Sixdraw OverviewSixdraw is a lottery-style betting game from Inbet Games. Inbet’s own game catalogue lists it as a “betting” title dated 30 January 2024; SlotCatalog gives 6 March 2024. There are no reels at all. Instead, 35 balls are drawn from a drum of 48, and you bet on which numbers come out and how early. SlotCatalog lists stakes from 0.10 to 50; no RTP or maximum win is published for the game. The Ticket: Six Numbers From 48The betting screen shows all 48 numbers in eight coloured columns – red, green, blue, purple, brown, yellow, orange and black – with six numbers in each colour. A ticket is a selection of six numbers. You can pick them by hand or press Random selection, set the stake with the Bet button and add the ticket to the coupon. In our round the coupon held five tickets at 1.00 each, for a total bet of 5.00; a Repeat bets button re-enters the previous coupon. How the Payout Board WorksDuring the draw, the edges of the screen show a ladder of prizes linked to the order of the balls. The first five balls pay nothing on their own; from the sixth ball onwards each position has its own multiplier. A ticket wins when all six of its numbers have been drawn, and the prize is set by the ball that completes it:
Two positions on the board carry a clover symbol, the 200x and the 17x spot. The game does not explain it on the screenshots, so we can only point it out. What Our Round ShowedWe played round #515352 with the five-ticket coupon. The first five balls were 28, 27, 43, 4 and 34; the drum then continued, with a large ball in the middle of the screen announcing each number (4, then 11 and so on). The coupon finished with a WIN of 12.00 – 2.4x the 5.00 total bet – and the balance shows it cleanly: 1,000 − 5 + 12 = 1,007. Statistics on ScreenThe bottom bar tracks the draw as it happens: the sum of the first five balls (136 in our round), the odd/even split of all drawn balls (19 odd to 16 even at the end) and a row of coloured markers for the dropped balls. A timer at the top counts the round, which is split into a Betting phase and a Playing phase. Special BetsBesides the six-number tickets, a Special Bets menu offers simpler wagers on the draw itself:
These behave like the side bets in a keno or lottery draw: quicker to settle and closer to even-money odds than a full ticket. The Odds Behind the LadderThe ladder makes more sense once you look at the maths of the draw, which is simple combinatorics rather than a published figure. There are 12,271,512 possible six-number tickets from 48 balls. The chance that all six of your numbers come out in the first six balls – the 10,000x prize – is therefore 1 in 12,271,512. By the 15th ball the chance that your ticket is complete rises to about 1 in 2,450, by the 25th ball to roughly 1 in 69, and by the 35th and final paying ball to about 13.2%, or roughly 1 in 7.6. In other words, around seven tickets out of eight are not completed at all within the 35 balls, and most of the ones that are completed finish in the low-paying section of the ladder. That is why a five-ticket coupon like ours can come back with a modest 2.4x: the big multipliers are there, but they sit at the very top of a steep curve. It is the same trade-off as in a slot with a huge maximum win – except that here you can see it written on the board. Coupon and HistoryThe right-hand panel has two tabs. Coupon lists every ticket with its six numbers, stake and win, and History keeps the results of earlier rounds. Because the draw runs in rounds with a countdown, you can add tickets while one round is being drawn and play them in the next. Who It Is ForSixdraw is for players who enjoy lottery draws and keno more than slots. The appeal is the long ladder: a ticket completed early can pay thousands of times the stake, while most tickets finish late on the board or not at all.
