The Satta-Matka scenario: How to play it safe?
The game Satta-Matka owns both a famous and an infamous image in the Indian society. Where on one hand, it helped the poor and the penniless to triumph in this cruel money-philic world, on the other hand, it is a big black smirch on the society because it ruined the prosperity of thousands of homes in India.
This is basically a gambling game based on numbers and the guessing power of the partakers participating in the game. “Satta” is a term used in the Hindi language to depict the action of gambling.
One who guesses the forthcoming number correctly takes the cake and wins money prizes almost two-times or three-times the amount he/she placed on his/her bet. The only place where people fail is by not knowing where to draw the line.
One really needs to be vigilant and circumspect while placing their hard-earned money on a bet. Greedy and covetous people, in a bid to make a big and a quick buck, place risky bets in which they stand a chance to lose all the wealth that they earned sedulously.
Still, when it does not vent their monetary needs, they go to great lengths and take any toll to gain restitution for the money that they have lost, by putting their accessories and personal assets at stake.
This has been the primary reason behind the decadence of avaricious people and their livelihood. Also, such people land themselves and their family members in a life-threatening situation, as the bookies of the Satta Matka game have affiliations with the underworld.
In case one incurs a complete debacle on his final bet, and is unable to compensate the lost money to the bookie, he/she and their family lands their life in jeopardy. Such are the ramifications of indulging completely in such immoral activities.
Citing such causes, the British government had issued the Public gambling act in 1867. It is a highly precarious affair to provide room for such activities, which may cost you the life of your near and dear ones.
Therefore, it is advisable to give free rein to such practices just for recreational purposes. Not betting on the maximum amount and saving some money for betting again is one wise decision to keep such miseries at bay.
Founders and begetters of the game
The Satta-Matka game went on a substantial upsurge after coming to light and evolved as the most profitable business. It seemed fascinating to people as a preferable game and a time-passing medium as well. But do you know who was the luminary who brought this game to the cognizance of the people?
Well, let me put your curiosity to cessation by revealing the names of those personalities.
Yes, you heard it right. There are neither one, nor two but three kings of this archaic practice who curated the game in their own styles and those games are still played with that particular style even today.
The first person who invented this game was Kalyanji Bhagat, in whose remembrance the Kalyan Matka game is played. The Kalyan Matka game is played from Monday until Saturday and is the most prominent variety of Satta Matka games among all. It is played with the same fervor and exuberance even today.
The second founder of the king of this game is known to be Ratan Khatri, who gave a totally different touch to the game in the 1960s by introducing the idea of declaring the opening and closing rates of imaginary products.
The third and the last founder of this game is Suresh Bhagat, the son of Kalyanji Bhagat, who gave slight modifications to the rules of the game. But this man met his ill-fate when he was murdered in 2008, and the Matka business experienced a major setback.
All the three kings are said to be the founders and the fathers of the game who went on to become the stalwarts of this business. As they used to lead a furtive lifestyle, not much is known about them.
