How to Play Teen Patti & Game Rules
If you’ve ever played poker online, you probably have a good idea of how to play Teen Patti. It is played with a standard 52-card deck, and between 3 and 6 players are generally seated at the table.
The online game starts with the dealer and runs counterclockwise. All players must place an Ante bet. This is added to the “boot” and grows with each round to add to the total prize.
Here are the basic rules of the game:
With the Ante bet out of the way, each player will receive 3 face-down cards.
Players must look at their hands and decide whether to fold, call, or raise their current stake. Those with unwanted cards will fold.
If you decide to keep playing, place your bet, which will match the value of the Ante bet or the bet of the previous player.
The dealer will now check their hand. If they do not meet the staying requirements (this can change based on the version you’re playing), the dealer must fold and all bets are returned.
If the dealer qualifies to keep playing, all remaining players will reveal their hands.
When the face-down and face-up cards are revealed, the player with the best card values and combinations will win.
Depending on the version of Teen Patti you’re playing, the table limits and values will differ, and there may be Blind Players and Seen Players. This affects whether or not you look at your cards before the first bet and how much you can potentially win.
Teen Patti Payouts Guide
The different cards you’ll find when playing Teen Patti determine the outcome of your hand. Each card has its own ranking. Get a hand with the better ranking, and you’ll be the winner.
Here’s a look at how different hands are ranked based on the cards you’re holding.
Triples - The highest-ranking hand is 3 cards with the same value.
Straight Flush - 3 sequential cards of the same suit and colour.
Straight - 3 sequential cards that are not of the same suit or colour.
Flush - 3 consecutive cards in any order but have the same suit or colour.
Pair - 2 cards of the same value.
High card - The player with the highest card wins. Ace is the highest-ranking card in the deck.
Depending on the game you’re playing, there may also be side bets that can pay out more based on your hand, including 1:1 for a Pair and 100:1 for a Royal Flush.

History of Teen Patti and Why is it So Popular?
Teen Patti has been around for centuries and can be traced back to India and Southeast Asia. Like many Oriental games, including online slots, this card game has become very popular.
One of the reasons this game has become such a hit is because it’s easy to learn. It’s also similar to games like Stake Poker, but is somewhat simpler.
The hands needed to be a winner are much like Poker but there are fewer steps required to have a strong hand. It’s all about the luck of which cards you receive.
How is Teen Patti Different from Other Card Games on Stake.com?
Teen Patti has become a very popular game at Stake.com, but you may be wondering what makes it different to other top table games we host?
While Teen Patti may be quite similar to games like Poker, there are a few important factors that set it apart. Unlike many card games that rely on skill (with a touch of good luck), Teen Patti heavily relies on the luck of the draw.
