What Andar Bahar Is
Andar Bahar is a traditional South Asian card game found in many Pakistan-facing 3 Patti apps. Play centers on a face-up middle card. The dealer then deals cards to the Andar and Bahar sides until one side produces a matching rank.
It is easier to learn than Teen Patti because there is no multi-street betting against other players. That also means the game is mostly chance, paced by rapid rounds.
Basic Dealing Rules
- Place a main bet on Andar or Bahar before dealing starts.
- A middle (reference) card is revealed.
- Cards are dealt alternately to Andar and Bahar.
- The first side to match the middle card rank wins the main bet.
- Check the app paytable for commission, first-card rules, and side bets.
Some apps highlight the first dealt card with a special payout. Those extras change expected value — read the help screen instead of assuming every lobby uses the same numbers.
Odds and Risk Notes
Main Andar/Bahar bets are designed to be approachable, but the house still keeps an edge. Side bets with larger advertised payouts usually hit less often. Fast dealing can make losses feel small per round while the session total grows.
Common App Placement
Andar Bahar is frequently listed next to Teen Patti, 7 Up Down, and Dragon Tiger in Card Khaadi, Bounty Clash, Lucky Jackpot, and similar halls. Exact menus differ by build.
