What your ticket costs: five worked examples
Straight is one number at one price. Box is one price for every arrangement of your digits, and the count depends on repeats. Five tickets, worked through line by line.
1234 Straight at 1.00
One number, one stake: the ticket costs 1.00. It wins only if 1234 comes out exactly. If it takes first prize it pays 3,500.00; Special pays 500.00; Luck By Chance pays 100.00. A Straight is the simplest ticket there is, and the quote shows exactly this before you buy.
1234 Box at 1.00
Four different digits make 24 arrangements, from 1234 to 4321, and you pay the stake on each, so the ticket costs 24.00. If one arrangement comes out, it is paid on its own 1.00 stake: 4321 in Consolation pays 200.00. More than one arrangement can win in the same draw, each at its own tier.
1123 Box at 0.50
One repeated digit cuts the arrangements to 12, because swapping the two 1s changes nothing. At 0.50 a number the ticket costs 6.00. A first prize on any of the 12 would pay 1,750.00, which is 3,500 times the 0.50 staked on that arrangement.
1122 Box at 2.00, and 8888 Box
Two pairs make only 6 arrangements, so at 2.00 a number the ticket costs 12.00. Three of a kind, such as 7771, makes 4. And four of a kind makes exactly one: 8888 Box is the same ticket as 8888 Straight, costs the same, and the quote says so. Whatever you choose, read the total on the quote before you confirm.
