Other Ways to Play
Perm (Rambol)
Plays every order of your 4 digits, each as a ₱10 play, so they can match in any order.
Your 4 digitsCost
- All different, like 1 2 3 4: 24 orders
- ₱240
- One pair, like 1 2 3 3: 12 orders
- ₱120
- Two pairs, like 1 1 2 2: 6 orders
- ₱60

Roll 1 and Roll 4
You pick 3 digits, and the machine plays every digit from 0 to 9 in the 4th place: the first place with Roll 1, the last with Roll 4. That makes 10 plays, ₱100 in all.
