BruceMangosteen Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Not just villages. Cities like Pattaya also run a numbers game underground using the lottery results. It's big business.

Members asked last time but you never answered (that I know of). What is the meaning of "00" ? Thanks, and God Bless You and 77. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phuketboy Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 So many people are doing this. Why is this news and why are these 3 people special? You will probably find that 1 in 10 people are involved in this numbers game either running it or buying numbers, maybe more. They don't even hide it. I could go and buy numbers right now off about a dozen people if I really wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
