Teen Patti compares three private cards over a shared pot. Blind and seen describe whether a player has viewed those cards; a show compares surviving hands, while folding abandons the current hand.
Three-Card Rules and Table Actions
Teen Patti deals three private cards to each player. In the common version, participants compete over a shared pot and use the table’s permitted betting actions. A player may continue without looking at the cards, usually called blind, or view them and become seen. Folding gives up that hand’s claim to the pot. A show compares surviving hands under the table rules.
Hand quality and betting state are different. Looking at the cards reveals a hand but does not improve it; continuing blind conceals information from the player as well as opponents. The amount a seen player may need to put into the pot can differ from the blind amount. Rules for a show or sideshow also depend on the implementation. Teen Patti is therefore not simply three-card blackjack: card totals are not added toward 21.
