If you’re trying to master Teen Patti, the first tool you need is a clear three-card reference — a तीन पत्ती चार्ट that shows hand ranks, probabilities and sensible payout examples. In this guide I combine practical experience, simple math and table-ready reference so you can quickly internalize which hands to value, how often they appear, and what strategies genuinely move the long-term needle.
What is a तीन पत्ती चार्ट and why it matters
A तीन पत्ती चार्ट (three-patti chart) is more than a ranking list — it’s a probability and payout map. It tells you three things at once: the hierarchy of hands (which hand beats which), the likelihood of seeing each hand in a random deal, and typical payout logic used by most tables. Good players internalize this chart so decisions become fast and statistically informed rather than emotional.
When I first learned Teen Patti, I memorized the hand order the hard way: losing to a “trail” (three of a kind) multiple times before understanding how rare it is. After studying the probabilities and using a chart, I reworked my bets and began winning more consistently — not because luck changed, but because my choices began reflecting actual odds.
Hand rankings (the core of any तीन पत्ती चार्ट)
From highest to lowest, the standard Teen Patti hand rankings are:
- Trail (Three of a Kind) — three cards of the same rank (highest).
- Pure Sequence (Straight Flush) — three consecutive cards of the same suit (Ace can be high or low).
- Sequence (Straight) — three consecutive cards, mixed suits.
- Color (Flush) — three cards of the same suit, not consecutive.
- Pair — two cards of the same rank plus a third different card.
- High Card — none of the above; ranked by highest card then next card, etc.
Memorizing this order is the first page of any practical तीन पत्ती चार्ट.
Probability breakdown — how often each hand appears
One of the most valuable sections of a तीन पत्ती चार्ट is the probability column. For three-card hands drawn from a standard 52-card deck (C(52,3) = 22,100 total possible hands), the approximate frequencies are:
- Trail (Three of a Kind): 52 combinations → ~0.235% (about 1 in 425)
- Pure Sequence (Straight Flush): 48 combinations → ~0.217% (about 1 in 460)
- Sequence (Straight): 720 combinations → ~3.26% (about 1 in 31)
- Color (Flush, non-sequence): 1,096 combinations → ~4.96% (about 1 in 20)
- Pair: 3,744 combinations → ~16.94% (about 1 in 6)
- High Card: 16,440 combinations → ~74.43% (about 3 in 4)
These figures show why aggressive play on weak-looking hands often fails: high cards form nearly three quarters of all hands. A practical तीन पत्ती चार्ट highlights these odds next to each hand so you can align bet-sizing with probability.
Common payout structures (examples for your chart)
Online and live tables may vary payouts. Always check house rules. Typical illustrative payouts you might see displayed alongside your तीन पत्ती चार्ट are:
- Trail: 3:1 (sometimes higher on special tables)
- Pure Sequence: 2.5:1
- Sequence: 2:1
- Color (Flush): 1.5:1
- Pair: 1:1 (even money)
Note: Many modern platforms use progressive or side-bet structures that change effective value. Because payouts shift expected value, always cross-check the payout column of any तीन पत्ती चार्ट you rely on.
How to use the तीन पत्ती चार्ट in real time
When you play, keep three habits in mind:
- Compare your hand to the chart’s probabilities. If you have a pair, know you’re in the top ~17% hands and adjust aggression accordingly.
- Adjust for table behavior. A chart is based on odds, not opponent tendencies. If a table is ultra-loose, tighten; if ultra-tight, steal more blinds.
- Consider position. In many Teen Patti variants, acting later gives information advantage — you can convert chart knowledge into precise bluffing or value-bet sizes.
Here’s a simple in-game example: you’re dealt a pair of 7s in early position. The chart tells you pairs are roughly 17% of hands. If the table is passive and there’s a moderately sized pot, a single strong raise can thin the field. But against heavy re-raises from seated players who often see their cards, prefer to moderate — your pair can easily be outdrawn by sequences and trips.
Advanced chart-driven concepts
Once you’ve memorized basic ranks and probabilities, integrate these chart-centric techniques:
- Expected Value Checks: Multiply probability by payout to estimate long-run value before committing — helpful for side bets or variant tables.
- Equity vs Range: Think in ranges, not absolute hands. A pair retains more equity against random ranges than a high card.
- Fold Equity Estimation: Use the chart’s prevalence numbers to judge how often opponents will beat you — a bluff is more credible if you estimate opponents hold hands in the low-probability region.
Building your personalized तीन पत्ती चार्ट
Not every chart fits every player. Here’s how to create a practical, personalized one:
- Start with the standard hand rankings and probabilities (use the numbers above).
- Add your table’s payout numbers — take screenshots of the table rules and paste them next to probabilities.
- Include a quick “action matrix” for each hand type (e.g., Pair: raise 60% of time in early position vs. 80% in late position).
- Update every 50–100 hands as you learn table tendencies. A dynamic chart stays useful; a static chart becomes outdated.
Common mistakes players make with charts — and how to avoid them
Knowing a chart doesn’t guarantee wins. Players often make these errors:
- Overvaluing rare hands: Trail and pure sequence are dramatic but rare. Avoid overcommitting every time you see them in practice — the odds still matter.
- Ignoring payouts: A hand that looks good may be poor once payout structure is considered.
- Not adapting to opponents: Charts are baseline truth, but live reads often override raw numbers.
To avoid these traps, pair your चार्ट knowledge with observation: note who bluffs, who folds to pressure, and who chases sequences excessively.
Resources and next steps
If you want a printable reference or interactive tool, look for reliable sites that provide a downloadable तीन पत्ती चार्ट and calculators. I recommend cross-referencing any chart with the specific variant rules you play (blind structure, side-bets, and payout tiers change everything). For a frequently updated online reference, check platforms that specialize in Teen Patti strategy and rule documentation.
Finally, treat the तीन पत्ती चार्ट as a living resource: it should inform your habits, not dictate them. Combine it with disciplined bankroll management, patient observation, and regular review of your hands to improve steadily.
About the author
I’ve studied and played Teen Patti for many years in both casual and competitive online settings. I approach the game as a blend of math, psychology and situational judgment — the तीन पत्ती चार्ट gives the math and structure; practice builds the judgment. If you’d like a printable version of the chart or a short practice drill sheet, I can prepare one tailored to the specific variant you play.
