For readers in the Philippines, remember that this is just a free game. If you want to play with real money later, you must check with the actual operator for details on PHP deposits, GCash, Maya, and PAGCOR regulation.
Virtual Coin Wallet Mechanics
The demo utilizes a virtual wallet that persists in your browser's localStorage. This wallet tracks your balance and fractional carry across page reloads.
- Initial Balance: The wallet starts with exactly 1000 play coins.
- Manual Restoration: When the balance falls below 10 coins while idle, you can manually set the balance back to exactly 1000. This action resets the balance; it does not add coins to a running total.
- Fractional Carry: If a settlement leaves a remainder after deducting the floor of the gross return, that fractional amount persists in local storage. Refilling the balance does not clear this carry.
What Philippine Players Should Check
Since this is a demo, you are not spending Philippine pesos (PHP) here. However, if you decide to switch to a real-money version of TBBB, you need to verify how the operator handles local transactions. Always confirm if the site accepts GCash or Maya, as these are the most common e-wallets in the Philippines. You should also check if the operator holds a valid license from PAGCOR, the national regulator, to ensure your funds are safe.
- Check if the operator supports PHP for easier tracking.
- Verify GCash and Maya deposit limits and fees.
- Confirm PAGCOR licensing status on their official site.
- Read the terms for withdrawals to avoid surprises.
No External Deposits or Withdrawals
Unlike real-money gaming sites, this demo does not support external financial transactions. The following are not available:
- No deposit or withdrawal buttons.
- No verification (KYC) processes.
- No exchangeable winnings; virtual coins have no cash value.
- No network-synchronised account; balance is local to your browser.
When you reload the page, any captured stake remains deducted. Unfinished rounds end without refund or continuation. Controls reset to the default stake of 20 coins.
Stakes and Mode Selection
Before starting a round in Pair Gcd Square Mines, you select your stake and hazard count. These settings are locked once a round is active.
- Stakes: Available options are 10, 20, 50, or 100 play coins. The default is 20.
- Hazards: You must choose 3, 4, or 5 hazards before the round begins. This determines the support count and probability distribution.
Payout and Settlement Rules
Payouts are calculated based on exact posterior probabilities and gross returns. The settlement process follows these rules:
- Initial Value: The quoted initial value is 97% of the captured stake.
- Gross Calculation: Each safe reveal divides the current gross value by its exact posterior safe probability.
- Settlement: At the end of a round, the floor of the gross return plus stored fractional carry is credited. The remainder persists as fractional carry.
Zero-return rounds leave the fractional carry unchanged. You can only collect after at least one safe reveal has occurred.
Stopping Rules and Auto-Bank
The demo enforces specific stopping conditions based on gross returns relative to the stake.
- Manual Collect: You may collect after at least one safe reveal.
- Auto-Bank: The system automatically banks only when no eligible uncertain choice remains.
- Disabled Choices: Individual choices with a gross return above 1000× the stake are disabled. Equality (exactly 1000×) is allowed.

Frequently asked questions
Can I deposit real money or withdraw winnings from this demo?
No. This is a virtual-coin demo with no cashier. There are no external payment methods, deposits, withdrawals, or exchangeable cash value for the virtual coins.
What happens to my balance if I refresh the page during a round?
The captured stake remains deducted. The unfinished round ends without refund, payout, or continuation. Your balance persists, but the round state does not resume.
How do I refill my virtual coins?
You can manually restore your balance to exactly 1000 coins when it falls below 10 coins while idle. This sets the balance; it does not add coins to a running total or clear fractional carry.
Can I win real money in this TBBB demo?
No. This is a free simulation using virtual coins. You cannot withdraw winnings to your GCash or Maya account because there is no real cash involved.
How do I check if TBBB accepts Philippine payment methods?
Visit the official TBBB website (not this demo page) and look for the 'Cashier' or 'Banking' section. Look for logos of GCash, Maya, or bank transfers, and check the minimum deposit amounts in PHP.
