Two Rounds of 3-2-1

Although we saw no repeating Four-Number (Lotto Texas) or Three-Number Combinations (Powerball) on February 18th, the pre-Mardi Gras momentum kept going. Powerball saw a General Order that hadn’t played in almost a year and a new Specific Order. Although Powerball had most of the momentum, there was one moment it got to share with Lotto Texas. That moment was the Pattern.

Lotto Texas

For the 739th time, the {3-2-1} Pattern played with winning numbers 5, 11, 14, 21, 38, and 44.

This Pattern has now played in 52% of the 1422 Lotto Texas drawings. Additionally, the {3-2-1} Pattern remains the most commonly seen Pattern by a wide margin. We last saw this Pattern earlier this month in the February 1, 2017 drawing.

The Specific Order of the evening was 3 1 2, making its 134th appearance. This Specific Order has played in 18.1% of the 739 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 9.42% of all drawings. Prior to Saturday, we last saw the 3 1 2 Specific Order play in the January 11, 2017 drawing.

Powerball

 Just as in Lotto Texas, the {3-2-1} Pattern played. The winning numbers were 3, 7, 9, 31, 33, and PB 20.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

Unlike the {3-2-1} Pattern in Lotto Texas, this is one of the least commonly seen Patterns in Powerball. Now with six appearances, Powerball’s {3-2-1} Pattern has played in approximately 4.17% of the 144 drawings. This Pattern was last seen in the January 25, 2017 drawing.

The [3-2-1] General Order made its second appearance, its first since the March 16, 2016 drawing. As of Saturday, this General Order has played in 33.3% of the six drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 1.39% of all drawings.

The biggest development of the evening was the debut of the 3 0 2 0 0 1 Specific Order. This Specific Order has now played in half of the two drawings where the [3-2-1] General Order has appeared, approximately 16.7% of the six drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 0.69% of all drawings.

Will other rarely-seen Patterns appear in the week ahead? Will other Specific Orders make their debut?

Coupling Up After Valentine’s Day

Roses are red

No need to feel sour

Two lotteries in one night

Numbers wield great power

And lots of it. This February 15, 2017 was more than just the day after Valentine’s Day. Lotto Texas and Powerball had their drawings, and there was coupling up in both. By “coupling up”, we mean there was a Pattern and an Order that shared a “previously played” date. The dates, of course, varied.

Lotto Texas

For the 122nd time, the {3-3} Pattern came out to play. The winning numbers were 1, 4, 5, 43, 53, and 54.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.

This Pattern has now appeared in 8.59% of the 1421 Lotto Texas drawings to date, and was last seen in the January 21, 2017 drawing.

The 3 0 3 Specific Order made its 44th appearance, and has now played in 36.1% of the 122 drawings where the {3-3} Pattern has appeared, and in 3.1% of all drawings. Like the {3-3} Pattern, this Specific Order was last seen a few weeks ago in the January 21st drawing.

There were no repeating Four-Number Combinations, sorry to say

Those will have to wait for another day.

Powerball

The Powerball Pattern of the evening was {3-1-1-1}, with winning numbers 5, 28, 33, 38, 42, and PB 19.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

Now with 27 appearances, this Pattern has now played in 18.9% of the 143 Powerball drawings. We last saw this Pattern exactly two weeks prior in the February 1, 2017 drawing.

Next, the [1-1-3-1] General Order made its 11th appearance, and it was also last seen on February 1st. With that said, this General Order has now played in 40.7% of the 27 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 7.69% of all drawings.

The 1 1 3 0 0 1 Specific Order made its world debut, meaning that it has now played in 9.09% of the eleven drawings where the [1-1-3-1-] General Order has appeared. This Specific Order has also played in 3.70% of the 27 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 0.7% of all drawings.

Talk of a repeating Three-Number Combination, that we can do

It came in the form of 28, 38, and 42

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

This past Christmas Eve was when it made its debut.

It definitely can be said

That momentum for Lotto Texas and Powerball is far from dead!

What will the weekend have in store?

Will there be a lull or a mighty uproar?

That Plucky {4-2} Pattern

The lottery momentum continued the night of February 11th. For as long as Lottery Binge has been online, this is the second time we’ve seen the {4-2} Pattern appear not once, not twice, but three times in a row. Powerball on the other hand simmered down a bit.

Lotto Texas

The {4-2} Pattern three-peat on Saturday night was thanks to winning numbers 24, 25, 26, 29, 41, and 53.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.
Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.

This Pattern has now appeared 160 times, and has played in 11.3% of the 1420 Lotto Texas drawings. Recall that the {4-2} Pattern was last seen in Wednesday’s drawing.

The 0 4 2 Specific Order made its 31st appearance, the first since the September 17th, 2016 drawing. As of Saturday’s drawing, this Specific Order has now played in 19.375% of the 160 drawings where the {4-2} Pattern has appeared, and 2.18% of all drawings.

One observation we’ve made is that with the past two consecutive appearances of the {4-2} Pattern, there’ve been at least one repeating Four-Number Combination. Saturday night was no exception. The Four-Number Combination 24, 25, 29, and 41 made its second appearance, after having debuted in the November 19, 2014 drawing.

It’s not often that we see the {4-2} Pattern make a three-peat appearance.

Powerball

Powerball’s {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern retained its lead as the most commonly seen Pattern. The 48th appearance was represented by winning numbers 5, 9, 17, 37, 64, and PB 2.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.
Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

This Pattern has now played in 33.8% of the 142 drawings to date, and previously played in the January 18, 2017 drawing.

Next, the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order made its 10th appearance, its first since the January 7, 2017 drawing. This General Order has now played in 20.8% of the 48 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 7.04% of all drawings.

Our Powerball coverage concludes with the 2 1 1 0 1 1 Specific Order, making its third appearance. As of Saturday, this Specific Order has played in 30% of the 10 drawings where the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order has appeared, 6.25% of the 48 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} drawing has appeared, and in 2.11% of all drawings. Like the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order, the 2 1 1 0 1 1 Specific Order was last seen in the January 7th drawing.

As we look to the week ahead, will we see an unprecedented four-peat of the {4-2} Pattern in Lotto Texas? Will the {2-1-1-1-1} in Powerball hold on to its lead?

No Hump Here

Ah, Wednesday, that one day where everyone thinks, “If I can get over the hump, the rest of the week’ll be easy.” Yes, happy hours are the standard way of celebrating that mid-week milestone. Another way to celebrate, of course, is to play the lottery. Lotto Texas and Powerball didn’t lose any momentum after the Super Bowl. If the Patterns that played on February 8, 2017 were anything to go by, they gained momentum!

Lotto Texas

The {4-2} Pattern made an encore. Wednesday’s winning numbers were 10, 15, 47, 49, 51 and 52, marking the 159th appearance of the {4-2} Pattern.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.
Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.

This Pattern has now appeared in 11.2% of the 1419 drawings to date and previously played in the February 4, 2017 drawing.

The Specific Order of the evening was 2 0 4, which was last seen in the October 8, 2016 drawing. As of Wednesday, this Specific Order has played 20 times, meaning it has played in 12.6% of the 159 drawings where the {4-2} Pattern has appeared, and in 1.41% of all drawings.

Lotto Texas also gifted us with a repeat appearance of two Four-Number Combinations:

  • 10, 47, 49, and 52, which debuted September 1, 2007 and
  • 15, 47, 51, and 52, which debuted December 3, 2016.

It’s not often that we see a Four-Number Combination repeat a short while after its debut.

Powerball

Powerball saw the 15th appearance of the Australia Play.  The winning numbers 14, 20, 42, 49, 66, and PB 5 followed the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern.

Of course, when the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern appears, the [1-1-1-1-1-1] General Order and the 1 1 1 1 1 1 Specific Order make their appearance too. All three have played in 10.6% of the 141 Powerball drawings to date, and were last seen a few weeks ago in the January 28, 2017 drawing.

This Australia Play also spawned a repeat of the Three-Number Combination 14, 66, and PB 5, which debuted on November 14, 2015.

Will Lotto Texas and Powerball keep up the momentum, or will they simmer down on Saturday night?

Pre-Game Numbers Extravaganza

Saturday night, oh what a night! People partied hard and started prepping for the even larger party taking place the next day. On the lottery side of things, Lotto Texas and Powerball had a blowout Super Bowl party of their own. Lotto Texas saw a not-often-seen Pattern that produced not only two repeating Four-Number Combinations, but one Combination that has now played three times. Powerball, on the other hand, saw a Pattern creep its way back up, and possibly give the current champion a run for its money in the Most Commonly Seen department.

Lotto Texas

The February 4th Lotto Texas drawing produced the 158th occurrence of the {4-2} Pattern. The winning numbers were 8, 13, 19, 25, 26, and 29.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.
Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.

This Pattern has now played in 11.1% of the 1418 drawings to date, and was last seen in the January 14th, 2017 drawing.

The 2 4 0 Specific Order made its 27th appearance, its first since the September 10th, 2016 drawing. This Specific Order has played in 17.1% of the 158 drawings where the {4-2} Pattern has appeared, and in 1.9% of all Lotto Texas drawings.

Lotto Texas’s biggest play of the evening was the repeat appearance of two Four-Number Combinations. These Combinations were:

While we didn’t see anything that hadn’t played since the Napster days, seeing a Four-Number Combination play three times is impressive!

Powerball

Powerball didn’t have any repeating Three-Number Combinations, and it looks like the {2-2-1-1} Pattern is slowly catching up to the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern in the number of appearances. Saturday’s drawing was the 46th appearance of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, with winning numbers 6, 13, 16, 17, 52, and PB 25.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.
Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

This Pattern has now played in 32.9% of the 140 Powerball drawings to date. We last saw this Pattern in the January 21st, 2017 drawing. We’ll need to keep an eye on {2-2-1-1}; if this Pattern makes an encore in Wednesday’s drawing, it won’t be the first time it has tied with {2-1-1-1-1} for most plays!

Moving on, the [2-2-1-1] General Order made its eighteenth appearance. Like the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, the [2-2-1-1] General Order was also last seen in the January 21st drawing. This General Order has played in 39.1% of the 46 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 12.9% of all drawings.

Our Powerball coverage concludes with the 2 2 0 1 0 1 Specific Order making its fifth appearance. This Specific Order has now played in 27.8% of the 18 drawings where the [2-2-1-1] General Order has appeared, 10.9% of the 46 drawings where the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 3.57% of all drawings. Prior to Saturday, the 2 2 0 1 0 1 Specific Order was last seen in the November 30th, 2016 drawing.

As we look ahead to next week, will the {2-2-1-1} Pattern make an encore in Powerball? Will Lotto Texas see another Four-Number Combination make its third-ever appearance?

 

Greet the New Month with Style

February may be the shortest month but it packs a punch. The Super Bowl is just a few days away, and Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. This year, February started on a Wednesday, which of course means Lotto Texas and Powerball had their drawings! Speaking of Lotto Texas, what better way to start the month than for it to see a Four-Number Combination that debuted almost fifteen years ago?

Lotto Texas

The February 1st drawing gave us an encore appearance of the {3-2-1} Pattern with winning numbers 12, 19, 26, 29, 37, and 54.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers.
Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com

This reigning champion of Patterns has now appeared 738 times and has played in 52.1% of the 1417 Lotto Texas drawings to date. The {3-2-1} Pattern, as you recall, made its appearance in this past Saturday’s drawing.

The 1 3 2 Specific Order, on the other hand, made its prior appearance in the November 19th, 2016 drawing. This Specific Order has now appeared 108 times, and has played in 14.6% of the 738 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared. The 1 3 2 Specific Order has also played in 7.62% of all drawings.

February 1st also marked the repeat appearance of Four-Number Combination 12, 29, 37, and 54.

This Combination made its debut on April 10th, 2002. To put things in perspective, this was just a few months before the music sharing service Napster shut down.

Powerball

Meanwhile, Powerball saw the {3-1-1-1} Pattern. The winning numbers were 9, 43, 57, 60, 64, and PB 10.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

Now with 26 appearances, this Pattern has played in 18.7% of the 139 drawings. This Pattern previously played a few weeks back in the January 17th drawing.

Like the {3-1-1-1} Pattern, the [1-1-3-1] General Order was last seen on January 17th. This General Order has played in 38.5% of the 26 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 7.19% of all drawings.

Our lottery coverage of the evening concludes with the 1 0 0 1 3 1 Specific Order, playing for the second time. This Specific Order has now played in 20% of the 10 drawings where the [1-1-3-1] General Order has appeared, 7.69% of the 26 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 1.44% of all drawings. The 1 0 0 1 3 1 Specific Order made its debut in the October 8th, 2016 drawing.

Super Bowl weekend is upon us. Will Lotto Texas and/or Powerball make a big play, or will they cede the excitement to the gridiron?

Wednesday Goes Boom

Talk about explosive! January 25, 2017 gifted us with not-commonly-seen Patterns in both Lotto Texas and Powerball. The lottery world was also graced with the debut of a new Specific Order.

Lotto Texas

The Pattern of the evening was {2-2-2}, gifted to us by winning numbers 1, 14, 19, 32, 37, and 46.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com
Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com

Not only did we see the 192nd appearance of the {2-2-2} Pattern, we saw the 192nd appearance of the [2-2-2] General Order and the 2 2 2 Specific Order. All three have now appeared in 13.6% of the 1415 drawings to date.  For any new readers out there, we here at Lottery Binge like to call this setup an Australia Play. We last saw an Australia Play in the December 7, 2016 drawing.

This Australia Play brought us not one, but two repeating Four-Number Combinations.

Repeating Four-Number Combinations are in the red boxes.

Powerball

Powerball may not have had an Australia Play, but it did have something rarer. The rarely-seen {3-2-1} Pattern made its fifth appearance. Yes, fifth! The winning numbers were 18, 28, 62, 66, 68, and PB 22.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.
Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

This Pattern has played in 3.65% of the 137 Powerball drawings, and believe it or not, this was the Pattern to ring in the new year on January 4, 2017.

The [2-3-1] General Order was also last seen in the January 4th drawing. Now with four appearances, this General Order has played in 80% of the five drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 2.92% of all drawings.

By process of elimination, Powerball is the one with a new Specific Order. The 0 2 0 0 3 1 Specific Order, to be precise. This Specific Order has now played in 25% of the four drawings where the [2-3-1] General Order has appeared, 20% of the five drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 0.73% of all Powerball drawings.

As we march on to the last weekend before the Super Bowl, will Lotto Texas and Powerball continue to surprise us with rarely-seen Patterns?

A (Mostly) November-December Dance

Wednesday means Hump Day, and what better way to get over the hump than to see a not-so-common Pattern get a play? The January 18,2017 drawing for Lotto Texas not only saw an uncommon Pattern, but a repeating Four-Number Combination that debuted nearly ten years ago! We also noticed that many of the “Previously played” dates for both Lotto Texas and Powerball happened to be from this past November and December.

Lotto Texas

The not-oft seen {3-3} Pattern made its 120th appearance, thanks to winning numbers 6, 11, 17, 37, 40, and 49.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers from lotterytrend-powerball.com.
Winning Texas Lottery numbers from lotterytrend-powerball.com.

This Pattern has now played in 8.49% of the 1413 drawings, and was last seen in the November 30, 2016 drawing.

The Specific Order of the evening was 3 0 3. Now with 42 appearances, this Specific Order has played in 35% of the 120 drawings where the {3-3} Pattern appeared, and in 2.97% of all drawings. Prior to Wednesday, the 3 0 3 Specific Order previously played in the November 16, 2016 drawing.

The repeating Four-Number Combination this time around was 6, 11, 17, and 40, and it made its debut in the May 16, 2007 drawing.

Powerball

Unlike Lotto Texas, Powerball did not see a rarely-played Pattern or repeating Combinations. Instead, we were treated to the 47th appearance of the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, ensuring its dominance. The winning numbers were 9, 40, 41, 53, 58, and PB 12.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.
Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

Having now made 47 appearances, the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played in 34.8% of 135 Powerball drawings. We last saw this Pattern in the January 7, 2017 drawing.

The [1-2-1-1-1] General Order made its 12th appearance, its first since the December 21, 2016 drawing. This General Order has played in 25.5% of the 47 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 8.89% of all Powerball drawings.

Finally, we come to the 1 0 2 1 1 1 Specific Order, making its third appearance. This Specific Order has played in 25% of the 12 drawings where the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order has appeared, 6.38% of the 47 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 2.22% of all drawings. The 1 0 2 1 1 1 Specific Order previously played in the November 23, 2016 drawing.

Will the rarely-seen {3-3} Pattern go for an encore in Lotto Texas? Will Powerball take a dip in the “not-often-seen Pattern” pool?

Low-Key Weekend

Saturday nights tend to be an explosive time for both Lotto Texas and Powerball. It seems that with the holiday season over and with (US) football play-offs under way, a break was in order January 14th.

Lotto Texas

The {4-2} Pattern made its 157th appearance, with winning numbers 7, 8, 10, 18, 47, and 48.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.
Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.

As of Saturday, this Pattern has played in 11.1% of the 1412 Lotto Texas drawings. We previously saw this Pattern last weekend in the January 7th drawing.

The 4 0 2 Specific Order made its 23rd appearance and has now played in 14.6% of the 157 drawings where the {4-2} Pattern has played. This Specific Order has also played in 1.63% of all drawings. Prior to Saturday, the 4 0 2 Specific Order previously played in the Christmas Eve drawing.

Powerball

Powerball’s biggest spark was the encore appearance of the {3-1-1-1} Pattern. The winning numbers this time around were 23, 55, 59, 64, 69, and PB 13.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

Now with 25 appearances, this Pattern has played in approximately 18.66% of the 134 Powerball drawings. Recall that the {3-1-1-1} Pattern recently played in this past Wednesday’s Powerball drawing.

Next, the [1-1-3-1] General Order made its ninth appearance, its first since the November 16, 2016 drawing. This General Order has now played in 36% of the 25 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 6.72% of all drawings.

The 0 1 0 1 3 1 Specific Order made its third appearance Saturday. This Specific Order has now played in 33.3% of the nine drawings where the [1-1-3-1] General Order has appeared, 12% of the 25 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 2.24% of all drawings. Prior to Saturday’s drawing, the 0 1 0 1 3 1 Specific Order was last seen in the October 15, 2016 drawing.

With January halfway over and with the Super Bowl coming up in Lottery Trend country, was Saturday night a lull before the coming storm?

Wednesday Night Bonanza

Lottery Trend country is in the middle of a January thaw. As those up north rejoice in putting away their snow shovels, and those down south have mixed feelings about wearing flip-flops and shorts, Lotto Texas and Powerball turned up the heat.  January 11th, 2017 made things quite toasty indeed.

Lotto Texas

The {3-2-1} Pattern has now appeared in 736 drawings, with winning numbers 4, 13, 16, 19, 43, and 51.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers from lotterytrend.com.
Winning Texas Lottery numbers from lotterytrend.com.

This Pattern has now appeared in 52.2% of the 1411 Lotto Texas drawings, and was last seen in the January 4th, 2017 drawing just a week prior.

Now with 133 appearances, the 3 1 2 Specific Order has played in 18.1% of the 736 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 9.43% of all drawings. We last saw this Specific Order in the New Year’s Eve drawing.

Wednesday night gave us two repeating Four-Number Combinations:

  • 4, 13, 43, and 51 (debuted Valentine’s Day 2007) and
  • 4, 13, 16, and 19 (debuted March 29th, 2014)

The repeating Four-Number Combination debut dates are spread out this time around. We went from a period just a few months before the iPhone debuted to a period where people camped out for them.

Powerball

Thanks to winning numbers 1, 3, 13, 16, 43, and PB 24, the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has now appeared a respectable 24 times.

Winning Powerball numbers. From lotterytrend-powerball.com.

This Pattern has played in 18% of the 133 Powerball drawings, and previously played December 7th, 2016.

The [3-1-1-1] General Order made its seventh appearance, its first since the November 26th, 2016 drawing. This General Order has now played in 29.2% of the 24 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 5.26% of all drawings.

Wednesday’s drawing gave us a new Specific Order! This gem was 3 1 0 1 0 1 and has now appeared in approximately 14.3% of the seven drawings where the [3-1-1-1] General Order has appeared. The 3 1 0 1 0 1 Specific Order has also played in 4.17% of the 24 drawings where the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 0.75% of all drawings.

Another gem was the repeating Three-Number Combination 3, 16, and PB 24, which made its debut not too long ago in the October 26th 2016 drawing.

As we head into a holiday weekend, and the January thaw goes full speed ahead, will Lotto Texas and Powerball continue to crank up the heat?
