Live Teen Patti for Real Money

Teen Patti rules

The game objective is to get a three-card hand that would be better than the dealer’s one. No matter the provider, any Live Teen Patti game is played with one 52-card deck with no jokers, which are re-shuffled after every round.

At the beginning of the round, the player must place an ante bet and (optionally) one or two side bets. The presenter will then deal three face-up cards to the player and three face-down cards to himself. Note that Live Teen Patti is a common-draw game, meaning every connected player will see the same hand.

Each player then decides whether to start playing with the available three-card hand, in which case they should click “Play 1x”, or discard the and leave the round, in which case they should click “Fold”. The game gives about ten seconds to make a decision, after which the presenter flips over his cards.

If the “Fold” option is chosen, the player ends the round and gives up the ante. Players who are out of play for that round will win nothing but are allowed to watch the round. Ultimately, the hands are compared according to the rules, and whoever has the higher poker hand wins.

Card shuffling and dealing

As is said above, there’s a new deck every new round, and this is possible thanks to an automatic shuffling machine. To the dealer’s left is a transparent shoe containing one deck for the current Teen Patti round. Once the game ends, the presenter removes the partially used deck from the shoe and takes a new deck from the box to his right.

The presenter puts the new deck on the table, removes the top half, and puts it below the lower pile. The deck is then placed into the shoe for a new round. This procedure takes about ten seconds.

When the six cards are extracted from the shoe one by one during each round, face down, they are swiped across the scanner, which scans each card and sends the data to the game software. It converts the received data to a graphical representation of the cards and shows it to players in a dedicated part of the screen.

Bet sizes in Teen Patti

How much you are allowed to bet depends on the game and provider. As a general rule, the ante has the highest maximum limit. At the same time, side bets are pretty low, which is easily accounted for by the fact that side bet payouts can be very significant, especially if the player has Royal Flush on a 3+3 bonus.

The minimum bets are $0.5 or $1 in Teen Patti by Evolution and Ezugi. As in other live games with more than one bet option, max limits are not set in a consistent manner. Some online casinos offer these maximum limits:

Game outcomes and payouts

Below are the payouts for each possible outcome in Teen Patti online live.

So, as you can see in the table, the payouts are pretty low, and they are comparable to even-money bets in live roulette. The best outcome for the player is when the dealer qualifies but ends up with a weaker hand.

Pair Plus side bet in Live Teen Patti

This optional side bet can be placed if you want to add fun to your game session and try to win bigger. The outcome (win or loss) is determined by taking into account your three-card hand. Moreover, you will win according to the paytable (below) even if you fold your hand and the dealer wins the round. If this occurs, you will only lose your main bet. The winning hands and their respective payouts are available below:

To recap, the above hands and payouts are set up on the basis of the player’s hand.

Teen Patti Live game RTP

The RTP value for this game largely depends on the correctness of decisions made by the player. If they fold where it would be better to continue with the bet, they reduce their potential return. So it is advisable to know the best strategy where to give up the ante and where to keep on playing. The optimal RTP for all bet options is outlined below:

• Ante bet: 96.63%
• Pair Plus bet: 95.51%
• 6-Card bet: 91.44%

The player can expect to lose about 8% of the Ante bet without considering the Ante bonus. However, the latter shows a positive expectation at about 4.5%, which makes the total house edge equal to about 3.5%.

Evolution Live Teen Patti

The studio looks like a small parlor decorated in the Oriental style with golden accents and arched doorways. Evolution’s dealers behave professionally, trying to engage their audience regardless of the number of connected players. As of writing this, the stats used to show about 15 to 30 winners in every round, meaning the game isn’t popular with gamblers.

Teen Patti live poker by Evolution has a streamlined user interface available in every game by that company. The buttons at the top right corner give access to the most crucial settings, allowing one to adjust the gameplay accordingly. The UI buttons are as follows:

• Full screen: Clicking it enlarges the window to fill the whole screen.
• Help: Players will find an almost complete guide to the game, including rules, payouts, card rankings, button features, and so on. Players are advised to read the in-game guide to learn the basics.
• Settings: Video adjustment is made automatically if the game software detects a poor connection. Players can change the current video quality manually (there are at least three quality grades), adjust sound volume, and hide other players’ messages in the chat.
• Game history: This cross-table plug-in shows the player’s bets and outcomes on all Evolution games.
• Sound: Enables one to turn sound on/off.
• Switch view: The feature shrinks the active Live Teen Patti video feed while keeping the size of the table unchanged. This can help in case of low connection speeds.
• Chat: Shows/hides the chat.

Main features of Evolution’s Live Teen Patti

This version has a very wide bet range that attracts high rollers who can drop a $10,000 ante on the table. Featuring the two side bets characterised above, the Teen Patti offers standard payouts.

Dealers are not talkative; they only voice card ranks when removing them from the cardholder and announce results. The betting timeframe is about 10 seconds, and each hand is duplicated in a digital form in a separate box, thus keeping players in the loop as for the winning hands. A downside is that the live game does not have stats, making it harder for players to make decisions based on statistical criteria.

The Evolution live platform has a lobby where one can join another game without closing Live Teen Patti, thereby playing two, three or four tables at the same time. However, the provider has only one Teen Patti version.

Ezugi One Day Teen Patti

This is a unique take on the classic three-card Teen Patti because, in this game, you must bet on which hand, Player A or Player B, you think will win. You can make a bet on A or B after each of the three cards is dealt, and—interestingly—the game odds are dynamic, changing per the cards dealt in the round step so far. Payouts are also calculated after each round.

Betting options

The Teen Patti game live features two betting options on Player A/B. The accepted wagers are Back and Lay. The former means putting your bet on something to happen—the player’s win in this case. The “Lay” bet is placed against the player’s winning. By the way, similar kinds of bets are available in online and live craps.

What makes the game more popular than other Teen Patti versions is its high RTP, which reaches 98.36%. Certainly, the player can leverage this RTP value only when adhering to the best strategy. As for the minimum and maximum bet sizes, they are $1 and $2000, respectively.

Playtech Teen Patti Live

The stellar igaming company is widely known for its innovative, one-of-a-kind live shows that are compared to the best products from Evolution, and Teen Patti Live by Playtech is no exception in this regard. You will dive into the diverse opportunities with an unusual approach to the classic Teen Patti rules described above. To begin with, this Teen Patti live online is run by a Hindu dealer speaking Hindi, so guys from that country will have a more immersive and authentic experience while playing for real money.

Second, the game studio is occupied by two other tables that you can see in the background. This is a somewhat dubious solution as it can distract players from the gameplay; on the other hand, it creates an impression of a land-based casino to a certain extent.

Another point is that cards are shuffled manually after each round. An assistant is sitting behind the croupier. Once the round is finished, the croupier puts the used deck in a transparent box and passes it to the assistant, who, in turn, gives the croupier the box where the recently shuffled cards are kept.

The card burning is also different. Before dealing cards at the outset of the round, the croupier takes out the top card from the shoe and places it into the box instead of removing a portion of the deck from the top and placing it under the remaining cards.

Bonuses and payouts

This variation has the same bonuses as other Teen Patti games; however, their scope and payouts are a bit different. For example, Ante Bonus has no cash prizes for Royal Flush, and the ones available have lower odds. This is what a player can expect when winning with Straight and better:

Making up a shortfall in the Ante bonus, Playtech’s Teen Patti poker has an enhanced reward in a Mega Bonus side bet when you have a five-card Royal Flush. Here is the complete breakdown of possible winnings with this optional bet:

RTP in Playtech’s Teen Patti

This variation appears to be more advantageous since it features a higher return to player. Playing with the main bet only, you can count on a 97.74% return, which is about one per cent better than in other game variations. Due to boosted odds in the Mega Bonus side bet, an expected RTP there amounts to 95.28%.

Blind Play

This feature allows players to make the Play bet prior to the croupier’s dealing all cards, thus participating in the game round automatically. So when you put chips of your selected value on the Blind Play spot, your bet amount is copied to the Ante spot. However, this feature is subject to availability as it can be disabled or enabled by the online casino offering this live game.

Golden Bet feature

Golden chips are promo chips that are granted on some table games developed by Playtech. Each golden chip comes with a certain value and can be used for betting in Teen Patti Live like a normal casino chip. Also, note that the Golden Bet must be enabled by the online casino you are playing at. In some situations, this feature is unavailable.
