Using Propick as a Betting Option

Sportstake 13 can also be played by using Propick. This system function supports the player in selecting 13 outcomes. The lottery processing system produces a pre-defined Multi-Play bet with so-called weighted outcomes on your behalf.

To use this system, pick the board you wish to play (4, 8, 16, and so forth). You will see that the Propick selections appear in a green box on the bet slip.

Ask the lottery retailer about Propick.

🏆 How to Win in Sportstake 13

If you match 13, 12, 11 or 10 outcomes, you will win a share of the prize pool, according to specified divisions.

The prizes are divided as follows:

• Prize Division 1: You need to match all 13 outcomes from the Fixture List
• Prize Division 2: You need to match 12 outcomes from the Fixture List
• Prize Division 3: You need to match 11 outcomes from the Fixture List
• Prize Division 4: You need to match 10 outcomes from the Fixture List

The prize pools are divided as follows:

• If there are no winners in Division 1, the prize pool will be rolled over to the next draw’s corresponding division.
• If there are no winners in Division 2, the prize pool rolls down to the lower divisions. The prize will be split equally – ie. half to Division 3 and half to Division 4.
• If there are no winners in Division 3, the prize pool will be rolled down to Division 4.
• If there are no winners in Division 2 – 4, the prize pool will be rolled over to the next draw’s Division 1.
• Prizes are rounded off to the nearest 10c.
