The One-Two Encore Slam

History may not repeat itself, but it sure does rhyme! When it came to Patterns, Saturday night looked similar to what we saw this past Wednesday. April 17, 2021 featured encores for both Lotto Texas and Powerball. Additionally, their jackpots rose to $11 million and $90 million, respectively.

There have now been 1856 Lotto Texas drawings, and an Australia Play has been featured 13.7% of the time. Recall that April 14, 2021 was the last time we saw the {2-2-2} Pattern and the 2 2 2 Specific Order.

The [1-2-1-1-1] General Order, now with 58 appearances, has played in 26.2% of the 221 drawings where {2-1-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern. Once all 578 drawings have been taken into consideration, this General Order has played 10.0% of the time.

Powerball, in fact, saw a double encore. Both the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern and the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order played April 14, 2021.

Now with 10 appearances, the 1 2 1 1 0 1 Specific Order has played in 17.2% of the 58 drawings where the General Order was [1-2-1-1-1]. This Specific Order has also played in 4.52% of the 221 drawings where {2-1-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern and in 1.73% of all 578 drawings. The  1 2 1 1 0 1 Specific Order was last seen in the February 17, 2021 drawing.

Three-Number Combinations

The Lottery Flip-Flop

We have a sleeper on our hands.

Lotto Texas, the “classiest” of the lotteries covered on Lottery Binge, has tended to its jackpot and watched it grow! After handing the players yet another thrashing, the prize climbed to $16.5 million. This has been a thing for Lotto Texas since before the summer season started. Slow and steady, indeed!

There was another side to the tale of August 17, 2019. Powerball, certainly no stranger to crazy-large jackpots, appears to have put them to the side. Now, they’ve been growing to healthy size, but they’ve been claimed before reaching the $200 million mark.  Long Island produced the sole winner of the $149 million up for grabs. Naturally, the prize reset itself to $40 million.

Four-Number Combination(s)

What’s an Australia Play without a repeating Four-Number Combination, right? Lone repeater 18, 23, 40, and 44, made its debut in the April 3, 2013 drawing.

With winning numbers 18, 21, 24, 30, 60, and PB 20, the {3-1-1-1} Pattern made its 82nd appearance.

This Pattern has played in 20.3% of the 404 Powerball drawings and was last seen July 3, 2019.

The [3-1-1-1] General Order, now with 25 appearances, has played in 30.5% of the 82 drawings where {3-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern. Once all 404 drawings have been taken into consideration, this General Order has played 6.19% of the time. Prior to Saturday night, the [3-1-1-1] General Order played June 15, 2019.

This Specific Order has also played in 2.44% of the 82 drawings where {3-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern and in roughly 0.5% of all 404 drawings. The 0 3 1 0 1 1 Specific Order was first seen in the November 3, 2018 drawing.

Three-Number Combination(s)

There were no repeating Three-Number Combinations Saturday night.

Powerball will continue its break from crazy-large jackpots, so any shenanigans there are out of the question. But we still have Lotto Texas to contend with. How high will its jackpot get? Will it climb once again come Wednesday or will it be claimed?

That Hidden Pattern Bond

If there’s one sage piece of our childhoods we should remember, it’s “Never judge a book by its cover.” Lotto Texas and Powerball are as opposite as you can get with lotteries. One is more inclined to have monster jackpots while the other takes a more “respectable” approach to the madness. Lotto Texas leapt upwards to $15 million and Powerball climbed to $84 million.

Our analysis showed that April 6th was a night that the lotteries had something else in common.

Both lotteries appear to be bounding along to large jackpots. Going into Wednesday’s drawing, we’ll need to keep an eye out for a {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern encore or at least one of those prizes growing once again. Could the Pattern playdates be joined at the hip once more?

A Little Bit Warmer Now

If this past Saturday was warm, then January 24th was hot! Wednesday night was a big night for those who love seeing repeating Four-Number and Three-Number Combinations. Powerball had the lion’s share of the action.

Adieu, 2017

First, a Happy New Year to all our readers! After another year of Pattern streaks, similar spreads, and Australia Plays, the year 2017 officially ended on December 30th. In Lottery World, anyway.

Pre-Christmas Thaw

It’s winter in Lottery Trend Country, although it doesn’t really feel like it in our neck of the woods. To think that it snowed two weeks ago! Thus the fickle nature of Houston weather. On the lottery side of things, December 20, 2017 saw a “thaw”. Lotto Texas had a Pattern encore, and then some. Powerball stayed mellow through-and-through.

Repeating Combination Bundle

The snowstorm has passed, leaving broken records, social media blow-ups, and power outages. Neither Lotto Texas nor Powerball broke any records December 9th. But, there were a few rumblings in the repeating Combinations department. We’ll get to those in a moment. First things first though: the analyses!

Lotto Texas

General Lottery Analysis

One way to obtain “Most commonly played Pattern” status is to appear in streaks. That is, appearing in at least three consecutive drawings. Saturday’s drawing saw the {3-2-1} Pattern play for the third time in a row. This time, the winning numbers were 4, 5, 10, 21, 34, and 40, bringing the number of appearances up to 783.

Now with five appearances, the 0 1 2 1 1 1 Specific Order has played in 22.7% of the 22 drawings where the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order has appeared. This Specific Order has also played in 6.10% of the 82 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 2.19% of all 228 drawings.

A Playback and a Spread

Lotto Texas

With winning numbers 12, 15, 17, 31, 38, and 47, the {3-2-1} Pattern made its 781st appearance.

This Pattern has played in 51.9% of the 1504 Lotto Texas drawings, and was last seen November 25, 2017.

Now with 145 appearances, the 3 1 2 Specific Order has played in 18.6% of the 781 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared. This Specific Order has now played in 9.64% of all 1504 drawings. And, it was seen alongside the {3-2-1} Pattern in the November 25th drawing.

Because the {3-2-1} Pattern and the 3 1 2 Specific Order were seen together in a previous drawing, we here at Lottery Binge call this a playback.

Four-Number Combination(s)

Lotto Texas thought the playback was enough. There were no repeating Four-Number Combinations.

Powerball

Given that there have been 226 Powerball drawings so far, this Pattern has played about 19% of the time. It was last seen in the November 15, 2017 drawing.

The [1-3-1-1] General Order has now played 14 times, and has thus appeared in 32.6% of the 43 drawings where {3-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern. This General Order has played 6.19% of the time when looking at all 226 drawings. Prior to Saturday, this General Order played in the September 23, 2017 drawing.

Now with four appearances, the 0 1 3 0 1 1 Specific Order has played in 28.6% of the 14 drawings where the [1-3-1-1] General Order appeared.

Finally, when looking at all 226 Powerball drawings, the 0 1 3 0 1 1 Specific Order has played 1.77% of the time. We last saw this Specific Order in the May 24, 2017 drawing.

Similar Spread

It just so happens that Powerball also saw a similar spread. The spread was shared with the numbers in the February 18, 2017 drawing. That night, the winning numbers were 3, 7, 9, 31, 33, and PB 20. The spread was 04:02:22:02. The spread for Saturday’s numbers was 02:02:04:22. Remember that with similar spreads, the numbers in the spreads are the same, but their orders are different.

Three-Number Combination(s)

There was also one lone repeating Three-Number Combination: 32, 36, and 58.

Pattern Fall-Back

Daylight Savings Time ended in the U.S. and Canada earlier this morning. Hope everyone set their clocks back one hour!

Lottery-wise, it appeared Lotto Texas stole the show Saturday night. Powerball may not have been “in-your-face” with action, but it didn’t let Lotto Texas have all the fun. In fact, Powerball was quite fond of repetition. Pattern-wise.

There were no repeating Three-Number Combinations this time.

Will either Pattern make an encore appearance in this Wednesday’s drawing?

The Pattern Bind

“The more things change, the more they stay the same,” as they say. What does this have to do with playing the lottery, you ask? The numbers that play in any given drawing will change, that’s a given. But, there are times where a few things, oh, say a Pattern, will remain the same. Make that two Patterns. On October 25th, both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw encores for their respective Patterns.

And how fitting that as the drawings happened, the Astros would go on to tie the World Series!
