Payouts: change these to the figures your own app shows

A payout counts your stake back, so even money is 2×. The shared digit is the one a colour has in common with violet: 5 for green, 0 for red.

Big pays on: 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 at 2×.

Green digits are 1, 3, 7 and 9. Red digits are 2, 4, 6 and 8. Violet digits are 0 and 5: 0 is also red and 5 is also green. Big is 5 to 9 and small is 0 to 4. A solid outline marks a digit where this bet returns more than the stake.

Digits, colours, payouts and the 2% fee are Win Go-style rounds as commonly described. We could not read any platform’s own rules, so these are illustrations: replace them with the figures your own app shows.

Betting ₹100 on big every minute means 60 rounds in 1 hour and ₹6,000 staked; at 2× and a 2% fee the game keeps about 2.0% of each stake, so the session costs about ₹120 on average, and 45% of such sessions finish ahead. Across the six bets the game keeps between 2.0% (big or small) and 11.8% (violet or one number) of each stake.

Practise with pretend money

Practice rounds draw a digit from 0 to 9 with random numbers from your browser and settle the bet chosen above. There is no money in it, and it is not any app’s game: it shows how a session tends to run.

Many apps carry a big small game, and playing it online there means staking money. This page lets you play the same kind of round for free with a pretend balance, and shows what a 2% fee does to a bet that looks like a coin toss.

As commonly described, big covers the digits 5 to 9 and small covers 0 to 4. A big bet of ₹100 pays out on 50% of rounds, yet the game keeps 2.0% of each stake, so 60 rounds cost about ₹120 on average. About 45% of such hours end ahead, and 5 losing rounds in a row is a typical longest run.

Change the bet, the stake or the round length above and every number updates. Use the payouts your own app shows.

Common questions

If big and small each win half the time, why does the game still come out ahead?

Because of the fee. A bet that pays double on half the rounds would break even on its own, but a fee taken from each stake first leaves the game with a small share of every bet. In the example on this page that share is the exact figure shown above.

Does practising here show how a real app’s round works?

Only in a general way. The practice mode uses the digit map, payouts and fee on this page, which are an illustration of how such rounds are commonly described. A real app’s rules sit behind its account, and we cannot see inside any app.

What if my app has a rule where neither side wins?

Then each side wins less than half the time and the cost is higher than the calculator shows. Check your app’s rules for any digit, tie or special result that counts against both sides, and lower the payout or chance to match.

Is anything I type on this page stored or uploaded?

No. The page works everything out in your browser and nothing you enter leaves your phone. If you copy a link to a result, the numbers travel after the # sign in the address, which a website never receives.

How can I check the payouts my own app uses?

Look for a rules or how-to-play screen in the game and note what each bet pays and any fee on the stake. If the screens give no payouts at all, no calculator can work out what the game costs, and that is worth knowing before you play.
