Two-Way Triple Combination Punch

Spring is in full swing and COVID-19 vaccinations are under way. As humans continued to embrace warmer weather and a slow return to “normalcy”, Lotto Texas and Powerball couldn’t be any happier themselves. In fact, both lotteries had the audacity to go crazy on repeating Four and Three-Number Combinations, respectively. The biggest takeaway of April 14, 2021 was the rising jackpots. Lotto Texas’s jackpot held strong with $10.5 million, and Powerball’s ascended to $79 million.

Are either the Lotto Texas Australia Play or Powerball’s {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern on tap to make an encore Saturday night?

Subverted Lottery Expectations

Given recent events in the lottery world, you’d think either Lotto Texas or Powerball (or both) would see yet another repeat appearance of their most common Pattern. After all, the {3-2-1} Pattern three-peat in Lotto Texas laid the groundwork for a Pattern streak. Alas, these lotteries had other plans April 10, 2021. Lotto Texas broke up with the {3-2-1} Pattern and Powerball called it quits with the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. Repeating Four and Three-Number Combinations, and rising jackpots, were what remained of these tumultuous splits. Lotto Texas hit $10 million, and Powerball pushed onward to $67 million.

Will Lotto Texas and Powerball stick with these Patterns going into next week, or will they return to the {3-2-1} Pattern and {2-1-1-1-1} patterns, respectively?

A Showering of Pattern Encores

Who knew lotteries shared a subconscious link with one another? Okay, maybe not, but after what happened April 7, 2021, it would seem that way. Both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw Pattern encores and rising jackpots. Lotto Texas saw a bump to $9.25 million and Powerball glided into $55 million.

Lotto Texas and Powerball Don’t Fool Around

Spring is considered a time of hope and new beginnings. For lottery players, the beginning of a new month is another chance to win the big bucks, and hopefully retire early. Of course, winning the prize won’t be easy.

On April 3, 2021, Lotto Texas and Powerball made sure their prizes went unclaimed. Lotto Texas saw the return of the {3-2-1} Pattern and a jackpot that rose to $8.75 million. Powerball came close to a playback but more importantly, its jackpot rose to $43 million.

Lamb? What Lamb?

March was, without a doubt, a busy month for Lotto Texas and Powerball. Although the events of March 31, 2021 weren’t as wild as what took place this past Saturday, the night was far from calm. Both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw their respective jackpots increase to $8.5 million and $32 million. What’s more is that Powerball saw a double three-peat, and then some!

27 Days Later

This post could have been called “The Ides of March”, except March 15th was two weeks ago. Instead, we paid homage to a horror film series. Sort of.

Thankfully, there were no zombie hordes running around and society didn’t collapse, though the aftermath of March 27, 2021 was nothing short of awesome. This awesome, of course, was more along the lines of inspiring admiration or fear (the original definition, in fact).

What triggered such an emotion, you ask? For starters, Lotto Texas saw a playback, and a jackpot that rose to $8.25 million. Powerball nearly saw a playback, but something else, something of greater magnitude, occurred. Two somethings. The first something was the $238 million Powerball jackpot being won by a sole player from Florida. Naturally, the jackpot reset itself to $20 million. The other something was a repeat Four-Number Combination!

Will March end on a note like this, or will a quieter night await us on Wednesday?

A Spring in Their Step

This past Saturday, Lotto Texas and Powerball had the honor of welcoming spring. With a playback in Lotto Texas and a repeating Three-Number Combination in Powerball, they were more than ready to jump into the next season!

Yet, that was a quiet night compared to what happened March 24, 2021. The {3-2-1} Pattern returned in Lotto Texas and there was a parade of repeating Three and Four-Number Combinations! This madness propelled the Lotto Texas jackpot to $8 million, and Powerball jumped to $238 million.

Green is a color packed with a variety of meanings. One can be green with envy, or “go green” to help protect the environment. Green is also associated with luck, money, and St. Patrick’s Day.

For March 17, 2021, Lotto Texas and Powerball turned many faces green. One would be sickened if they missed out on winning millions of dollars! Yet, each lottery’s pot got much greener. Lotto Texas rose to $7.5 million, and Powerball hit the $200 million mark.

Will Saturday night mean Pattern encores and Specific Order debuts?

The Saturday Night Double Encore Madness

To everyone reading from the U.S. or Canada: Did you remember to spring forward?

(not applicable in Hawaii or Arizona)

Spring is on the horizon! The days are getting longer, Spring Break is here, and the wind is starting to pick up (perfect kite-flying weather!). With the transitioning of seasons, that means storms are brewing. And it just so happens that lotteries have their own storms. Rather than being the victims of such, they generate them.

Lotto Texas and Powerball got caught up in a whirlwind of their own making. March 13, 2021 was a night of not one, but two Pattern encores! Those encores granted a boost to their jackpots in the week ahead. Lotto Texas rose to $7.25 million, and Powerball climbed to $184 million.
