What is GoldsBet Andar Bahar?

Andar Bahar (also known as Katti) is a thrilling, pure-odds Indian card game played with a single 52-card deck. The dealer cuts a central "Joker" card, and cards are alternately dealt to the Andar and Bahar spots until a matching card rank appears.

With simple rules, a near 50/50 win probability, and thrilling side bets, Andar Bahar is one of the most popular live dealer games on GoldsBet.

Game rules

How Andar Bahar Rules Work

The game objective is simple: predict which side (Andar or Bahar) will receive the first card matching the rank of the opening Joker card.

Joker Card Cut

The live dealer shuffles and reveals the central Joker card (e.g., a 7 of Hearts).

First Deal Spot

If the Joker card is black (Spade/Club), dealing begins on Andar; if red (Heart/Diamond), dealing starts on Bahar (standard table rule).

Alternating Deal

Cards are dealt face-up one at a time, switching back and forth between the Andar and Bahar sides.

Matching Rank Wins

The first card dealt that matches the exact rank of the Joker card (e.g., any other 7) immediately terminates the round.

Side Bet Settlements

Side bets based on the total number of cards dealt (1-5, 6-10, 11-15, etc.) or card suit settle concurrently.
