The Thai Lottery (Government Lottery of Thailand) is a state-run national lottery established to generate public revenue and discourage illegal gambling. Draws are held twice a month, on the 1st and 16th. It’s one of the few forms of legal gambling permitted in Thailand. Millions of citizens and foreign enthusiasts participate, analyzing numerical patterns, historical results, and formula-based predictions.
Legal Background
The Thai Lottery operates under the Government Lottery Office (GLO) Act, B.E. 2517 (1974) and its later amendments.
Key points include:
-
The GLO is the only authorized issuer and regulator of lottery tickets in Thailand.
-
Tickets are pre-printed and sold through authorized agents at fixed prices (usually 80 baht per ticket).
-
Manipulation, forgery, or illegal sale of tickets is punishable under Thai criminal law.
-
Prize payments are tax-deducted at 0.5% for winnings and must be claimed within two years from the draw date.
3-Digit Prize Structure
The 3-digit prize is one of the most popular categories in the Thai Lottery, often used in prediction and analysis formulas (“3up,” “down,” or “touch”).
The structure generally includes:
| Category | Winning Basis | Description | Approx. Prize (Baht) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Digit Top Prize | Last 3 digits of the 1st Prize | Match the last 3 digits in the same order | 4,000 |
| 3-Digit Front Prize | First 3 digits drawn separately | Two sets of 3-digit numbers drawn | 4,000 each |
| 2-Digit Prize | Last 2 digits of the 1st Prize | Match the last two digits | 2,000 |
| 1st Prize | Main jackpot number (6 digits) | Central prize of the draw | 6,000,000 |
| Other prizes | Various ranks (e.g., 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th) | Based on closeness to 1st Prize | 100,000–40,000 |
