If you’re new to playing Swertres (3D Lotto) or still trying to figure out the different play options, you’ve probably come across the term “Rambolito.” Don’t worry — you’re not alone. Many players have the same question:
What exactly is Rambolito in Swertres, and how does it work?
In this post, we’ll explain what Rambolito means, how it works, and how much you can win — in a way that’s easy to understand, even for beginners.
What Is Rambolito?
Rambolito is a play type in Swertres that allows you to win even if the order of your digits is not exact.
In a regular Swertres bet (called Straight), your three numbers must match the drawn combination in the exact order. But with Rambolito, as long as the digits match — even in a different order — you still win.
This gives you a better chance of winning, especially if you’re not confident about the exact sequence.
Types of Rambolito
There are two main types of Rambolito, depending on the digits you choose:
Rambolito 3
- Two of your digits are the same
- Example combinations: 112, 221, 232
- Total possible combinations: 3
- Prize: ₱1,500 per ₱12 bet
Rambolito 6
- All three digits are different
- Example combinations: 123, 456, 890
- Total possible combinations: 6
- Prize: ₱750 per ₱12 bet
The more combinations possible, the lower the prize — but the higher your chances of winning.
How to Play Rambolito
- Go to any authorized PCSO outlet
- Ask for a Swertres bet slip
- Choose Rambolito as your play type
- Pick 3 digits (000–999)
- Place your ₱12 bet
- Wait for the draw and check the result
If the drawn numbers contain your digits in any order, you win based on your Rambolito type.
Example Scenarios
- You bet 132 as a Rambolito
- Winning numbers: 213 → You win (Rambolito 6)
- You bet 455 as a Rambolito
- Winning numbers: 554 → You win (Rambolito 3)
- You bet 777
- Winning numbers: 777 → This is a Straight win only; Rambolito does not apply when all three digits are the same
Rambolito vs Straight: Which Is Better?
| Play Type | Must Match Order? | Winning Chance | Prize (₱12 bet) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Straight | Yes | Lower | ₱4,500 |
| Rambolito 3 | No (2 same digits) | Higher | ₱1,500 |
| Rambolito 6 | No (all different) | Higher | ₱750 |
If you’re looking for higher chances of winning (even with a smaller prize), Rambolito can be a smarter choice — especially for casual players.
Is Rambolito Worth Trying?
Definitely, especially if:
- You’re new to Swertres and still getting used to the game
- You’re unsure of the exact order of your chosen numbers
- You want to increase your chances without increasing your budget
Rambolito is a good way to play safe and still enjoy the thrill of the game.
Rambolito adds a practical and exciting option for Swertres players who want more flexibility when choosing numbers. It’s a great choice if you want better odds of winning without needing to guess the exact order.
