for a repeating Three-Number Combination. Was it the Combination you were hoping for? Let’s find out!

The January 31st, 2017 drawing marked the 106th appearance of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern with winning numbers 3, 14, 27, 62, 72, and MB 4.

This Pattern has now played in 30.9% of the 343 Mega Millions drawings to date. We last saw the {2-2-1-1} Pattern earlier in the month on January 6^th.

The [2-1-2-1] General Order made is 38^th appearance, and like the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, previously played on January 6^th. This General Order has now played in 35.8% of the 106 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has played, and in 11.1% of the 343 drawings.

The 2 1 0 0 2 1 Specific Order played for the fourth time, making its first appearance since the February 26^th, 2016 drawing. This Specific Order has also played in 10.5% of the 38 drawings where the [2-1-2-1] General Order has played, 3.77% of the 106 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has played, and 1.17% of the 343 drawings.

The repeating Three-Number Combination of the evening was 14, 72, and MB 4, which made its debut in the September 27^th, 2016 drawing.

Heading into Super Bowl weekend, will Mega Millions score a touchdown?

Everything’s Coming Up January

Friday night has come and gone, and compared to Tuesday’s drawing, this Mega Millions was quiet. What with Super Bowl fever sweeping across Lottery Trend country, it wouldn’t be out of the ordinary to expect Australia Plays, or repeating Three-Number Combinations, or even a combination of the two. This time around, Mega Millions decided to conserve its energy, perhaps for when Super Bowl weekend truly is upon us.

Nevertheless, the January 27, 2017 drawing marked the encore appearance of the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. The winning numbers were 17, 37, 53, 54, 61, and MB 8.

With 136 appearances, this Pattern remains the most commonly seen Pattern in Mega Millions, and has played in 39.8% of the 342 drawings to date. Recall that we saw the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern in Tuesday’s drawing.

The [1-1-2-1-1] General Order made its 32^nd appearance, its first since the January 10, 2017 drawing a couple of weeks ago. This General Order has now played in 23.5% of the 136 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 9.36% of all drawings.

Our Mega Millions coverage concludes with the eighth appearance of the 0 1 1 2 1 1 Specific Order. This Specific Order has now played in 25% of the 32 drawings where the [1-1-2-1-1] General Order has appeared, 5.88% of the 136 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 2.34% of all drawings. To see when the 0 1 1 2 1 1 Specific Order was last seen, we need to go back to January 15, 2016.

Will Mega Millions build up momentum as we get closer to Super Bowl LI?

Friday Nights’ Supreme

Who doesn’t love Friday? For most of us, it’s the last day before the weekend, and of course, another Mega Millions day. What made the January 24^th drawing one for the record books was that everything, yes, everything, either previously played or debuted on a Friday night!

For starters, the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern made an encore. The 135^th appearance was thanks to winning numbers 8, 42, 54, 63, 67, and MB 11.

This Pattern has now played in 39.6% of the 341 drawings. Recall that the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern previously played in this past Friday’s drawing.

Next, the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order made its 31^st appearance, its first since the Friday the 13^th drawing. This General Order has played in approximately 23% of the 135 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern appeared, and in 9.09% of all drawings.

Like the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order, the 1 0 1 1 2 1 Specific Order was last seen in the Friday the 13^th drawing. Now with 12 appearances, this Specific Order has played in 38.7% of the 31 drawings where the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has appeared, 8.89% of the 135 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 3.52% of all drawings.

Our Mega Millions coverage concludes with the repeating Three-Number Combination 54, 63, and MB 11.

This Combination made its debut on Friday, June 24, 2016!

It’s not often that we see occurrences like the one from Tuesday. With roughly a week-and-a-half to go before Super Bowl LI, will Mega Millions bring on the weekend with a rough-and-tumble style, or will it take on a calmer demeanor?

Thirteen is a Powerful Number

If you were to ask a fellow blog follower, he or she would probably say the title of this post is somewhat ironic. In our coverage of the Friday the 13^th Mega Millions, we mentioned the irrelevancy of whether the date was unlucky or not. It just so happened that, when looking at our “Previously played” dates for the January 20, 2017 Mega Millions, the number “13” popped up frequently.

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern remained the most commonly seen Pattern, thanks to winning numbers 7, 9, 24, 41, 53, and MB 14.

With 134 appearances, this Pattern has played in 39.4% of the 340 Mega Millions drawings. To make things even more interesting, the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern previously played on…Friday the 13^th!

The General Order this time around was [2-1-1-1-1], and we last saw it in the December 23, 2016 drawing. Now with 34 appearances, this General Order has played in 25.4% of the 134 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 10% of all drawings.

Next, the 2 1 1 1 0 1 Specific Order made its fifth appearance, its first since the September 13, 2016 drawing. This Specific Order has now played in 14.7% of the 34 drawings where the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order has appeared, and in 1.47% of all drawings.

Our repeating Three-Number Combinations of the evening were as follows:

7, 9, 24 (Debuted October 13, 2015)
9, 24, 41 (Debuted September 4, 2014)

Will the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern make an encore appearance on Tuesday night?

Dropping Down to 16, 15,…

January. A month of transition, in more ways than one. A month of new beginnings, and a month where one foot seems to be facing towards the future, and another foot is in the past. Tuesday night’s Mega Millions drawing was a shout-out to a very recent past, and it had an interesting split. The Pattern, General Order, and Specific Order had all previously played at or near the end of last year. The repeating Three-Number Combinations of the evening made their debut in 2015.

The {3-1-1-1} Pattern made its 55^th appearance in the January 17^th Mega Millions drawing. The occasion was marked by winning numbers 20, 31, 54, 56, 59, and MB 3.

This Pattern has now played in 16.2% of the 339 drawings to date, and previously played in the December 30^th, 2016 drawing.

Like the {3-1-1-1} Pattern, the [1-1-3-1] General Order was last seen in the December 30^th drawing. Now with 22 appearances, this General Order has played in 40% of the 55 drawings that the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared and in 6.49% of all drawings.

The 0 1 1 3 0 1 Specific Order made its sixth appearance, its first since the November 29^th, 2016 drawing. As of Tuesday, this Specific Order has played in 27.3% of the 22 drawings where the [1-1-3-1] General Order appeared, 10.9% of the 55 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has played, and in 1.77% of all Mega Millions drawings.

Tuesday’s drawing gifted us with two repeating Three-Number Combinations:

31, 56, 59 (debuted January 20^th, 2015)
20, 56, 59 (debuted November 27^th, 2015)

Snippet of Three-Number Combinations. The repeating Combinations are in the red box.

What makes the first Three-Number Combination fascinating is that it made its second appearance almost exactly two years to the day it debuted. Imagine how impressive it would’ve been if this Combination had played this Friday instead!

Speaking of Friday, what will Mega Millions have in store for that night?

Nothing Unlucky Here

For those of you who don’t pay much attention to the calendar, Friday’s Mega Millions drawing happened to fall on the 13^th. Whether you believe Friday the 13^th to be unlucky or not, that didn’t prevent Mega Millions from knocking it out of the park.

We saw the {2-1-1-1-1} make an encore appearance Friday night. The 133^rd appearance of this Pattern was thanks to winning numbers 10, 44, 58, 74, 75, and MB 11.

Having now played in 39.3% of 338 drawings, the {2-1-1-1-1} retains its title as Most Commonly Played Mega Millions Pattern. Recall that this Pattern played in Tuesday’s drawing.

The [1-1-1-2-1] Specific Order made its 30^th appearance, its first since the October 14^th, 2016 drawing. As of Friday, this Specific Order has played in 22.6% of the 30 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 8.88% of all drawings.

The 1 0 1 1 2 1 Specific Order made its 11^th appearance and has now played in approximately 36.67% of the 30 drawings where the [1-1-1-2-1] was the General Order of the evening. This Specific Order has also played in 8.27% of the 133 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 3.25% of all drawings. Prior to Friday, the 1 0 1 1 2 1 Specific Order played in the August 16^th, 2016 drawing.

Our Mega Millions coverage for the week concludes with the repeat appearances of two Three-Number Combinations:

44, 58, MB 11 (Debuted January 16^th, 2015) and
10, 74, 75 (Debuted April 1^st, 2014. No foolin’!)

Looking ahead to next week, will the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern go for a three-peat?
