How satta matka works

New to satta matka and not sure what people mean by jodi, patti or sangam? This page explains the game's building blocks the way a regular would explain them to a friend. It's here so you can read charts and results properly. It isn't an invitation to bet, and we don't take bets.

The draw

Every market declares an open result and, usually two hours later, a close result. For each one, three digits come out and are written in a fixed order where 0 counts as the highest digit. That three-digit number is the panna (also called patti or panel). Only 220 such pannas are possible.

Ank

Add the three digits of the panna and keep the last digit. That's the ank, also called single. Panna 589 adds to 22, so the ank is 2. Every panna gives exactly one ank from 0 to 9.

Jodi

The open ank and the close ank side by side make the jodi. Open 2 and close 7 make jodi 27. There are 100 jodis, from 00 to 99, and this is the number the jodi chart records.

Single, double and triple patti

A panna with three different digits, like 138, is a single patti (SP). One with a repeated digit, like 336, is a double patti (DP). All three the same, like 777, is a triple patti (TP). There are 120 single, 90 double and 10 triple pannas.

Half sangam and full sangam

A half sangam pairs an ank with a panna, for example open ank 2 with close panna 367. A full sangam pairs the open panna with the close panna, 589 with 367. These are the rarest combinations, which is exactly why they get talked about.

Reading the result line

Put it together and you get the familiar format: open panna, jodi, close panna. So 589-27-367 means open panna 589, jodi 27, close panna 367. While the close is still pending, it shows as 589-2*-***.

Before anything else

Betting on matka is illegal in most of India, and it can do real damage to people's finances and families. If you follow the game, follow it for the numbers and the charts, and keep your money out of it.
