Increasing Jackpots and Fallouts

Greetings Lotterytrend fans! Romulun Harris here. October 19, 2022 was when more leaves started falling. One of those leaves was Powerball’s jackpot increasing up to $550 million. And there were even more surprises in those falling leaves, especially with Lotto Texas. And now, the details.

LOTTO TEXAS

Analysis

Some of those falling leaves were in the form of Lotto Texas winning numbers 7, 14, 16, 21, 44, and 45. This resulted in the frequently played {3-2-1} Pattern making its 1094th appearance.

Even bigger leaves fell and took the form of a Similar Spread that played on December 1, 2007. That Similar Spread was 23:07:02:01:05. The winning numbers from that similar spread were 8, 31, 38, 40, 41, and 46. Despite the difference in orders, the differences between the numbers are the same.

Falling Down and Springing Back Up

One thing about lotteries is that when they get knocked down, they’re usually not down for long! Mega Millions received a double whammy Friday night, with two players winning the jackpot. Tuesday night saw this lottery bounce back and start the upward climb once again, settling at $30 million.

Attack of the {3-2-1} Pattern

Lotto Texas and Powerball have truly embraced a love of repeating Combinations this month. Heck, Lotto Texas saw a repeating Five-Number Combination a couple of weeks ago! That love of repeating Combinations didn’t waver October 15, 2022. In fact, it may have been enhanced by the {3-2-1} Pattern showing up in both Lotto Texas and Powerball! Meanwhile, their respective jackpots continued their upward march to $8 million and $480 million.

The {3-2-1} Pattern is notorious for repeats. Will this Pattern return Monday night, and will the love of repeating Combinations continue?

The Playback Heard ‘Round the World

Well, folks, they finally happened, and yes, we meant “they”! Mega Millions kicked off the weekend with another round of “combinationing”. While out and about, this lottery featured a playback that wasn’t produced by an Australia Play and had its jackpot brought down by not one but two players! After that wild night, the prize was reset to $20 million.

General Lottery Analysis

October 14, 2022 was wild thanks to the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern. With winning numbers 9, 22, 26, 41, 44 and MB 19, this Pattern made its 347th appearance.

Much ado about something! Source: lotterytrend-megamillions.com.

Three-Number Combinations

Naturally, that repeating Four-Number Combination had four repeating Three-Number Combinations bundled inside. Naturally those Combinations debuted in the same June 8th drawing:

  • 9, 22, 41
  • 9, 22, MB 19
  • 22, 41, MB 19
  • 9, 41, MB 19

Those weren’t the only repeating Three-Number Combinations. Repeating Three-Number Combination 22, 26 and 44 debuted June 16, 2017.

With the jackpot having been brought back down to earth, things will be cooling down in Mega Millions for a bit. How much this lottery will cool down in the week ahead is anyone’s guess. There doesn’t need to be a massive jackpot for a lottery to cause a ruckus!

Remember, Remember, the Fifth of…October

In the lottery world, things come and go, but they’re never really forgotten. Whether it was nine years ago or just last week, Patterns and even repeating Combinations have a way of coming back.

October 5th may have only been a week ago, but Lotto Texas and Powerball already felt the nostalgia pangs. Wednesday night was like the previous Wednesday’s in more ways than one. That rush of nostalgia did nothing to slow the jackpots from growing to $7.75 million and $454 million!

Mega Millions’ “Combinationing” Foray

The act of “combinationing” is more than just a lottery having a night out. There are many, emphasis on many, repeating Combinations to be had. A Tuesday night can be just as good a night for Mega Millions to go “combinationing” as a Friday night. Better, even!

October 11, 2022 was a wild night for sure. As Mega Millions hit the Combination scene, a jackpot continued its growth spurt. The behemoth grew ever larger, towering at $494 million.

General Lottery Analysis

Mega Millions didn’t bother with a playback, let alone an Australia Play. Instead, it was time to give attention to a Pattern that doesn’t get much play: the {4-1-1} Pattern! With winning numbers 3, 7, 11, 13, 38 and MB 1, this Pattern made its 18th appearance.

Both the {4-1-1} Pattern and the [4-1-1] General Order were last seen June 14, 2022.

A playback wasn’t meant to be, obviously, but what say you to the debut of a Specific Order? More specifically, the 4 0 1 0 0 1 Specific Order? Naturally, this Specific Order has played in 10% of the 10 drawings where the General Order was [4-1-1]. This Specific Order has also played in 5.56% of the 18 drawings where {4-1-1} was the winning Pattern and in 0.12% of all 818 drawings.

A Swift Return to the Combination Scene

Earlier this week, Lotto Texas and Powerball took a break from the repeating Combinations. They were able to boost their jackpots just as effectively without them. Then, Saturday night happened. That mid-week rest was enough to give Lotto Texas and Powerball the energy to go wild with repeating Three and Four-Number Combinations! Additionally, their respective jackpots climbed to $7.25 million and $401 million.

Will the Combination momentum continue onward to Monday night?

Mega Millions’ Not Quite Playback

For Mega Millions, a playback happens when the Pattern, General Order, and Specific Order share a date when they last played. One notable example of a playback is the Australia Play. The {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, [1-1-1-1-1-1] General Order, and the 1 1 1 1 1 1 Specific Order always play together. What about playbacks that are not Australia Plays? These are harder to come by, but that doesn’t stop Mega Millions from thinking about them!

October 7, 2022 was a night where a playback seemed like a good idea, but Mega Millions couldn’t fully commit to one. Lovers of massive jackpots will be pleased to know that lack of a playback didn’t stop the prize from growing to $445 million.

Is a playback that isn’t an Australia Play in store for Mega Millions Tuesday night, or will this lottery have other plans?
