Play responsibly
Responsible gaming — the rules we set ourselves
3 patti is a social game that is easy to overspend on. These deposit limits, session timers and self-exclusion habits are what keep teen patti real-money play under control.
Our practical rules
- 18+ only. Never play if you are under 18.
- Set a deposit limit before you sit down, and keep to it.
- Never play with borrowed money — not from friends, not from credit.
- Stop after a losing session. Chasing a bad hand is the fastest route to a bigger loss.
- Play the free tables to learn the variants before you commit real money.
Is it legal where you live?
Teen patti is classified as a game of skill in most Indian states, but real-money play is restricted in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Assam, Sikkim, Odisha and Nagaland, and the rules change. Check the current position in your state before you deposit.
Need help? If gambling is affecting your finances, studies or relationships, contact a support service in your country. Asking for help early is the strongest move in the game.
Where to get support
- The deposit limit and time alert settings inside the app — set both before your first cash hand.
- Tele-MANAS, the Indian government's national mental health helpline, on 14416 or 1-800-891-4416.
- Your bank's card and UPI controls, which can cap daily spend and block the app entirely.
- A time limit agreed with someone you trust before each session. Real-money card play is entertainment, not a way to earn.
