Saturday Night Spread and a Dose of Playback

As one lottery flirts with the possibility of a billion-dollar jackpot, two lotteries proved they were just as worthy of attention. Both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw a shakeup Saturday night. Lotto Texas, ever graceful, took a chance with an uncommon Pattern. The payoff was a jackpot that grew to $8 million. On the Powerball side, the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern streak came to an end and with it, a jackpot that grew to $130 million.

For All Lotterykind

July 20, 1969 was the day humanity first set foot on the Moon. On that same day 53 years later, many set foot in their nearest convenience store and purchased Lotto Texas and Powerball tickets, hoping to reach the stars. Instead, their feet stayed firmly planted on the ground, as these lotteries took to breaking out Pattern encores. Lotto Texas’s jackpot jumped to $7.75 million, and Powerball’s, fueled by a Pattern streak, soared to $119 million.

Summer Spread & Summer Streak

Whether the summers really are getting longer and hotter or it’s just you, air conditioning is a blessing. All you need to do is turn down the thermostat, plop on the couch, and let the cool air blow. That is, unless the air conditioner breaks down and you’re dripping in sweat. You may then be tempted to take off some or even all your clothes and walk around just to feel a breeze. Thankfully, lotteries don’t engage in that kind of streak. Interestingly, things get hotter in the lottery world whenever there’s a streak. A Pattern streak, that is!

July 16, 2022 was the night that Powerball’s {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern got into streak mode. Entering “streak mode” unleashed a bombardment of repeating Three-Number Combinations and helped push the jackpot to a robust $89 million. Meanwhile, Lotto Texas took to a different approach. Ever the classy one, this lottery switched out Patterns, which pushed the jackpot to $7.25 million.

Leftovers, Anyone?

Across many households in many languages, people are asking, “Hey (name)? What’s for dinner?” In some places, (name) is planning to cook a new dish. In others, (name) announces “Leftovers.” Sometimes, leftovers don’t seem very appetizing. Just the name alone makes some stomachs churn.

Now, leftovers aren’t inherently bad. Food waste should be minimized as much as possible, and left-over leftovers can be frozen, provided they’re still fresh. For lotteries, leftovers are all but a certainty. Some leftovers have more kick to them than others.

After a holiday weekend, it was fitting that something carried over into Lotto Texas and Powerball. The leftovers served up on July 6, 2022 gave the jackpots a shot of extra flavor. The Lotto Texas jackpot became $6.25 million, and Powerball’s jackpot continued onward to $48 million.

Here’s a fun fact: July 2nd is the actual halfway point of the year. We are officially 50% done with 2022! Since the mid-year point is knee-deep in summer in Lottery Trend country, what better way to celebrate than jumping into the pool (and watching fireworks)? There are your above-ground pools, your lap pools, your indoor pools and so on, but what about number pools? They may not be filled with water, but they have a way of changing people’s lives.

Lotto Texas and Powerball hung out by the playback pool Saturday night. One lottery cannonballed into the pool while the other stuck their toes in. The result for both lotteries was the same: rising jackpots! Lotto Texas’s jackpot jumped to $5.75 million, and Powerball’s jackpot rebounded to $26 million.

Lotto Texas

Lotto Texas jumped right into an Australia Play. With winning numbers 6, 17, 19, 36, 49 and 51, both the {2-2-2} Pattern and the 2 2 2 Specific Order have played 281 times.

An Australia Play has been featured in 13.9% of the 2027 Lotto Texas drawings and was last seen June 25, 2022.

Remember: All Australia Plays are playbacks, but not all playbacks are Australia Plays.

Four-Number Combinations

A couple of old repeating Four-Number Combinations wanted to have a spot by the pool:

Powerball

General Lottery Analysis

Powerball didn’t see anything as wild as an Australia Play, but a playback was in grabbing distance. The {2-2-1-1} Pattern made its 217th appearance with 9, 10, 37, 59, 62 and PB 26.

The [2-1-2-1] General Order, now with 74 appearances, has played in 34.1% of the 217 drawings where {2-2-1-1} was the winning Pattern. Once all 9.88% drawings have been taken into consideration, this General Order has played 9.88% of the time.

Both the {2-2-1-1} Pattern and the [2-1-2-1] General Order played June 27, 2022.

Now with three appearances, the 2 0 1 0 2 1 Specific Order has played in 4.05% of the 74 drawings where the General Order was [2-1-2-1].

Three-Number Combinations

Powerball more than made up for a lack of playback with four repeating Three-Number Combinations:
