Three-card brag

src: i.ytimg.com

The three card card is a 16th-century English card game, and the UK's national representative of a gambling game that is racing or "bluffing". Brag is a direct descendant of the game Elizabethan Primero and one of several poker ancestors, varying only in the style of betting and hand ranking.

The variant of this game is very popular in Trinidad, India, Bangladesh, and Nepal, where it is known as "faras" and teen patti (literally 'three cards' in Hindi), played with many local variations. At large gatherings and especially during festivals, this is a game of choice as many people with different skills can play together and have fun. It is also a very popular game amongst the stage performers of the UK, who usually gather at larger exhibitions and play for quite high bets.

Rules

Everyone is antes, and each player handled three closed cards. There is one betting round, with action starting from the left of the dealer. Each player has the option to bet or fold. If there is a prior bet, the player must contribute at least more to the pot. (Unlike ordinary poker bets, previous player money contributes to the pot is ignored.) The bet continues until there are only two players left, at which point a good player can double the previous bet to "see" his opponent. At this point, both hands are revealed, and the player with the better hand takes the whole pot. If there is a tie, the player who sees the defeat.

For example, with four players A, B, C and D, this situation could happen: Player A bets 2 chips, B folds, C 2 chip bets and chip D bet 2. To survive, A must bet 2 other chips (at least).

Variations

• Four cards boast: Players are dealt four cards, and then have to choose the cards to be removed (place at the bottom of the deck) to create the best combination. The game is then played in the same way as a three-card attack.
• Seven-card brag: Seven cards are dealt, players must choose three cards to play from their hands, or make two hands, with only winning successfully from both hands winning pot.
• Nine cards: Nine cards are dealt, players sort these into three sets. Four antes are played, one for each set, and one main pot. Each set is then played, usually without further bets. The winner of each set takes one lot of antes; if a player wins all three sets they receive the main pot as well, otherwise keep it for the next hand. Players should always play the next best available set they have made. Often a player might make two good sets and a bad third (eg, prial, straight, ten-high), so players who do not think they will be able to win all three will order their hands to leave themselves with a strong third set to protect the main pot.
• Arrogance of thirteen cards: Thirteen cards are dealt, from which players must choose three cards to play. Other variations involve making four hands (or most likely above a certain standard) of thirteen cards. Four types can also be played, and are usually rewarded at an additional cost to be paid by other players, regardless of any original stock. The player then shows the best hands respectively, then the second best hand, etc., with each winning hand scoring the points or points of the player. The score is stored on the cribbage board, and usually a sprint of 10 or more holes, with one point printed for each victory, or played along a length, or path, board, with 4 points awarded to the best of the highest hand, 3 points to the second highest best hand , etc. Players are not on board at the moment a person wins may have to pay double. Victory is a fixed pre-arranged amount of each loser to the winner, or paid in proportion to how far behind the winners they complete. Any player who won all four of his hands in any round was said to have fallen, and automatically won the entire game. In some areas, this game is known as 'Crash'.
• Crude bastards: Three cards are shared to each player, and three face-to-face communal cards are shared (in some versions only two are facing up, one facing down). Players take turns exchanging one or all (but not two) of their cards for one or all of the communal cards. Play on and up until one player 'sticks', or 'knocks', which means that they are happy with their hands. All the remaining players then exchange one last time before the hand is compared. The player with the lowest hand out, or lose his life.

The name can come from some rules that make players feel like cursing. Knocking the first round is forbidden, forcing anyone who deals with a good hand to destroy it, knocking is not allowed directly after exchange, instead of exchange, that is you have to make a good hand, and then wait for next turn to keep. Players can not exchange two cards at once, may prevent direct accumulation from good hands, with cards needed to complete the hand may be taken by another player before the next opportunity. This is known as Stop the Bus

• Fifteen Brag cards: The associated variant that usually does not gamble, is played as a family game. Each player is distributed fifteen cards, from which they make five tricks of three cards. Each player should put their tricks in the first, highest order. The winner is the one who wins the most tricks. This variant has a much higher tendency than a more powerful trick, due to additional cards.

Some of these rules can also lead to games, especially head-ups, being tactical, with players avoiding making their best hand until their hands are forced into the last exchange with other players clinging, risking that cards that equip their hands are not taken by other players for while.

Hand rank

The rating of the hand, from the best to the worst, is: three types ("prial"), straight flush (flush), straight ("run"), flush, pair, high card. The best prial is 3-3-3, followed by AAA, KKK, etc. In variations that allow four-of-a-kind, 4-4-4-4 is the best 'box', followed by AAAA, KKKK, etc. Running the best flush or run is A-2-3, AKQ, followed by regular KQJ orders, etc. Flushes, pairs, and high cards have identical ratings with poker (aces high).

A pair will beat three quarters of the hand, but must be careful to run and blush the unexpected. Prius and running flushes are very rare but more common in game versions where a hand is selected from more than three cards. Unlike in other poker form, run over the flush. Because of the math involved, three flushes cards are more likely than three straight cards, whereas the opposite is true of the five card hands (poker).

The probability of Queen high or better is 69.59%

Betting blind

Players also have the option to play blind (bet without looking at their cards). The cost of blind players is half of the players open (not blind). However, an open player may not see a blind player. If all other players fold into the blind player, the pot remains, everyone goes back, and the blind player has to keep his hand for the next round (other than the one he's handled). At any time, a player with two blind hands may see one of them and decide whether to keep it or discard it. If he keeps it, he throws away the other hand and is considered open. If he throws it away, he holds the other hand and is still blind. If everyone tucks into a blind player with two hands, he has to throw one without looking. As with many rules in card games, regional differences apply to this rule.

Shuffling

Another unusual Brag habit is that the deck is rarely shaken. Unless the hand is seen and won by the prial, the card from the hand is placed only at the bottom of the deck, and the next hand is handled without dragging.
