The Jackpots Climb-eth

Lotto Texas, ever the poised one, grew to $14.25 million. Although far and away from $1 billion, this lottery was confident in the fact that few would turn their noses up at trying to win.

To Spread or Not to Spread

After a week of repeating Four-Number Combinations and similar spreads, Lotto Texas and Powerball scaled it back some Saturday night. However, there was one question these lotteries asked themselves: “Should I play another similar spread?” One lottery opted to go for it, while the other was content to play repeating Combinations.

Powerball had room for three more!

Did Lotto Texas and Powerball have their fill of repeating Four-Number Combinations for the week, or will more be on the way Saturday night?

The Mega Millions 900

To say that Tuesday night was a momentous night for mega Millions would be an understatement. It was on that night, July 25, 2023, that Mega Millions hosted its 900th drawing. The jackpot grew to $910 million, and we can assure you that this lottery did not go about this quietly!

Four-Number Combination

Three-Number Combinations

Naturally, a repeating Four-Number Combination would have four repeating Three-Number Combinations buried inside. The Combinations were:

  • 3, 5, 6
  • 3, 5, MB 25
  • 5, 6, MB 25
  • 3, 6, MB 25

All the above Combinations debuted in the earlier-mentioned May 24th drawing. Mega Millions, in fact, had room for two more:

As Queen once sang, “Another one gone, another one gone. Another one bites the dust!”

Powerball’s behemoth of a jackpot was sustained for several months with assists from a variety of plays, watered with the tears of frustration and anger from millions who sought to improve their financial situations.

Can’t Ignore This

Some things are too big to ignore. Try as we might, there are things that remind us, sometimes bitterly so, of how unbelievably short time away from work feels, or how the biosphere is seriously out of whack (people wouldn’t double down on denial otherwise). In a time when people are cash-strapped and looking to free themselves from wage slavery, it would serve them well to pay attention to the goings-on in the lottery world.

Going into the July 15, 2023 Powerball drawing, Powerball, along with Mega Millions, had a jackpot getting close to $1 billion. After the drawing, that still held true. The Powerball jackpot rose to a heart-pounding $900 million!

Lest we forget about Lotto Texas, this lottery quietly boosted its jackpot to $8 million.
