Down Into the Mega Millions Canyon

One month ago, a lone player from New York won a massive jackpot. On October 22, 2021, it was Arizona’s turn to produce a winner. Even though the jackpot didn’t get the chance to grow as large as it had in September, it’s highly doubtful that the $108 million prize would be turned down! As it goes, the jackpot once again reset to $20 million.

General Lottery Analysis

The {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern was responsible for taking down the jackpot this time, with winning numbers 9, 14, 26, 29, 66 and MB 22. This Pattern has now played 305 times.

The Lottery Mid-Week Double Encore Chiller

It’s that time of year again! All the pumpkin spice-themed food and accessories, not to mention actual pumpkins, candy sales, and decorations mean one thing: Halloween is upon us. Now, lotteries don’t go bump in the night or suck your blood, but they can and do have the power to scare. After all, the prospect of winning millions of dollars is both exciting and terrifying, isn’t it? Want to know what else is terrifying? When lotteries don’t let anyone take off with their jackpots, especially if you don’t know how they did it. How a lottery dashes dreams of overnight riches changes up; fun to keep the players on their toes, after all.

October 20, 2021 meant rising jackpots for both Lotto Texas and Powerball. Through the power of a double encore and an assist from repeating Three and Four-Number Combinations, their respective jackpots climbed to $7 million and $86 million.

Passing Up on a Playback

There was good news and bad news concerning the October 19, 2021 Mega Millions drawing. First the bad. If you or anyone else you know is a fan of the playback (Pattern, General Order, and Specific Order all played together in a previous drawing), then Tuesday’s drawing was so close, yet so far. The good news is that the Mega Millions jackpot crossed the $100 million threshold. With the help of a “near playback”, the prize shot up to $108 million.

A Spread Here and a Debut There

Lotto Texas and Powerball took things down a notch Saturday night. For starters, the former didn’t see an Australia Play return, and the latter didn’t go as crazy on the repeating Three-Number Combinations as it did last time. Nevertheless, the momentum of rising jackpots was still present. Lotto Texas, with an assist from a not-so-common Pattern, pushed the jackpot to $6.5 million. Powerball also went with the root of playing an uncommonly seen Pattern and sent its jackpot to $65 million.

Lotto Texas

General Lottery Analysis

October 16, 2021 saw the 205th appearance of the {4-2} Pattern, with winning numbers 26, 27, 32, 36, 37, and 42.

Similar Spread

Before we get to the repeating Four-Number Combinations (mild spoiler: there was one), we need to talk about the similar spread. Saturday night’s numbers had a spread of 01:05:04:01:05. This was similar to what was seen back on May 4, 2002. Then, the winning numbers were 4, 5, 10, 11, 16 and 20, and their spread was 01:05:01:05:04. Even though the differences between the numbers played were the same, note that the order in which they played is different.

Mega Millions and the {2-2-1-1} Pattern Addiction

Addiction. Now that’s a loaded word. When most people see or hear “addiction”, they’re thinking of someone who can’t resist. Just one more swig. Just one more slice of pizza. Just. One. More. What now, do you do if a lottery has an addiction?

A strange question, true, but since the beginning of October, Mega Millions has hitched itself to the {2-2-1-1} Pattern. As Mega Millions stuck with this Pattern, the jackpot continued to rise.
