There is some specific vocabulary associated with the popular game of Kolkata Fatafat. It is rather difficult for the beginner to understand all of these terms since most of them do not make any sense at the first glance: Baji, Patti, Jodi, single, Ghosh Babu, etc. This article is dedicated to the vocabulary that newbies usually deal with while becoming professional players. All of these terms are used in every chart and every update on kolkataff.net.
Baji (or Bazi)
Baji is just the Bengali word that means “round” or “session”. Each Baji stands for one single session of playing Kolkata Fatafat, during which the result is announced. There are 8 Bajis from Monday till Saturday and 4 Bajis on Sunday. If someone tells you “wait for 3rd Baji result”, this means that you should wait for the third round of the day, which starts at 1:30 pm.
Patti
Patti is a three-digit number officially announced as the result of each Baji. This number is written before the slash in every chart block. The valid Pattis are included in the list of 220 combinations, that is why “220 Patti” is the popular phrase. Patti is the “mother” of the number, the number which gave birth to the single digit result.
Single or Single Digit
Single digit is the final 0-9 number written after the slash in each Baji block. This is the number you should bet on because it is much easier to guess the number than the whole Patti. However, the choice of this single is not random at all; this number is calculated using the formula of digit sum.
Jodi
Jodi means “pair” in English, “Aует” in Russian, Hindi and Bengali. In Kolkata FF this is the name of a two-digit combination of the digits ranging from 0 to 9. Jodi bets are preferable by the players who like to play between the single digit and Patti. This is the Matka term, though it is used in Kolkata FF forums too.
Single Patti, Double Patti and Triple Patti
Those three terms are just the subcategories of Patti:
- Single Patti: all three digits are different (for example, 245, 890, 137).
- Double Patti: two of the three digits are the same (112, 335, 668).
- Triple Patti: all three digits are the same (111, 555, 999).
Triple Patti appears very rarely and is paid off with the maximum payouts.
Ghosh Babu
Actually, this is not the name of anyone but just a nickname used by numerous resources that offer tips for Kolkata FF. Many people try to find Ghosh Babu tips thinking that this is the tip of a certain expert. In reality, this is the brand-like nickname used by many tipsters. It should be noted that the tips offered by unknown resources cannot be considered as official.
Hot Number and Cold Number
- Hot number: it is a digit or Patti that occurred many times recently in Bajis.
- Cold number: it is a digit or Patti that has not occurred for a long period.
Many people follow the hot numbers hoping that they will appear again and others follow the cold numbers thinking that they are due. However, this theory has nothing to do with mathematics.
Chart or Old Result
Chart is the history of Baji results arranged by dates in rows. Some newbies are often confused with the terms “chart” and “prediction”. Actually, the chart is just a record. The daily updated chart is available on kolkataff.net.
Result Time and XX Block
Result time is the definite schedule at which the result of each Baji is announced. Sometimes you can see “XX” instead of the numbers in the chart block. It means that this Baji result has not been announced yet or cancelled.
Final Words
It may seem that understanding the Kolkata FF vocabulary is half of the game for the new player. The knowledge of such terms as Baji, Patti, Single, Jodi, Ghosh Babu and others helps you to understand the chart on kolkataff.net. However, there is one thing that should be mentioned here: Kolkata Fatafat is the luck-based game and understanding of the vocabulary does not increase your chances to win. Enjoy this game!
