Teen Patti Hand Rankings Cheat Sheet

Q: What beats what in Teen Patti?

From highest to lowest: Trail (three of a kind), Pure Sequence, Sequence, Color, Pair, then High Card. See the table on this page for the full order and tie-breaks.

Q: What happens if two players have the same hand type?

The tie-break rules in the table below apply — generally the higher-ranked cards within that hand type win. If genuinely identical, the pot is typically split, though this can vary by table rules.

Ranking table (highest to lowest)

Rank	Hand	Example	Tie-break
1	Trail / Set	K-K-K	Higher trio rank wins (e.g. Trail of Kings beats Trail of Queens)
2	Pure Sequence	4♥-5♥-6♥	Higher top card of the run wins
3	Sequence / Run	7♠-8♥-9♣	Higher top card of the run wins
4	Color	2♦-7♦-J♦	Highest card wins, then next-highest, then lowest
5	Pair	9-9-4	Higher pair wins; if pairs match, higher kicker card wins
6	High Card	K-9-4	Highest card wins, then next-highest, then lowest

Notes on suits

Teen Patti hand rankings do not use suit rank (unlike some poker variants) — suits only matter for determining whether a hand is a Pure Sequence or Color, not for breaking ties between two hands of the same type and rank.

A / 2 / 3 sequences

A-2-3 is typically the lowest valid sequence, and A-K-Q the highest — but always confirm the specific table or app’s own rule, since some variants treat the Ace differently.

Quick memory aid

From strongest to weakest: Trail → Pure Sequence → Sequence → Color → Pair → High Card. A useful way to remember the order is that each rank down the list requires less matching structure between your three cards.
