What is Teen Patti?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Teen Patti is an incredibly popular card game, most commonly played in India and Indian communities around the world. The game itself is thought to have its origins in Europe, as it strikes a strong resemblance to the British game \u201cThree Card Brag\u201d.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although there is no confirmed record of when Teen Patti came to prominence in India, it is assumed that Three Card Brag was introduced by the British when the first landed in the country in the early 17th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teen Patti is also referred to as \u201cIndian Poker\u201d, as traditional poker has had a clear influence on the Indian variant.

During Diwali, Shiva is even believed bless those who gamble on Teen Patti!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A month before the Hindu festival of Janmashtami, people also celebrate by playing Teen Patti \u2013 although for slightly different reasons. Those who celebrate Janmashtami, do so in tribute of Lord Krishna\u2019s birthday. It is believed that Krishna rid India <\/a>of taboos such as gambling and alcohol, except for during certain periods in the calendar. As a tribute to Krishna, people will gamble and play Teen Patti throughout the month prior to his birthday. Once the festival of Janmashtami begins, the gambling will stop, and \u201cnormal\u201d society resume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Play Teen Patti<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You are also going to need to bring a serious amount of bluster; an inherent talent for bluffing is almost a pre-requisite!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
