What is a "pull tab"?
A pull tab is a type of instant-win game, often found in lotteries or as part of a promotional event. It consists of a ticket with hidden symbols or numbers, which are revealed by pulling back a tab or scratching off a cover. The player then checks if the revealed symbols or numbers match a winning combination. Pull tabs are similar to scratchcards but typically involve physically pulling a tab to reveal the outcome. These games are quick and simple, offering the possibility of an immediate payout based on the revealed results.
Examples
I bought a pull tab at the gas station, hoping for a quick win.
She scratched off the cover of the pull tab and realized she had won the jackpot.
