How to Bet 4D — at 3WEcasino

Understand the choices, place smarter entries, and play responsibly

4D (4-Digit) is one of Southeast Asia’s most popular number games. You pick a 4-digit number (0000–9999), choose how you want to bet (exact order or permutations), and select a Big or Small entry. Draws typically happen three times a week (commonly Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday) with occasional Special Draws. This guide explains the options clearly so you can place your entries with confidence and a plan.

Always bet with licensed operators only and within your local laws. Treat 4D as entertainment—set limits and stick to them.

How to Bet

How to Bet The core bet types

A) Straight / Exact Order

  • What it means: Your 4 digits must match the winning number in the exact order.

  • Why choose it: Highest prize potential for the stake, but the toughest to hit.

  • Example: You buy 1234 (Straight). Result is 1234 → win. Result 1243 → lose.

B) iBet / Permutation (a.k.a. “Box”)

  • What it means: You cover all different orders of your 4 digits.

  • How it works: The stake is split across each unique permutation; your payout is pro-rated accordingly.

  • Example: Number 1234 has 24 unique orders. If you iBet it, you’re covering all 24.

    • If your number has repeating digits (e.g., 1123), the number of permutations is smaller (12), so each share is bigger.

C) Big vs Small

  • Big Entry: Wider prize coverage (1st, 2nd, 3rd + Special/Consolation tiers). Lower top prize than Small, but more ways to win.

  • Small Entry: Covers only 1st/2nd/3rd. Higher top prize potential, fewer winning tiers.

D) Roll (Rxxx, xRxx, xxRx, xxxR) — where available

  • What it means: You “roll” one position, letting it be any digit 0–9.

  • Why it’s useful: Covers 10 numbers quickly (e.g., R234 = 0234, 1234, 2234 … 9234).

  • Note: Cost scales with coverage; check the slip or app preview before confirming.

How to Bet Step-by-step: placing a 4D entry

  1. Choose your 4 digits

    • Birthdays, car plates, random picks, or quick-picks—there’s no predictive edge. Choose what you enjoy.

  2. Pick your format

    • Straight if you want the highest top prize per unit.

    • iBet/Permutation if you want order flexibility (especially good for mixed digits like 1-2-3-4).

  3. Select Big or Small

    • Big for more tiers (wider coverage).

    • Small for higher top-tier potential.

  4. Decide your stake

    • Many operators allow low minimums per entry so you can split budget across selections.

  5. Pick the draw date

    • Commonly Wed / Sat / Sun; Special Draws may appear on certain weekdays.

  6. Confirm & keep your receipt

    • If you’re using an app/online platform (where legal), screenshot or save your ticket code.

How to Bet iBet math in one minute

  • A 4-digit number has up to 24 permutations when all digits are different (e.g., 1-2-3-4).

  • Repeated digits reduce permutations:

    • AABC pattern (e.g., 1123) → 12 permutations

    • AABB (e.g., 1122) → 6 permutations

    • AAAB (e.g., 1112) → 4 permutations

    • AAAA (e.g., 1111) → 1 permutation (same as Straight)

With iBet, your stake is divided across the permutation count. If you win, the payout reflects the share on the winning order. It’s more coverage, lower per-order return—a fair trade if you value flexibility.

How to Bet Example setups

  • Beginner, steady approach

    • 1–2 Straight numbers you love (Small entry) + 1 iBet favourite (Big entry).

    • Split a modest budget so you’re in the draw without overspending.

  • Coverage-first

    • 1 iBet with all different digits (24 permutations) on Big, plus a small Straight on the same number for a shot at the top tier.

  • Roll sampler (where allowed)

    • 1 Rxxx entry to cover a theme (e.g., lucky suffix), then 1 Straight number with Small for top-tier focus.

How to Bet Bankroll & ticket habits

  • Set a weekly cap and treat it as entertainment spend.

  • Many small entries beat one oversized ticket. Diversify formats (Straight + iBet + maybe a Roll).

  • Stick to draw days you can follow. Consistency beats random bursts.

  • Track your tickets. A simple spreadsheet or phone note helps you stay honest with spend and results.

  • Take breaks. If you feel tilt or chasing, step back—results don’t “owe” you.

How to Bet FAQs

Is there a strategy that beats 4D?
No. It’s a number draw. Use bankroll discipline, not “systems,” to control the experience.

Big or Small—how do I choose?

  • Big = more tiers (better chance to hit something), lower top prize.

  • Small = fewer tiers, higher top-tier potential. Match it to your goals.

Straight vs iBet?

  • Straight if you’re okay with exact order risk for higher per-unit payout.

  • iBet if you want order flexibility; expect proportionally smaller returns when you hit.

Are birthdays/car plates luckier?
They’re more popular, not luckier. Popular numbers can be crowded; that matters only if your operator shares pools. Play what you enjoy and can afford.

How to Bet Responsible play & legality

  • How to Bet from licensed, legal outlets only.

  • Check your country/state rules on online purchase, Special Draws, and prize claims.

  • Set limits, don’t borrow to bet, and seek help if gambling stops being fun.
