Of Three-peats and “Three-Timing” Combinations

In addition to the whole “Gotta raise the jackpot” mindset, there was one other thing that came to mind for Lotto Texas and Powerball Saturday night: “thirds”. Yes, thirds. One Pattern ruled the week in its respective lottery while the other saw a repeating Combination that played for the third time! Once the dust settled, the Lotto Texas and Powerball jackpots rose to $16.5 million and $215 million, respectively.

Will the {3-2-1} Pattern streak be solidified in Lotto Texas Monday night, and could Powerball see a playback?

The Art of Multi-Dipping

What is multi-dipping? Double-dipping and multitasking, sure, but multi-dipping? In this case, multi-dipping involves the presence of a Pattern that has played at least two times in a row and had a repeating Combination that has played at least three times. Multi-dipping can either boost a jackpot or bring someone great fortune. Often, as we saw August 9, 2023, it’s the former.

Of Lotto Texas and Powerball, at least one of those lotteries practiced the art of multi-dipping. However, both lotteries saw a boost in their jackpots. Lotto Texas grew to $15.75 million, and Powerball grew to $194 million.
