Adding a Little Spice

As more cold air enters Lottery Trend country, Mega Millions heated up a bit in the December 6^th drawing. Tuesday’s drawing not only gifted us with the most commonly seen Pattern, but a repeating Three-Number Combination!

Unlike the {2-1-1-1-1} in Powerball, the {2-1-1-1-1} in Mega Millions is in no danger of being upstaged anytime soon. With 130 appearances, this Pattern has appeared in 31.5% of the 327 drawings. The 130^th appearance was made possible by winning numbers 13, 34, 48, 53, 63, and MB 12.

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern previously played last month in the November 15^th drawing.

The [1-1-2-1-1] General Order made its 30^th appearance, its first since the November 4^th, 2016 drawing. As of Tuesday, this General Order has appeared in 23.1% of the 130 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played, and 9.17% of the 327 drawings to date.

Next, the 1 0 1 2 1 1 Specific Order played for the eighth time. With that said, this Specific Order has now appeared in approximately 26.7% of the 30 drawings where the [1-1-2-1-1] General order has played. The 1 0 1 2 1 1 Specific Order has also appeared in 6.15% of the 130 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played, and in 2.45% of all Mega Millions drawings. Prior to Tuesday’s drawing, we last saw the 1 0 1 2 1 1 Specific Order on October 28th, 2016.

Last, but certainly not least, we saw the Three-Number Combination 48, 53, and MB 12 make a repeat appearance.

This Combination made its debut in the November 8^th, 2016 drawing.

What will Friday’s drawing have in store? Will a rarely-seen Pattern get to play, or will the {2-1-1-1-1} make an encore? Will we see another repeating Three-Number Combination?

December Special

Mega Millions got in the holiday spirit on December 2^nd by giving us a couple of gifts. Not only was it a generous way to start the weekend, it helped start our December coverage with a bang.

Friday’s Mega Millions drawing saw the 100^th appearance of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern. This occasion was marked by winning numbers 3, 33, 35, 49, 51, and MB 1.

The {2-2-1-1} Pattern has now played in 30.7% of the 326 Mega Millions drawings to date. We saw this Pattern play previously in the Black Friday (November 25, 2016) drawing last week.

Next, the [1-2-2-1] General Order made its 29^th appearance, and it too previously played in the Black Friday drawing. This General Order has now played in 29% of the 100 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has played, and approximately 8.90% of all Mega Millions drawings.

We now come to the 1 0 2 2 0 1 General Order, making its fourth appearance. This Specific order has now played in 13.8% of the 29 drawings where the [1-2-2-1] General Order appeared, 4% of the 100 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern appeared, and in 1.23% of the 326 Mega Millions drawings. To see when the 1 0 2 2 0 1 General Order previously played, we need to go back a couple of years. More specifically, the October 10, 2014 drawing.

Finally, Mega Millions gifted us with the presence of two repeating Three-Number Combinations. These combinations were

33, 49, and 51, which first played in Tuesday’s drawing and
35, 49, and MB 1, which first played November 1, 2013

As Christmas draws ever closer, will Mega Millions see a Pattern streak this month? Will there be more repeating Three-Number Combinations?

Remember, Remember, the Eleventh of November

November was quite a month for Mega Millions, full of excitement and upsets. On the surface, the November 29^th drawing looked…normal. No Australia Play, no encore or three-peat Pattern, and certainly no repeating Three-Number Combinations! Of course, even a “normal” drawing isn’t always what it seems to be in the lottery! What’s so special about the eleventh that we need to remember it, anyways?

For starters, the {3-1-1-1} Pattern was last seen on November 11^th, 2016. Tuesday’s drawing was the 52^nd appearance of this Pattern, made possible by winning numbers 22, 33, 49, 51, 59, and MB 8.

The {3-1-1-1} Pattern has now played in 16% of the 325 Mega Millions drawings to date.

Next, we come to the [1-1-3-1] General Order, making its 20^th appearance. This General Order has played in 38.5% of the 52 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 6.15% of all drawings. The [1-1-3-1] General Order was also previously seen in the November 11^th drawing.

We wrap up our November Mega Millions coverage with the fifth appearance of the 0 1 1 3 0 1 Specific Order. This Specific Order has now played in 25% of the 20 drawings where the [1-1-3-1] General Order has played. We’ve also seen it play in 9.62% of the 52 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 1.54% of all Mega Millions drawings. The 0 1 1 3 0 1 Specific Order also played in the November 11^th drawing!

December is on its merry way. Will Mega Millions mellow out or will it end the year with a bang?

Black Friday Rumblings

The Christmas season officially began in Lottery Trend Country with Black Friday. People far and wide crowded the malls and the big box stores for discounts and simply knocking out some, or all, their Christmas shopping. Mega Millions, having held out on us last time, gifted us with an interesting development.

The {2-2-1-1} Pattern made an encore appearance. Its 99^th appearance was thanks to winning numbers 44, 47, 49, 69, 75, and MB 10.

As of November 25^th, 2016, the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has played in approximately 30.6% of the 324 drawings. Recall that this Pattern previously played earlier this week in the November 22^nd drawing.

The [1-2-2-1] General Order made its 28^th appearance, and it also previously played in the November 22^nd drawing. The [1-2-2-1] General Order has played in 28.3% of the 99 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern played, and 8.64% of all Mega Millions drawings.

Next, the 0 0 1 2 2 1 Specific Order played for the third time. This Specific Order has now played in 10.7% of the 28 drawings where the [1-2-2-1] General Order has played. Going further, the 0 0 1 2 2 1 Specific Order has played in 3.03% of the 99 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern played and 0.926% of all drawings. Prior to Friday’s drawing, the 0 0 1 2 2 1 Specific Order previously played in the August 12^th, 2014 drawing.

We saw a Three-Number Combination repeat, thanks to numbers 44, 69, and MB 10.

Snippet of Three-Number Combinations. The repeating Combination is highlighted in the red box.

This Combination made its debut August 12^th, 2016, exactly two years after the Specific Order’s prior appearance. A development like this does not happen very often.

As we begin to wrap up November, what will Mega Millions gift us with next week?

A Thanksgiving Lull

‘Twas two nights before Thanksgiving and all through the land

Preparations began so things wouldn’t get out of hand.

Meat was prepped for smoking and roasting

While Mega Millions saw no need for boasting.

The Pattern and General Order saw nothing new

But a Specific Order made its debut!

The November 22^nd drawing saw the 98^th appearance of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, thanks to winning numbers 1, 43, 45, 66, 69, and MB 7.

As of Tuesday, the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has played in 30.3% of the 323 Mega Millions drawings. We previously saw this Pattern a little over a month ago, in the October 18^th drawing.

The [1-2-2-1] General Order was also last seen in the October 18^th drawing. Tuesday’s drawing brought this General Order’s tally up to 27 appearances. The [1-2-2-1] General Order has played in 27.6% of the 98 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and 8.36% of all Mega Millions drawings.

The biggest draw of the evening was the debut of the 1 0 2 0 2 1 Specific Order. This Specific Order has now played in 3.70% of the 27 drawings where the [1-2-2-1] was the General Order of the evening. Additionally, the 1 0 2 0 2 1 Specific Order has played 1.02% of the 98 drawings with the {2-2-1-1} as the winning Pattern, and approximately 0.31% of all 323 drawings.

When Mega Millions plays again, it will be Black Friday

And thousands of people will be pushing each other out of the way.

Will the lull we’ve seen this month stay

Or, will we see a more robust play?

Embracing Normality

Thanksgiving is fast approaching in Lottery Trend Country and people far and wide are making their preparations and debating on which team to root for that day. Mega Millions took a more measured approach. The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern did not make an encore appearance, and there were no major plays nor upsets. The November 18^th, 2016 Mega Millions drawing could be summed up with one word: “normal”, or what would pass as such.

The 21^st appearance of the {3-2-1} Pattern was marked with winning numbers 31, 32, 49, 55, 58, and MB 15.

As of Friday, the {3-2-1} Pattern has played in 6.52% of all 322 drawings to date. We last saw this Pattern not too long ago in the November 8, 2016 drawing.

The [2-3-1] General Order made its twelfth appearance and was last seen in the November 1, 2016 drawing. With that said, the [2-3-1] Pattern has appeared in 57.1% of the 21 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has played and 3.73% of all 322 drawings.

Despite the normalcy exhibited by Friday’s drawing, the most extraordinary event of the evening was the debut of the 0 0 2 3 0 1 Specific Order. This now means that this Specific Order has played in approximately 8.33% of the 12 drawings that the [2-3-1] General Order has played. Going further, the 0 0 2 3 0 1 Specific Order has played in 4.76% of the 21 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern appeared, and 0.31% of all Mega Millions drawings.

Will Mega Millions continue to wrap itself in the comforting blanket of normality? Will there be an upset just in time for Thanksgiving, or even Black Friday?

Everything’s Cool Now

We’re halfway through November, and it looks like autumn has finally arrived for us in Lottery Trend country. As some sense of normality tries to break through in the “real world”, the November 15^th Mega Millions drawing was about as “normal” as you could get.

For starters, we saw the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, thanks to winning numbers 9, 17, 23, 57, 71, and MB 6. With 129 appearances, the {2-1-1-1-1} is the most commonly played Pattern by a healthy margin.

With that said, the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played in 40.2% of the 321 Mega Millions drawings to date. This Pattern was previously seen earlier this month in the November 4^th drawing.

The General Order of the evening was [1-2-1-1-1], making its 39^th appearance. As of Tuesday night, this General Order has appeared in 30.2% of the drawings that the {2-1-1-1-1} has played. When taking all 321 drawings into account, we see that the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order has played 12.1% of the time. Prior to Tuesday, the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order was previously seen in the October 21^st, 2016 drawing.

We conclude our coverage with the eighth appearance of the 1 2 0 1 1 1 Specific Order. This Specific Order has now played in 20.5% of the drawings where the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order has appeared. When looking at the 129 drawings where {2-1-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern, this becomes 6.20% of the time. The total percentage, when taking all 321 drawings into account, is 2.49%. To see when the 1 2 0 1 1 1 Specific Order previously played, we need to go back to the September 27^th, 2016 drawing.

As we head to the weekend and (US) Thanksgiving preparations get underway, will Mega Millions continue to give off a sense of “normality”, or will there be a surprise?

Calmer Waters

The November 11, 2016 Mega Millions drawing was a turning point. The lottery world provided a much-needed sanctuary from all the madness in the “real world” as of late. In contrast to what we saw in Tuesday’s drawing, Friday’s Mega Millions kicked off the weekend in a low-key manner.

We start with the 51^st appearance of the {3-1-1-1} Pattern, brought forth by winning numbers 16, 40, 47, 53, 59, and MB 11.

The {3-1-1-1} Pattern has now played in 15.9% of the 320 drawings to date. We last saw this Pattern at the beginning of last month: October 4^th, to be precise.

The [1-1-3-1] General Order made its 19^th appearance, its first since the June 3, 2016 drawing. This General Order has appeared in 37.3% of the 51 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern was the winning Pattern. When we take all 320 drawings into account, the statistic becomes 5.94%.

Last, but certainly not least, the 0 1 1 3 0 1 Specific Order made its 4^th appearance. The 0 1 1 3 0 1 Specific Order has played in 21.5% of the 19 drawings where the [1-1-3-1] General Order was seen. This becomes 7.84% of the time when looking at the 51 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern appeared, and 1.25% of the time when looking at all 320 drawings. To see when the 0 1 1 3 0 1 Specific Order previously played, we need to go back to October 30, 2015.

As Thanksgiving and Christmas plans are beginning to be put into action, what gifts will Mega Millions bestow in the week ahead?

A Night of Upsets

We’re in the middle of yet another history-making week. November 8^th was truly a night to remember in more ways than one. While an upset was occurring in the U.S. election, the lottery world saw some rumblings in Mega Millions.

One such rumbling was the 20^th appearance of the {3-2-1} Pattern. The winning numbers on Tuesday night were as follows: 46, 48, 53, 61, 74, and MB 2.

The {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared in 6.27% of the 319 drawings to date. Only two other Patterns have played fewer times: {4-1-1} (12, which puts it at 3.76%) and {5-1} (has yet to play). Prior to Tuesday night, we last saw the {3-2-1} Pattern in the November 1^st drawing a week prior.

The [3-2-1] General Order made its ninth appearance and to see when it last played, we’d need to go back to the March 29^th, 2016 drawing. With that said, the [3-2-1] General Order has played in 45% of the 20 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has played. After taking all 319 drawings into account, this becomes 2.82% of the time.

The second rumbling of the evening was the debut of the 0 0 0 3 2 1 Specific Order. We’ve now seen the 0 0 0 3 2 1 Specific Order play in 11.1% of the 9 drawings where the [3-2-1] General Order has appeared. When looking at the 20 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has played, this shrinks to 2.82%. Finally, when taking all 319 drawings into account, the 0 0 0 3 2 1 Specific Order has played 0.31% of the time.

The last Mega Millions rumbling of the evening came in the repeat appearance of the Three-Number Combination 46, 48, and 74.

Three-Number Combinations snippet from lotterytrend-megamillions.com. The repeating Combo is in the red box.

This Combination made its debut in the May 13^th, 2014 drawing.

Now that we’re entering calmer waters, will we see another Specific Order debut soon? Will the {3-2-1} Pattern go for an encore?

New Month Order

As World Series hysteria reached its apex and the U.S. presidential campaigns entered the home stretch, Mega Millions once again came at us with its own brand of madness! While the Pattern we saw was a common one, we saw something unusual in the Three-Number Combinations. In fact, we here at Lottery Binge can say that the night of November 4^th, 2016, is one for the Mega Millions history books.

Friday marked the 128^th appearance of the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. The winning numbers were as follows: 10, 29, 32, 44, 46, and MB 10.

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has now played in 40.3% of the 318 drawings that have occurred so far. Prior to Friday’s drawing, we last saw this Pattern a week ago in the October 28^th drawing.

The General Order of the evening was [1-1-2-1-1], now having made its 29^th appearance. Like the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, the [1-1-2-1-1] General Order was previously seen in the October 28^th drawing. Out of the 128 drawings with {2-1-1-1-1} as the winning Pattern, the [1-1-2-1-1] General Order has played 22.7% of the time. When we look at all 318 drawings, this shrinks to 9.12%.

The 1 1 2 1 0 1 Specific Order made its ninth appearance, its first since the March 1^st, 2016 drawing. Given that there are now 29 drawings with [1-1-2-1-1] as the General Order, the 1 1 2 1 0 1 Specific Order has played approximately 31% of the time. When taking the 128 drawings in which the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, the 1 1 2 1 0 1 Specific Order has played 7.03% of the time. This becomes 2.83% of the time when we look at all 318 drawings.

And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for. There were four Three-Number Combinations that repeated, but here’s the catch.

Are you ready?

Some of these Combinations have played twice before!

To keep things a bit simpler, we’re going to break it down into the Three-Number Combinations that have appeared once before, and the Combinations that have played twice already.

The ones that have only played once before are:

29, 32, and 46, which first played February 21^st, 2014 and
32, 46, and MB 10, which first played July 31^st, 2015.

The ones that have played twice before are:

10, 29, and MB 10, which first played March 4^th, 2014 and again on May 19^th, 2015, and
29, 46, and MB 10, which first played June 27^th, 2014 and again on July 5^th, 2016.

The Three-Number Combinations that have played twice are highlighted in red. Combinations that have played three times are highlighted in blue.

As one historic week comes to an end and we enter another one, will there be other Three-Number Combinations that play for a third time? Will an extremely rare Pattern get its chance to play?
