Satta Matka, simply known as Matka, is a numbers game popular in India and some arab countries like UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Qatar. The history of Matka spans over 50+ years. Ratan Khatri devised this wonderful game in 1960’s. Three cards used to be drawn from a big pitcher (matka) and numbers are announced. Hence the name “Matka”. The cards are then arranged in Ascending Order (The numbers of such order are called PANA/PATTI)
