Will the {2-2-1-1} Pattern establish a Pattern streak next week?

Monday on Wednesday

Ever since Lotto Texas and Powerball decided to show up on Monday nights, that became one more night of mischief. One more night where the jackpot rises, one more night to try your luck, and one more night that that show up in a Pattern streak. Well, potential streak, really.

October 6, 2021 saw not one but two Pattern encores. Both Lotto Texas and Powerball loved Monday night so much that they decided to do it all over again! The double playback boosted the jackpots to $5.5 million and $31 million, respectively.

With September ending on a high note for both Lotto Texas and Powerball, will either hit a low Saturday night?

Mega Millions and The Great Jackpot Cycle

Every night a lottery plays feeds into The Great Jackpot Cycle. Whether they’re towering behemoths or just starting to put on their running shoes, it’s inevitable that jackpots will fall, then rise again. This cycle will repeat for as long as lotteries exist.

As of September 28, 2021, the Mega Millions jackpot is in the “rise” stage of the cycle. It will be a while yet before the jackpot soars past $400 million, but $34 million isn’t too bad of a stopping point.

As Mega Millions bids farewell to September, it does so with its most commonly played Pattern.  Will October begin with a {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern encore that pushes the jackpot even higher?

Jackpots Firmly Rooted

As some things change, others remain the same. Even though summer has transitioned to fall well, the Lotto Texas and Powerball jackpots just won’t fall. In fact, the thrill of high jackpots just makes these lotteries even more unwilling to give in! At least, that’s what Saturday night suggested.

Neither Lotto Texas nor Powerball were willing to go down September 25, 2021. A Pattern streak and a Pattern encore were on tap, and there was a repeating Four-Number Combination somewhere. Once the dust settled, Lotto Texas’s jackpot climbed to $19.25 million (it could just taste the $20 million mark). Meanwhile, Powerball, monster that it is, grew to $545 million.

Small Pattern, Big Impressions

The {3-2-1} Pattern isn’t commonly seen in Mega Millions. When it does play, it sometimes leaves a lasting impression. After being The One Pattern that knocked the jackpot down to a “earthly” value, it decided to stick around for a bit longer! With the return of the {3-2-1} Pattern came an explosion of repeating Three-Number Combinations and a jackpot that stood back up, standing at $22 million.

Falling for Massive Jackpots

Time flies, doesn’t it? September 22, 2021 was the start of fall. Speaking of fall, a massive jackpot has fallen: Mega Millions! Tuesday night, the last night of the summer, was when the beastly jackpot was brought down. Meanwhile, the jackpots in Lotto Texas and Powerball only went one way. Up.

Lotto Texas was besides itself with a jackpot that rose to $18.75 million. However, it must be said that Powerball’s crossing over the half-billion-dollar mark was a showstopper. The prize there climbed to a dizzying $523 million!
