Thai lotto is an integral part of life in Thailand. As one of only two legal forms of gambling (the other being horse racing), it draws an estimated 19 million players each month and can often bring good fortune. Locals claim they have developed various techniques for finding lucky numbers in lottery:
Dreams that feature strange, terrifying nightmares may be an omen that you are about to win the lottery. Take note of what number was present in your nightmare and purchase tickets with that number as soon as possible – especially if an elderly relative can interpret your dreams for you! This strategy works particularly well if there is someone close by that can interpret them and provide interpretation services.
Lucky are those whose family name ends in 5. Also lucky are those whose numbers match someone else, which is why some Thais spend time looking up accident report numbers or driving around town to identify any recently crashed vehicles whose license plates contain numbers they believe to be “unlucky” for those involved and could bring good fortune for themselves.
Thai Lotto tickets can be easily acquired from street vendors. These individuals sell them from brown wooden boxes attached to bicycles all throughout Bangkok, often offering prizes at various price points depending on your desired payment amount.
But for serious players, purchasing tickets online should be your go-to method of choice. Not only is it safer and faster, but you’ll enjoy better odds with wider variety of choices available to you – plus you can play anywhere around the world simply by visiting the government lottery office’s official website.
Thai lottery tickets are printed on yellow thin paper with a watermark featuring a Wayupak bird to prevent counterfeiting, and coated with chemicals which reveal any stains when tested with bleach, providing another safeguard against fraudulent tickets. To further ensure security when purchasing these lotto tickets.
GLO offers six million baht as the grand prize to anyone matching all six winning digits of its lottery. Five lesser prizes ranging from 250,000 baht to 100,000 baht are also given out, awarded for matching any three, four, five or two winning digits respectively. In previous years there had also been bonus prizes, however this year GLO decided against awarding any of them.
