New Toto game that pays fixed prizes will start with June 12 draw
A new fixed-bet game called Toto Match will be launched by Singapore Pools starting with its June 12 draw, as the lottery operator looks to "adapt to evolving market trends". On its website, the company said the launch comes in "response to consumer preferences for a fixed-payout model in the Toto game". Unlike the traditional Toto game, where players can win a jackpot prize, Toto Match pays out a fixed prize amount per dollar bet. Therefore, a higher bet will translate into a bigger payout. To play, punters can place bets under two game types. They may play either one or both. The first requires players to pick between two and four numbers from one to 49. They will win if all their selected numbers are included in the six winning numbers for that particular Toto draw. For this type, prizes differ based on how many numbers the player selects in one bet. For every dollar bet, players can win $50 for two matched numbers, $500 for three numbers and $7,000 for four numbers. In the second game type, players can choose one number from one to 49. They will win $30 for every dollar bet if this number matches the additional number for that Toto draw. For example, a player who bets $2 on the "match additional number" game will receive a payout of $60 if the chosen number is drawn. Players must place a Toto Match bet to be eligible for a prize. Placing a normal Toto bet will not qualify for a prize. Singapore Pools said on June 3 that it found that there has been a growing interest in fixed odds-style games. "Some bettors were turning to illegal operators for such games because of the lack of many legally available fixed-odds bet types," it added. "With the introduction of Toto Match, we aim to offer our customers a safe, regulated and trusted channel to participate in fixed-odds betting." Sales for Toto Match will be available at all Singapore Pools branches and authorised retail outlets from June 10.

Singapore Pools rolls out new lottery game with fixed winnings June 12 to curb illegal gambling
SINGAPORE, June 4 — Singapore-owned lottery company Singapore Pools will launch a new fixed-bet game called Toto Match with its first draw on June 12. The game is being introduced in response to public demand for a fixed-payout model in the popular Toto lottery, according to several Singapore-based news agencies. The company also hopes the new game will help deter gamblers from turning to illegal betting operators. Sales for Toto Match will begin from June 10 at all Singapore Pools branches and authorised outlets. Unlike the traditional Toto game which offers a jackpot prize, Toto Match pays out a fixed amount per dollar bet. This means the higher your bet, the bigger your potential payout. How it works Punters can place bets under two types of games, and may choose to play either or both. In the first game type, players select between two and four numbers from 1 to 49. They win if all their selected numbers match the six winning numbers in the Toto draw. For every S$1 bet, the payout is S$50 for two matched numbers, S$500 for three, and S$7,000 for four. In the second game type, players pick one number from 1 to 49. They win S$30 for every S$1 bet if their chosen number matches the additional number drawn in the Toto draw. Only bets placed under Toto Match are eligible for the fixed payouts. Regular Toto bets do not qualify for these prizes.

Singapore Pools launches new Toto fixed prize game debuting with June 12 draw, Singapore News
Singapore Pools has introduced a new Toto format called Toto Match, which pays out a fixed prize for every dollar bet, starting with the June 12 draw. While the traditional Toto format has a jackpot prize, Toto Match allows punters to win bigger payouts when they make larger bets. For every Toto draw, six winning numbers and one additional number will be chosen between one and 49. Two bet types are available under Toto Match and punters can participate in both for the same draw. First, players can bet on matching either two, three, or four numbers from the winning draw. For every dollar bet, players will receive $50 for two matches, $500 for three matches, and $7,000 for four matches. Under this type, players must have the selected number of matches to win the corresponding prize. For example, if a player bets on getting three matches but has only two, he will not receive the $50 prize for two matches. The second bet type allows punters to choose one number from one to 49. They will win $30 for every dollar bet if their selected number is the additional number of the draw. On its website, Singapore Pools said: "The launch of Toto Match is in response to consumer preferences for a fixed payout model in Toto game." Zhang Zhong Qing, who buys Toto regularly, told AsiaOne he was interested in buying Toto Match. "A new format renews hope for punters and adds a sense of novelty," the 51-year-old said. However, some punters said the payouts were too little and unattractive. "The attraction of Toto is the dream of clinching the top prize. Setting a fixed prize diminishes the attraction, might as well just do 4D," Koh Hui Sze, 51, said. Sales for Toto Match will be available at all Singapore Pools branches and authorised retail outlets from June 10. [[nid:714606]]
