{3-2-1} Comes Back and Powerball Encores

Both the Lotto Texas and Powerball drawings saw the appearance of their most commonly played Patterns. Not only that, but Powerball was full of encores!

Lotto Texas

The July 20^th, 2016 Lotto Texas gave us the following winning numbers: 12, 18, 19, 20, 21, and 38.

The winning Pattern was {3-2-1}, and having now played 712 times out of 1361 drawings, it leaves all other Patterns in the dust. How so? The {3-2-1} Pattern has played 52.3% of the time. Before the July 20^th drawing, this Pattern played on July 13^th, 2016.

The {3-2-1} Pattern gave way to the 2 3 1 Specific Order, bringing its total number of plays to 117. Looking at just the number of times the {3-2-1} Pattern has played (712), the 2 3 1 Specific Order has played 16.4%. Taking all 1361 Lotto Texas drawings into account, the 2 3 1 Specific Order has played 8.60% of the time. This Specific Order has previously played on June 15^th, 2016.

One noteworthy observation in Lotto Texas’s winning numbers is that 18, 19, 20, and 21 appeared one after the other. This does not happen very often!

Powerball

The winning numbers for Powerball’s July 20^th, 2016 drawing were 6, 25, 35, 58, 66, and PB 5.

These numbers followed the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, which has now played 32 times. Given that there have been 83 Powerball drawings, the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played 38.6% of the time. Although it doesn’t leave other Patterns in the dust like Lotto Texas’s’ {3-2-1}, the {2-1-1-1-1} has a comfortable lead. The {2-1-1-1-1} previously played on July 9^th, 2016.

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern gave way to the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order, which has played 15 times as of the July 20^th drawing. This General Order has played in 46.9% of Powerball drawings in which the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern played. With all 83 Powerball drawings taken into account, the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has played 18.1% of the time. Just like the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order previously played on July 9^th, 2016.

The [1-1-1-2-1] General Order gave way to the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order, now having played 6 times. Out of the 15 times the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has played, the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order has played 40% of the time. If we take into account the 32 times the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played, the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order has played 18.8% of the time. Finally, with all 83 Powerball drawings accounted for, the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order has played 7.23% of the time.

And just like the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern and the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order, the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order played on July 9^th, 2013!

Looking ahead to Saturday’s drawing, will the Lotto Texas {3-2-1} Pattern establish another streak? Will Powerball’s {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern make an encore appearance?

Lotto Texas and Powerball Saturday Night Combo Mambo

Saturday’s drawings for Lotto Texas and Powerball ended the week with a bang. The {3-2-1} Pattern streak in Lotto Texas had been broken and Powerball saw an Australia Play encore!

Lotto Texas

The winning numbers for the July 16^th, 2016 Lotto Texas drawing were 6, 13, 16, 17, 44, and 54.

Instead of the {3-2-1} Pattern that we saw for five consecutive plays, these numbers followed the {4-2} Pattern. Of the 1360 Lotto Texas drawings to date, the {4-2} Pattern has played 146 times, or 10.7% of the time. The last time we saw this Pattern play was back on May 25^th, 2016.

The {4-2} Pattern broke down into the 4 0 2 Specific Order, which prior to Saturday’s drawing hadn’t played since March 30^th, 2016. As of Saturday’s drawing, the 4 0 2 Specific Order has now played 20 times. Out of the 146 Lotto Texas drawings in which {4-2} has played, the 4 0 2 Specific Order has appeared 13.7% of the time. When we take all 1360 Lotto Texas drawings into account, this Specific Order has played only 1.47% of the time.

We also saw the appearance of three Four-Number Combinations, each having played twice. This is the first time our blog has covered such an occurrence! The three Four-Number Combinations were as follows:

The Four-Number Combos highlighted in red boxes. From lotterytrend.com

6, 13, 17, and 54 which first played September 8^th, 2001.
16, 17, 44, and 54 which first played June 22^nd, 2013.
6, 16, 17, and 44 which first played March 24^th, 2010.

Powerball

The winning numbers for the July 16^th, 2016 Powerball drawing were 11, 17, 40, 50, 62, and PB 26.

These numbers gave way to the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, which in fact played July 13^th, 2016 (this past Wednesday). Given the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, we also saw the [1-1-1-1-1-1] General Order and the 1 1 1 1 1 1 Specific Order. This consecutive Australia Play brings the total number of drawings for the Pattern, General Order, and Specific Order up to 10. With 82 Powerball drawings to date, all three have played 12.2% of the time.

Powerball also saw some action with previously played Combinations. We saw two Three-Number Combinations make a second appearance. These Three-Number Combinations were

40, 50, and 62, which first played February 10^th, 2016.
11, 50, and 62, which first played March 12^th, 2016.

Looking ahead to next week, will the {4-2} Pattern create its own streak? Will Powerball see an Australia Play three-peat?

{3-2-1} Five in a Row and June Returns to Powerball

In the July 13^th drawings, Lotto Texas basked in the July sun, whereas Powerball was visited by June. More specifically, Powerball was visited by this past June.

Lotto Texas

The winning numbers in the July 13^th, 2016 Lotto Texas drawings were 3, 7, 16, 27, 34, and 46.

As of today, we can say that the {3-2-1} Pattern has made five, yes five consecutive appearances! The past four appearances were on June 29^th, July 2nd, July 6^th, and July 9^th. The July 13^th drawing brought the number of {3-2-1} Pattern appearances up to 711. Given the 1359 Lotto Texas drawings to date, this Pattern has played 52.3% of the time. There is no contest. The {3-2-1} Pattern continues to be far and away the most commonly seen Pattern in Lotto Texas!

The 3 2 1 Specific Order has now played 127 times, and in fact made a previous appearance in the July 2^nd, 2016 drawing. Given the 711 times in which the {3-2-1} Pattern has played, this Specific Order has appeared in approximately 17.9% of these drawings. Taking all 1359 Lotto Texas drawings into account, the 3 2 1 Specific Order has played 9.35% of the time.

The July 13^th, 2016 Lotto Texas drawing also saw a Four-Number Combination play in the form of 16, 27, 34,46. The first time this Combination played was back on September 18^th, 2013.

Powerball

Powerball’s winning numbers for July 13^th, 2016 were 3, 15, 29, 54, 57 and PB 10.

These numbers followed the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, which in fact played on June 25^th, 2016. The {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern has now appeared in 9 of 81 Powerball drawings. Given the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, we had a [1-1-1-1-1-1] General Order and a 1 1 1 1 1 1 Specific Order. Since this an Australia Play, that means the [1-1-1-1-1-1] General Order and the 1 1 1 1 1 1 Specific Order have also appeared in 9 out of 81 drawings. All three have played in 11.1% of all Powerball drawings.

As we’ve explained in previous posts, an Australia Play is a fascinating event. With Powerball, it means that the Pattern, General Order, and Specific Order are the same. Looking back on fourth grade geography (or a Google search), Australia is the only country that’s also a continent. Not only that, but Australia is the only permanently inhabited continent entirely within the Southern Hemisphere.

There was only one place where June didn’t have a grip on Powerball, and that was in the Three-Number Combination. This Combination was brought to us by 15, 29, and 10, and it first played on January 2^nd, 2016.

As we look ahead to Saturday’s Lotto Texas and Powerball drawings, will Lotto Texas see a break from the {3-2-1} Pattern? Will Powerball see an Australia Play encore?

Lotto Texas {3-2-1} Four-Peat and Powerball {2-1-1-1-1} Encore

In the July 9^th Lotto Texas and Powerball drawings, we bid adieu to June and say “Welcome back” to the July 6^th, 2016 plays in more ways than one.

Lotto Texas

The winning numbers for the July 9^th, 2016 Lotto Texas drawing were 6, 19, 22, 28, 39, and 49.

Winning Lotto TX numbers taken from lotterytrend.com

For the fourth time in a row, the {3-2-1} Pattern has played! The {3-2-1} Pattern has now played in 710 of 1358 Lotto Texas drawings. With a stat of 52.3%, it retains its position as the most commonly seen Lotto Texas Pattern by a country mile.

The Specific Order was 1 3 2, which previously played on May 7^th, 2016. As of the July 9^th drawing, this Specific Order has appeared in 104 of the 710 drawings in which the {3-2-1} Pattern has played. This is roughly 14.7% of the time. However, if we take all 1358 Lotto Texas drawings into account, we see that the 1 3 2 Specific Order has played 7.66% of the time.

Powerball

Powerball’s winning numbers for the July 9^th, 2016 drawing were 10, 28, 32, 61, 64, and PB12.

These numbers played in the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern and have now appeared in 31 of 80 Powerball drawings, or 38.8% of the time. This Pattern not only last played on July 6^th, 2016, it continues to be the most commonly seen Powerball Pattern to date.

The General Order was a [1-1-1-2-1], which also played on July 6^th, 2016. As of July 9^th, the General Order has appeared in 14 of the 31 drawings in which the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played. This comes out to approximately 45.2% of the time. Taking all 80 Powerball drawings into account, the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has played 17.5% of the time.

Last night’s numbers followed the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order, having previously played on July 6^th, 2016. Having now appeared in 5 out of 14 drawings in which the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has played, or 35.7% of the time. With all 80 Powerball drawings to date taken into account, the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order has now been seen 6.25% of the time.

We ended the previous week with June loosening its grip on Lotto Texas and Powerball. Is this only temporary, or will plays of Junes past come back and dominate? Will the Lotto Texas {3-2-1} Pattern make a fifth consecutive appearance, and will the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern see a three-peat?

The June Is Strong With These Two

Just like we saw with Mega Millions on Tuesday, the Lotto Texas and Powerball drawings were covered in June. Not just any June, but this past June. We also saw a Lotto Texas three-peat!

Lotto Texas

The winning numbers for the July 6, 2016 Lotto Texas drawing were 2, 3, 17, 35, 41, and 44.

LottoTX_20160706 — Winning numbers from lotterytrend.com

The winning Pattern was a {3-2-1}, which in fact played on July 2, 2016, making this a three-peat appearance. As of the July 6, 2016 Lotto Texas drawing, the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared in 709 times out of 1357, or 52.2%.

The Specific Order was a 3 1 2, which last appeared in the June 22, 2016 drawing. The 3 1 2 Specific Order has now appeared in 127 of the 709 drawings, or 17.9% of the time in which the {3-2-1} Pattern has played. If we were to take all 1357 Lotto Texas drawings into account, then the 3 1 2 Specific Order has appeared in about 9.4% of the drawings.

Looks like Lotto Texas had one foot in June, and one foot in July.

Powerball

Powerball’s winning numbers for July 6, 2016 were as follows: 2, 24, 31, 57, 66, and PB 18.

These numbers played in the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, and has now appeared in 30 out of 79, or about 38%, of Powerball drawings. Prior to the July 6^th, drawing, this Pattern played on June 8, 2016.

The General Order of the night was [1-1-1-2-1], and as of the July 6^th drawing has appeared in 13 out of the 30 drawings, or 43.3% of the time, in which the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played. If we take all 79 Powerball drawings into account, then the [1-1-1-2-1] has appeared 16.5% of the time. Just like the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, this also appeared in the June 8, 2016 Powerball drawing.

Last, but certainly not least, we have the Specific Order. The July 6^th numbers followed the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order which last played…get ready for this…June 8^th, 2016! Not only did Powerball embrace the June, it embraced June 8^th all around.

With that said, the 1 1 1 0 2 1 Specific Order has now appeared in 4 out of the 13 drawings in which the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has played. That’s about 30.8%. However, if we were to take all 79 Powerball drawings into account, the statistic would be 5.1%.

Even though June didn’t totally dominate, it had a pretty strong hold. What will Saturday’s Lotto Texas and Powerball drawings have in store?

June Is Busting Out All Over!

Last night’s Mega Millions really brought out the post-Fourth of July fireworks. We saw repeats for the Pattern, General Order, and Specific Order, but more importantly, all of them had played just last month! Although the calendar says we’ve started a new month, June decided to stick around a bit longer.

The winning Mega Millions numbers for July 5^th, 2016 are 29, 46, 53, 64, 73, and MB 10.

Winning numbers for Mega Millions taken from lotterytrend-megamillions.com

These numbers played in the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, which has now played 91 times out of 283, or 32.2%. In fact, this Pattern last played nearly two weeks ago on June 24^th, 2016.

The {2-2-1-1} Pattern gave way to the [1-2-2-1] General Order, which as of last night’s drawing, has appeared in 23 of the 91 Mega Millions drawings in which the {2-2-1-1} pattern has played. That brings this General Order’s stats up to 25.3%. If we take all 283 Mega Millions drawings into account, the [1-2-2-1] General Order has appeared in 8.13% of the plays. Prior to last night’s drawing, the [1-2-2-1] made a previous appearance on June 7^th, 2016.

We also saw the 0 1 0 2 2 1 Specific Order make its third appearance. When was its second appearance, you wonder? Are you ready for this?

June 7^th, 2016.

Out of the 23 drawings in which the [1-2-2-1] General Order has appeared, the stats for the 0 1 0 2 2 1 Specific Order have gone up to 13%. Taking into account the 91 drawings in which the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has played, this Specific Order has played 3.3% of the time. Taking it even further, if all 283 Mega Millions drawings to date are taken into account, this Specific Order has appeared in 1.1% of them.

And it’s not over yet.

Last night’s Mega Millions saw the appearance of a Four-Number Combination in the form of 29, 46, 64, and MB 10.

Four-Number Combo from last night in red box. Taken from lotterytrend-megamillions.com

The first appearance of this lovely combination was a little over two years ago…on June 24^th, 2014!

Will more June bust out in Friday’s Mega Millions, or will other months edge their way in?

Saturday Night Repeats: {3-2-1} and {2-2-1-1} Edition

Last night’s Lotto Texas and Powerball drawings were all about repeats!

Lotto Texas

The winning numbers for July 2, 2016 were 1, 8, 12, 22, 26, and 37.

Winning numbers taken from lotterytrend.com

These numbers played in the {3-2-1} Pattern, which in fact appeared in the June 29, 2016 Lotto Texas drawing! This Pattern has now appeared in 708 of 1356 drawings, or 52.2% of the time. No doubt about it; the {3-2-1} Pattern continues to dominate Lotto Texas!

The Specific Order from Wednesday did not appear. Instead, we saw a 3 2 1 Specific Order, making its number of appearances 126 out of 708 drawings, or 17.8% of the time that the {3-2-1} Pattern has played. The 3 2 1 Specific Order made a previous showing in the April 13, 2016 drawing. If we were take all 1356 Lotto Texas drawings into account, this Specific Order has played 9.3% of the time.

We also saw a Four-Number Combination in the form 1, 8, 22, and 26.

The Four-Number Combination is highlighted in the red box. Taken from lotterytrend.com

Prior to the July 2^nd drawing, this Four-Number Combination played December 21, 2013.

Powerball

Powerball’s winning numbers for July 2^nd, 2016 were 10, 34, 39, 59, 63, and PB 4.

Once again, the {2-2-1-1} Pattern made an appearance this week, bringing it up to 27 out of 78 Powerball drawings, or 34.6%.

The [1-2-2-1] General Order also made an encore, now having appeared 11 times out of the 27 drawings in which the {2-2-1-1} Pattern has appeared, or 40.7%. As of the July 2, 2016 Powerball drawing, the [1-2-2-1] is the most commonly seen General Order associated with the {2-2-1-1} Pattern. If we take all 78 Powerball drawings into account, then the [1-2-2-1] has played 14.1% of the time.

Unlike the Pattern and the General Order, the Specific Order from Wednesday didn’t appear. Instead, we saw the 1 0 2 0 2 1 Specific Order play. Out of the 11 appearances of the [1-2-2-1] General order, this Specific Order has played twice, or 18.1% of the time. The 1 0 2 0 2 1 Specific previously played on May 28, 2016.

Looking ahead to the July 6^thdrawings, will the Lotto Texas and Powerball Patterns make a three-peat appearance?

Lotto Texas and Powerball Wednesday Night Callbacks

June 29^th’s Lotto Texas and Powerball drawings didn’t see Australia Plays or throwbacks to Four-Number (Lotto Texas) or Three-Number (Powerball) Combinations last seen several years ago. What we did see was a callback to Patterns seen just last week.

Lotto Texas

The winning Lotto Texas numbers were 3, 7, 22, 40, 44, and 53.

These numbers played in a {3-2-1} Pattern, which in fact played in the June 22, 2016 drawing! The {3-2-1} Pattern continues to reign supreme as the most commonly seen Lotto Texas pattern. Given last night’s results, {3-2-1-} has now appeared in 707 out of 1355 Lotto Texas drawings, or 52.2%.

The {3-2-1} Pattern gave way to the 2 1 3 Specific Order, which previously played on April 23^rd, 2016. Now at 105 appearances, this Specific Order has now played 14.9% of the time the {3-2-1} Pattern has played.

Powerball

The winning numbers for Powerball were 23, 29, 37, 60, 64, and PB 6.

The numbers played in the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, which also appeared in the June 22, 2016 Powerball drawing. After last night’s drawing, the {2-2-1-1} has now appeared 26 times out of 77 drawings, or 33.8%.

The [1-2-2-1] General Order made an encore appearance, having also appeared on June 22, 2016. Given the 26 appearances of the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, the [1-2-2-1] has now appeared in 10 of them, bringing it up to 38.5%.

Even with a repeat performance from the Pattern and the General Order, we didn’t see this with the Specific Order. The 0 1 2 0 2 1 Specific Order made its first appearance since December 19, 2015. This has now appeared twice out of the 10 times the [1-2-2-1] General Order has appeared.

What will Lotto Texas and Powerball have in store for us on Saturday? Will we see pre-Fourth of July fireworks?

Mambos with Combos and the Australia Play Returns to Powerball

While the June 21st drawing may have seemed a bit underwhelming, the week went out with a bang. Both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw rarely played Combinations and Powerball saw yet another Australia Play.

Lotto Texas

The winning numbers for June 25^th, 2016 for Lotto Texas were 8, 15, 17, 40, 42, and 46.

LottoTx_20160626 — Winning numbers taken from lotterytrend.com

These numbers played in a {3-3} Pattern, which in fact last played on May 28^th, 2016. The {3-3} Pattern has now played 114 times in the 1354 drawings, bringing it up to 8.42%. Given the {3-3} Pattern, the Specific Orders that are possible are

0 3 3

3 0 3

3 3 0

The June 24^th Lotto Texas drawing saw the 3 0 3 Specific Order play, and it too previously appeared on May 28^th, 2016. With that said, the 3 0 3 Specific Order has now played 38 times out of 114 drawings, or 33% of the time in which the {3-3} Pattern has played.

June 25^th saw a Four-Number Combination in the form of 17, 40, 42, and 46.

LottoTx_20160626_FourNum — Note the Four-Number Combo in the red box. Taken from lotterytrend.com

This Four-Number Combination has appeared not once, but twice before! The first appearance was back on January 22^nd, 2003 and the second appearance was back on March 19^th, 2008.

Powerball

The winning Powerball numbers for June 24^th, 2016 were 3, 27, 36, 56, 69, and PB25.

These numbers played in a {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, which in fact played exactly one week ago on June 18^th, 2016! This Pattern has now appeared in 8 out of 76 Powerball drawings, bringing it up to 10.52%. Given the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, the only possible General Order is [1-1-1-1-1-1] and the Specific Order is 1 1 1 1 1 1. Logically, the General Order and the Specific Order also appeared in the June 18^th Powerball drawing. Just like Australia is both a country and a continent, the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern is also a Specific Order. For those of you who have just started to check out our fair blog, we like to call such plays Australia Plays.

We also saw a Three-Number Combination in the form of 3, 27, and 69.

Three-Number Combo is in the red box. Taken from lotterytrend-powerball.com

This combination played once before on March 5^th, 2016.

Looking at the week ahead, will Lotto Texas and Powerball bring more surprises in the form of rarely-seen Combinations? Will Powerball see an Australia Play Saturday three-peat?

Yoohoo! {3-2-1} and a {2-2-1-1}

The June 22, 2016 drawings for Lotto Texas and Powerball didn’t give us any Australia Plays, nor did we see Four-Number Combos that hadn’t played since the day cats and zombies officially took over the Internet. However, both lotteries saw Patterns that played just last week.

Lotto Texas

The winning numbers for the June 22^nd drawing were 4, 5, 14, 32, 37, and 49.

Taken from lotterytrend.com — From lotterytrend.com

These numbers played in the {3-2-1} Pattern, which in fact played June 15^th. As of now, this Pattern has appeared in 706 of 1353 drawings, or 52%. This truly is King of Patterns.

The {3-2-1} Pattern gave way to a 3 1 2 Specific Order, which prior to last night’s drawing played on March 19, 2016. This Specific Order has now played 126 times out of the 706 drawings the {3-2-1} Pattern has appeared, bringing it up to 17.8%. While a commonly seen Specific Order for this particular Pattern, it is not the most common.

Powerball

The June 22^nd drawing gave us these winning numbers: 14, 40, 42, 43, 52, PB17.

Here we see the {2-2-1-1} Pattern, and it too made an appearance in the June 15^th drawing. The tally for this Pattern is now 25 times out of 75 drawings, or 33%. The General Order [1-2-2-1] has now played 9 times out of the 25 times the {2-2-1-1} has appeared, or 36% of the time. In fact, this General Order was also seen in the June 15, 2016 drawing. The [1-2-2-1] General Order saw a newly played Specific Order in the form of 1 0 2 2 0 1.

Will the {3-2-1} and the {2-2-1-1} Patterns for Lotto Texas and Powerball, respectively, show up again in Saturday’s drawings, or will other Patterns make an appearance? Will we see an Australia Play or a Four-Number Combo that had previously played in the ancient days of dial-up?
