The title you have just read may be misleading. No one was able
to claim the grand prize in the August 6th, 2019 Mega Millions
drawing. This, in turn, caused the prize to rise to the titular amount. All of
this was thanks to the wonders of the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern.
The [1-1-1-2-1] General Order, now with 50 appearances, has played in 23.1% of the 216 drawings where {2-1-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern. Once all 486 drawings have been taken into consideration, this General Order has played 10.3% of the time.
Now with 12 appearances, the 1 1 1 2 0 1 Specific Order has played in 24% of the 50 drawings where the General Order was [1-1-1-2-1]. This Specific Order has also played in roughly 5.56% of the 216 drawings where {2-1-1-1-1} was the winning Pattern, and in 2.47% of all 486 drawings.
Both the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order and the 1 1 1 2 0 1 Specific Order played July 16th, 2019.

Is a {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern three-peat in the forecast for Friday night?
August 3rd,
2019 was an historic night in the lottery world. Powerball had its 400th
drawing* and with it came a jackpot rise to $112 million! Lotto Texas, meanwhile,
has been following in Powerball’s footsteps. Although nowhere near the
madness its buddy has participated in, a showing form an uncommon Pattern
forced the jackpot to rise to $15 million. That’s still a good amount of prize
money.
*With “regular” numbers 1-69 and Powerballs 1-26.

The next 100 Powerball drawings will most certainly be full of numbers
madness! On to more present matters, could the {2-2-1-1} Pattern make an encore
in Wednesday’s drawing? Will Lotto Texas continue its run with jackpot fever, or
will it come down?
A new month means more opportunities to win the lottery. Of course, this also means more lottery shenanigans! August is one of those hot, and strangely, “boring” months. Sure, there’s the whole back-to-school thing, but Lottery Trend Country (the US of A) doesn’t have any holidays. Nothing on the federal level, at least.
Mega Millions took the hint and there was no {2-2-1-1}
Pattern encore August 2nd, 2019. Instead, a safe, common
approach was taken. The aftermath was the players’ efforts to win the grand
prize thwarted once again. For everyone keeping track, the prize rose to $55
million.

It’s too early to

Pattern is fond of encores! Could
one be in the cards Tuesday night?
July is over. It’s still too hot to do much of anything except swim (or bake) and there’s only two weeks* until school starts. Time keeps on slippin’, as they say!
*Length of time may be different, depending on where you
are.
Now, July 31st,
2019 didn’t rock the boat too much. Save for a similar spread, it
was a quiet night. Neither Lotto Texas nor Powerball saw a grand prize winner,
and their jackpots rose to $14.5 million and $102 million, respectively.

Will Powerball start August with a {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern
encore, and will Lotto Texas continue its jackpot climb?
July was an interesting month for Mega Millions. The jackpot was large but didn’t rise to the dizzying heights we had been seeing. Save for a carryover from June, there were no Pattern streaks. Speaking of, a streak would’ve been a neat way to end the month. Alas, July 30, 2019 didn’t deliver a Pattern streak, let alone an encore. However, it did deliver on an unclaimed prize. With no grand prize winners, the jackpot rose to $50 million.

and all. Could the lottery follow suit and end the summer with a bang? The {2-2-1-1}
Pattern isn’t one to shy away from encores. It’d be something if this Pattern
made an encore Friday night!
July is just
about over, and the start of school is right around the corner. Meanwhile, the
brutal summer sun beats down on everything. One can only hope for a shower to
cool everything off, for a little while at least.
If your name happened to be “Lotto Texas” or “Powerball”, then you cooled off by avoiding earth-shattering plays Saturday night. In fact, the biggest play of July 27, 2019 was an Australia Play. Taking the quiet-ish path helped the jackpots climb to $14 million and $88 million, respectively.

Today’s post is in honor of the dog days of summer. It’s that time from mid-July to mid-(or late) August that comes with heatwaves and record-breaking temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere. In some locations, this year’s summer has been extremely brutal.
Last time, the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern made an appearance. One would expect an encore this time, right? Well, no. Mega Millions opted for something else in the July 26, 2019 drawing. By warming up to an uncommonly seen Pattern, the jackpot rose to $45 million.

Mega Millions got bit by the playback bug this past Friday. That bug bit at least one other lottery July 20th, 2019. Both Lotto Texas and Powerball saw their respective jackpots swell to $12.75 million and $63 million. Question is, which lottery got bit?
