The Circle of Rising Jackpots

Lottery jackpots have their own cycle. They rise, get claimed, then reset, and the cycle repeats ad infinitum. This summer has seen one lottery’s jackpot get claimed twice and another that has kept rising full steam ahead. Surprisingly, it has been Powerball with the claimed prizes, and Lotto Texas flirting with unleashing a beast!

That trend continued August 24, 2019. Now, $18 million doesn’t seem that much compared to either Mega Millions or Powerball (both reset at $40 million) but (a) this is the largest that Lotto Texas has been in a while and (b) you wouldn’t really turn down that money if you won it (be honest!). Powerball’s jackpot rose graciously to $60 million.

August is winding down. That means full-on school mode and hopefully cooler temperatures on the horizon. Will Lotto Texas and Powerball follow suit with a cool down, or will the jackpot rise continue?

August Sweeps

August isn’t so boring after all. For Lotto Texas especially, it’s been one hell of a ride! Nothing could bring it down and the aftermath was a jackpot that leapt upwards to $17.25 million.

Now, Lotto Texas wasn’t the only one wild and out August 21, 2019. Powerball gained the courage to do something quite daring. This risk paid off for it, as players failed to pick all six winning numbers. The prize climbed to $50 million as a result.

Similar Spread(s)

The first spread happened November 26, 2014. The winning numbers were 14, 21, 31, 35, 36, and 48 and the spread was 07:10:04:01:12.

Looks like neither Lotto Texas nor Powerball could wait until the weekend to unleash the fireworks! Speaking of, will this level of madness show up again Saturday night, or will they take a breather?

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.

Números Calientes (Hot Numbers)

If August 14, 2019 was anything to go by, it may be a while yet before either Lotto Texas or Powerball cool down! Wednesday night saw them join forces and keep their respective prizes away from all who sought them. Lotto Texas continued its adventure in madness as the prize rose to $16 million. Powerball kept it classy (for now) as its prize rose to $149 million.

The Playback Blowtorch

It was a scorcher Wednesday night, and we don’t just mean a heat wave! August 7, 2019 was the night both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw a playback. Additionally, one of these lotteries was also neck-deep in encores. The intensity of this blowtorch kept players away from the grand prizes. These rose to $15.25 million for Lotto Texas and $128 million for Powerball.

Lotto Texas, normally the “quiet one”, has had an interesting summer. Just one week ago, we saw a similar spread. Wednesday night gave us another one; the spread was 02:13:06:09:04. This time around, its spread was similar to the one seen November 19, 2016. The spread for that night was 04:02:13:06:09 and the winning numbers were 15, 19, 21, 34, 40, and 49.

Lotto Texas, meanwhile, has been following in Powerball’s footsteps. Although nowhere near the madness its buddy has participated in, a showing form an uncommon Pattern forced the jackpot to rise to $15 million. That’s still a good amount of prize money.

Sticking with this Pattern for the sixth time in a row led to the prize rising to $12.25 million.

A Pattern love affair wasn’t all that happened July 17^th. Powerball’s jackpot quietly climbed to $53 million.

The Encore Zone

The past, good or bad, isn’t forgotten that easily. If it were, then we wouldn’t hold grudges and reboots, love ‘em or hate ‘em, wouldn’t be around every corner! But, what about something more recent? It’s too early to be reminiscent of what happened over the weekend, but it looks like both Lotto Texas and Powerball caught a case of nostalgia!

July 10^th was generous to Pattern streak and encore lovers. Another carryover was a lack of grand prize winners. Lotto Texas rose to a respectable $11 million while Powerball climbed to $194 million.

This Combination made its debut May 22^nd, 2019.

Looks like Streak Fever may be in the air. Both lotteries played their most common Patterns, and both are notorious for Pattern streaks! Powerball doesn’t have one yet, so we’ll need to see if a Pattern three-peat happens Saturday night. As for Lotto Texas, will its Pattern streak continue?

Four Score and an Encore

No rest for Lotto Texas and Powerball! Still pumped up from this past Saturday, these lotteries joined forces and made sure this July 3^rd was one to remember. As we’ll see shortly, momentum wasn’t the only thing that carried over. With no grand prize winners in either lottery, the jackpots rose to $9.75 million in Lotto Texas, and $165 million in Powerball.

The {3-2-1} Pattern is fond of three-peats, so that’s something to keep an eye out for Saturday. As for Powerball, that jackpot is starting to knock on Crazy Large’s door. Will that prize continue to rise or will someone claim the prize?
