    Looking for the Thai Lottery rules in English

    I tried seaching this on-line and came up with Nil. Would anyone have a translation or a copy of the Lottery rules in English?

    Would be appreciated

    What rules? Buy a ticket. If your number matches one of the winning ones you collect your prize.... Seems straightforward enough.

    CARRABOW. You are supposed to be intelligent (or am I wrong), to understand these things.
    You must have a British Passport, (be a british subject) to win the British lottery. Have you got it. ????
    Reading is a good thing.!!! You should try it.

    I am under the understanding that when I do inquire the rules with the Natives, the translation of the rules are given at a convenience to who ever sells the tickets. I like to know what I am about to go up against and a few Baht on a risk like this is acceptable.

    To put it simply...

    The lottery is usually drawn on the 1st and 16th of every month.

    Now let us say your ticket is number 012345

    Every draw has a two-digit number which carries a ThB 2,000 prize. So in this example if number 45 is drawn you win ThB 2,000.

    Every draw has a further four three digit numbers which carry ThB 4,000 prizes. In this example if 345 is drawn you would win ThB 4,000.

    There is a six-digit winner which I think is worth ThB 3,000,000 so if 012345 is drawn you have enough money to buy a small condo.

    Other six digit numbers are drawn and if any of those is 012345 you can win anything between ThB 10,000 and ThB 50,000. These appear on the government lottery site at around 5pm on lottery days.

    That is putting it fairly simplistically but it is basically all you need to know.

    I forgot to mention, there are two additional large prizes which I think are ThB 100,000 if you have the number either side of the winner.

    Using the above example this would be numbers 012344 and 012346

    There is an established Thai tradition that if you do win the big one you share it 50-50 with the first person who ever explained to you how this all works.

    Don't forget the true or maybe not true rule that a farang is not allowed to claim the prize. At least that is what I have heard, that it must be a Thai national.

    Anyone know?

    NO Plom Plam!! If I win I will ensure you are graciously compensated.

    Like I have said, I started this thread because I kept getting the 'ole banging on the coconut from the missus and her sick interpretation of the rules

    Every time I would ask her or the lady selling the tickets, a different tune would come out. Now I'm armed and dangerous Thanks for shedding some light

    Could anyone tell me where I can phone to report the local lottery shop in town near Udon Thani please? The ticket number I bought Saturday the 16th (yesterday) has the last 3 numbers 109, the 2 number winning number was 09,and one of the three number winners was 109. I sent gf to the shop today to collect my winnings and they said she cant win 2 prizes! she has the choice of 2 number prize or 3 number prize, she brought the ticket back and now I want to know what to do next. I know what I would like to do with the stupid/cheating Barstewards but cannot. I would really like to get them stopped from being lottery agents.
