Annuity - some lottery games let the winners choose if they want cash pay out or have the payment in installments. Some gambling players opt to receive their winnings yearly so that they will not be able to spend or waste all their money in just one year. This is called the annuity, because the payment is installed annually.

Box Bet or Boxed - this is a way of gambling in which gambling players may still win even if their numbers are not in order of the ones drawn, as long as they match the winning numbers. For example, if a gambling player bets on 356, and the winning combination is 653, the gambling player still wins.

Once purchased, these tickets shall be opened by the gambling players to reveal the combination inside. If it matches the winning numbers, then the gambling player wins a prize.
