How to play Teen Patti

1Play chips only, never real money. Everyone starts with 1000 chips. Each hand, everyone puts a boot of 10 chips in the pot and gets three cards face down.
2Best hands first: a trail (three of a kind), a pure sequence (three in a row in one suit), a sequence (three in a row), a color (three of one suit), a pair, then high card. Aces are high, A-K-Q is the top run and A-2-3 the next. Equal hands compare their highest cards.
3You may play blind, without looking. A blind player bets the current stake, which starts at 10. Once you see your cards (on your turn, whenever you like) you bet double the stake. That bet is called chaal.
4On your turn, stay in by betting, raise (double the stake, up to 160 for blind players), or pack and give up the hand. If you can’t afford to stay in, you must pack.
5Side show: once you’ve seen your cards, you may pay your bet and ask the seen player who bet just before you to compare hands. If they agree, the game compares them for you and the lower hand packs (on a tie, the one who asked). They may refuse.
6When only two are left, either may pay their bet to call a show: both hands go face up and the better wins the pot (on a tie, the one who asked loses). If the pot reaches 1280, everyone still in shows and the best hand wins.
7The game lasts 10 hands. The most chips at the end wins. A player who can’t pay the boot is out.
