Understanding 4D Prize Structures
Big vs Small Bets
Big Bet covers all 23 prize categories (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 10 Special, 10 Consolation) with lower individual payouts.
Small Bet covers only the top 3 prizes (1st, 2nd, 3rd) with higher individual payouts but no Special or Consolation prizes.
Box/Permutation Bets
Box bets (also called mBox, iBox, or iPerm depending on operator) allow you to win if ANY permutation of your chosen digits appears. This dramatically increases your chances of winning!
Permutation Types:
- 24 Permutations (ABCD) - All 4 digits are different. Example: 1234 covers all arrangements from 1234 to 4321
- 12 Permutations (AABC) - 1 pair of same digits. Example: 1123 has 12 unique arrangements
- 6 Permutations (AABB) - 2 pairs of same digits. Example: 1122 has 6 unique arrangements
- 4 Permutations (AAAB) - 3 of the same digit. Example: 1112 has only 4 unique arrangements
Example: If you bet RM1 on Box/mBox/iBox/iPerm with 24 permutations on number 1234, you pay RM24 total (RM1 × 24). If ANY arrangement of 1234 wins (like 4321, 2413, etc.), you win the Box prize × 24 permutations!
4A Bet
4A is a special bet type that pays a fixed prize of RM 800 (per RM1 bet) if your number appears in ANY prize category - whether it's 1st Prize, 2nd Prize, 3rd Prize, Special, or Consolation.
4A Benefits:
- Fixed Prize: Always win RM 800 per RM1 bet, regardless of which prize category your number appears in
- Better Coverage: Your number wins if it appears in any of the 23 prize positions
- Simple: No need to choose between Big or Small, or select a specific prize category
- Balanced Odds: Lower payout than top prizes, but covers all winning categories
Example: If you bet RM5 on 4A for number 1234, and 1234 appears anywhere (1st Prize, Special, or Consolation), you win RM 4,000 (RM 800 × 5).

Tips for Maximizing Your Strategy
- Consider Box bets for flexible numbers: If you believe certain digits will appear but aren't sure of the order, Box bets give you coverage across all permutations.
- Small bets for higher payouts: If you're confident your number will hit the top 3, Small bets offer better returns per Ringgit.
- Big bets for better odds: With 23 winning categories, Big bets give you more chances to win something.
- 4A for balanced coverage: 4A offers a middle ground - better prize than most Big bet categories, and covers all 23 prize positions.
- Calculate your ROI: Use this calculator to understand the relationship between bet cost and potential return, especially for Box bets with multiple permutations.
- Budget wisely: Box bets with 24 permutations cost 24× your base bet. Make sure you understand the total cost before placing your bet.
