Simmerin’ Down with a Similar Spread

Wednesday’s drawing didn’t grant us repeating Four-Number Combinations in Lotto Texas or repeating Three-Number Combinations in Powerball. For those of you who had hoped for a Pattern encore or an Australia Play, we’re sorry to say that didn’t happen either. Now, what did happen on the night of March 8, 2017 was a visit from the rare specimen known as the similar spread.

Lotto Texas

Wednesday’s winning numbers were 15, 19, 24, 33, 34, and 47, marking the 156^th appearance of the {4-1-1} Pattern.

This Pattern has now played in 10.9% of the 1427 Lotto Texas drawings, and was last seen on October 15, 2016.

The 1 4 1 Specific Order made its 55^th appearance, and has now played in 35.3% of the 156 drawings where the {4-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 3.85% of all drawings. Prior to Wednesday, this Specific Order previously played on June 18, 2016.

And now, it has come time to discuss the similar spread. The spread for Wednesday’s drawing was 04:05:09:01:13. It was a little over one year ago, in the March 5, 2016 drawing, that there was a similar spread of 04:01:13:09:05. The winning numbers on that night were 5, 9, 10, 23, 32, and 37. As you can see, the differences between the numbers in these separate drawings were the same, but the order was different.

Powerball

Although Powerball didn’t have a similar spread, it was graced with the presence of the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. Its 52^nd appearance was marked by winning numbers 23, 33, 42, 46, 59, and PB 4.

This Pattern has appeared in 34.9% of the 149 Powerball drawings, and remained the most commonly seen Pattern. We last saw the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern at the beginning of the month.

Making its 13^th appearance, the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order has now played in 25% of the 52 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 8.72% of all Powerball drawings. Prior to Wednesday, this General Order was last seen in the January 18, 2017 drawing.

Our Powerball coverage concludes with the third appearance of the 0 1 2 1 1 1 Specific Order. This Specific Order has played in approximately 3.08% of the 13 drawings where the [1-2-1-1-1] General Order has appeared, as well as 5.77% of the 52 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 2.01% of all 149 drawings. The 0 1 2 1 1 1 Specific Order previously played on December 21, 2016.

Daylight Savings is coming for us here in Lottery Trend country. As we look to spring forward soon, will Lotto Texas and Powerball have Pattern encores? Will the ever-elusive exact spread make an appearance?

A Flicker of February

The March 4, 2017 drawing didn’t bring us a four-peat of Powerball’s {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, nor did we see three repeating Four-Number Combinations in Lotto Texas. Instead, both lotteries saw Patterns that were last seen in February. While appearing to be no big deal, there was much more bubbling underneath the surface. Two Four-Number Combinations repeated in Lotto Texas, and these Combinations made their debut almost fifteen years ago! Toss in the debut of a new Specific Order in Powerball and there was no end in sight to the March momentum.

Lotto Texas

Saturday night’s winning numbers were 2, 4, 5, 17, 48, and 50, marking the 161^st appearance of the {4-2} Pattern.

This Pattern has now played in approximately 11.3% of the 1426 Lotto Texas drawings to date, and was last seen in the February 11, 2017 drawing.

Now with 24 appearances, the 4 0 2 Specific Order has played in 14.9% of the 161 drawings where the {4-2} Pattern has appeared, and in 1.68% of all drawings. Prior to Saturday, this Specific Order played in the January 14, 2017 drawing.

The biggest draw in Lotto Texas was the repeat appearances of these Four-Number Combinations:

2, 14, 17, 50 (Debuted June 5, 2002)
4, 5, 17, 50 (Debuted April 5, 2002)

Repeating Four-Number Combinations are in red boxes.

Will another fifteen years pass before these Combinations make another repeat appearance?

Powerball

Instead of a {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern four-peat, we saw the {3-1-1-1} Pattern, with winning numbers 2, 18, 19, 22, 63, and PB 19.

With 28 appearances to date, the {3-1-1-1} Pattern has played in 18.9% of the 148 Powerball drawings. This Pattern previously played in the February 15, 2017 drawing.

With its 10^th appearance, the [1-3-1-1] General Order has now played in 35.7% of the 28 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 6.76% of all drawings. We last saw the [1-3-1-1] General Order in the December 7, 2016 drawing.

Our Powerball coverage concludes with the debut of the 1 3 0 0 1 1 Specific Order. As of Saturday’s drawing, this Specific Order has played in 10% of the drawings where the [1-3-1-1] General Order has appeared, 3.57% of the 28 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in approximately 0.68% of all drawings.

As we march into the second week of the month, will other Specific Orders make their debut? Will another Pattern streak try to form?

March Comes Roaring In

March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb, or so it’s said. The March 1^st drawings for Lotto Texas and Powerball lived up to that saying. They came roaring in with repeating Four-Number and Three-Number Combinations, respectively, and both lotteries saw their most commonly played Patterns. Powerball’s most commonly seen Pattern got an extra boost with a three-peat appearance.

Lotto Texas

Wednesday’s winning numbers were 3, 24, 33, 34, 45, and 51. With 740 appearances, the {3-2-1} Pattern remained second-to-none.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers. These followed the {3-2-1} Pattern.

Given that there have been 1425 Lotto Texas drawings to date, this Pattern has now played in approximately 51.9% of all drawings. Prior to Wednesday, we last saw the {3-2-1} Pattern in the February 18, 2017 drawing a few weeks back.

The 1 3 2 Specific Order made its 109^th appearance, and has now played in 14.7% of the 740 drawings where the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared. This Specific Order has also played in 7.65% of all drawings. Interestingly, the 1 3 2 Specific Order previously played exactly one month prior in the February 1, 2017 drawing.

Lotto Texas solidified its strong start to March with repeat appearances of the following Four-Number Combinations:

24, 34, 45, 51 (Debuted October 15, 2011)
33, 34, 45, 51 (Debuted April 10, 2013)
24, 33, 34, 51 (Debuted September 17, 2016)

Powerball

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern continues to reign supreme after its three-peat appearance. This time around, the winning numbers were 10, 16, 40, 52, 55, and PB 17.

Now with 51 appearances, this Pattern has played in 34.7% of the 147 Powerball drawings to date. Prior to Wednesday, we saw the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern in this past Saturday’s drawing, in addition to the February 22^nd drawing one week ago.

The [1-1-1-2-1] General Order made its 19^th appearance, and has now played in 37.3% of the 51 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 12.9% of all drawings. This General Order, like the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, was last seen in the February 25, 2017 drawing.

Making its second-ever appearance, the 1 1 1 2 0 1 Specific Order has now played in 10.5% of the 19 drawings where the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has appeared. This Specific Order has also played in 3.92% of the 51 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 1.36% of all drawings. The 1 1 1 2 0 1 Specific Order made its debut in the October 22, 2016 drawing.

The repeating Three-Number Combination of the evening was 40, 52, and PB 17.

The Combination 40-52-PB 17 is highlighted in the red box.

We first saw this Combination in the June 22, 2016 drawing.

Will Lotto Texas see three more Four-Number Combinations repeat on Saturday? Will Powerball’s {2-1-1-1-1} go in for a fourth consecutive appearance?

Served Up Rare

Unlike what we saw in our last Lotto Texas/Powerball post, the February 25^th drawing didn’t provide us with Australia Plays or repeating Four-Number (Lotto Texas) or Three-Number (Powerball) Combinations. However, Saturday night was far from “ordinary”. A rarely-seen Pattern made an appearance in Lotto Texas and the Specific Order in Powerball made its second-ever appearance. One noteworthy development was that the Patterns in both lotteries have now played the same number of times.

Lotto Texas

Saturday’s drawing marked the 50^th appearance of the {5-1} Pattern, with winning numbers 16, 37, 42, 46, 49, and 54.

While 50 seems like a high number of occurrences, keep in mind that there have now been 1424 drawings in Lotto Texas. Not only that, the {5-1} Pattern has now played in 3.51% of all drawings, and was last seen in the December 17, 2016 drawing.

Adding a bit more spice to the mix, the 1 0 5 Specific Order was also last seen in the December 17^th drawing. This Specific Order has now made 10 appearances, and has played in 20% of the 50 drawings where the {5-1} Pattern has appeared, and 0.70% of all Lotto Texas drawings.

Powerball

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern made an encore appearance with winning numbers 6, 32, 47, 62, 65, and PB 19.

Now with 50 appearances, this Pattern has played in approximately 34.2% of the 146 Powerball drawings to date. This Pattern, if you recall, previously played in Wednesday’s drawing.

The [1-1-1-2-1] General Order made its 18^th appearance, its first since the October 22, 2016 drawing. This General Order has now played in 36% of the 50 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 12.3% of all drawings.

Our coverage concludes with the second appearance of the 1 0 1 1 2 1 Specific Order. This Specific Order has now played in 11.1% of the 18 drawings where the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has appeared, 4% of the 50 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared, and in 1.37% of all drawings. The 1 0 1 1 2 1 Specific Order made its debut in the September 3, 2016 drawing.

February ended with a bang for Lotto Texas and Powerball. Will March come in like a lion, or will things mellow out?

Combos with a Side of Australia Play

The lead-up to Mardi Gras showed no signs of slowing down Wednesday night. After seeing the same Pattern in both Lotto Texas and Powerball, the February 22^nd drawing decided to take things up a notch. Both lotteries saw repeating Four-Number and Three-Number Combinations respectively, and there was an Australia Play.

Lotto Texas

The Australia Play was spotted in Lotto Texas. The {2-2-2} Pattern and the 2 2 2 Specific Order made their 193^rd appearance, with winning numbers 4, 8, 21, 27, 52, and 53.

These two have played in 13.6% of the 1423 drawings to date. Lotto Texas last saw an Australia Play in the January 25, 2017 drawing almost a month ago.

The Lotto Texas Mardi Gras momentum got an extra boost with the repeat appearance of two Four-Number Combinations:

4, 8, 21, and 53 (Debuted February 10, 2016)
4, 8, 21, and 27 (Debuted February 19, 2011)

The repeating Four-Number Combinations are highlighted in red boxes.

Powerball

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern retained its position as the most commonly seen Pattern. Its 49^th appearance was thanks to winning numbers 10, 13, 28, 52, 61, and PB 2.

As of Wednesday’s drawing, this Pattern has appeared in 33.8% of the 145 drawings, and had previously played in the recent February 11^th drawing.

The General Order of the evening was [2-1-1-1-1], making its eleventh appearance. This General Order has now played in 22.4% of the 49 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared and in 7.59% of all drawings. Like the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order was also last seen on February 11^th.

The 2 1 0 1 1 1 Specific Order made its second appearance and has now played in 18.2% of the 11 drawings where the [2-1-1-1-1] General Order has appeared. This Specific Order has also played in 4.08% of the 49 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has appeared and in 1.38% of all Powerball drawings. The 2 1 0 1 1 1 Specific Order made its debut in the August 31, 2016 drawing.

Our Powerball coverage concludes with the repeating Three-Number Combination 10, 28, and 61, which made its debut in the July 9, 2016 drawing.

Repeating Three-Number Combination can be seen in the red box.

Will the momentum for Lotto Texas and Powerballl continue as we look forward to Saturday?

Two Rounds of 3-2-1

Although we saw no repeating Four-Number (Lotto Texas) or Three-Number Combinations (Powerball) on February 18^th, 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 739^th time, the {3-2-1} Pattern played with winning numbers 5, 11, 14, 21, 38, and 44.

Winning Texas Lottery numbers. From lotterytrend.com.

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 134^th 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.

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

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 44^th 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 21^st 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.

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 11^th appearance, and it was also last seen on February 1^st. 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 11^th. 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.

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 31^st appearance, the first since the September 17^th, 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 48^th appearance was represented by winning numbers 5, 9, 17, 37, 64, and PB 2.

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 10^th 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 7^th 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 159^th appearance of the {4-2} Pattern.

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.

Snippet of Four-Number Combinations. Repeating Combinations are highlighted in red boxes.

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

Powerball

Powerball saw the 15^th 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.

Snippet of Three-Number Combinations. The repeating Combination is in the red box.

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

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

The 2 4 0 Specific Order made its 27^th appearance, its first since the September 10^th, 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:

8, 19, 25, 26 which debuted on January 14^th, 2014 and previously played in the July 23^rd, 2016 drawing and
8, 13, 19, and 29 which debuted in the February 15^th, 2016 drawing.

Snippet of Four-Number Combinations. The Combination repeating three times is highlighted in blue. The Combination repeating twice is highlighted in red.

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 46^th appearance of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, with winning numbers 6, 13, 16, 17, 52, and PB 25.

This Pattern has now played in 32.9% of the 140 Powerball drawings to date. We last saw this Pattern in the January 21^st, 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 21^st 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 30^th, 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?
