Andar Bahar Online in India: Full Rules, Variants and Live Tables in ₹
Andar Bahar is about as simple as card games get: one card is turned face up, and you bet on whether its match will land on the Andar (inside) or Bahar (outside) pile. There is no hand to build and nothing to decide once the dealing starts. This page covers Andar Bahar alone: the full rules, the details that change from table to table and how to play it live in rupees at Betroxy. 18+ only.
Step by step
- The dealer shuffles a standard 52-card deck and reveals one card in the centre. This is the joker, also called the game card.
- Players bet on Andar or Bahar before the betting timer runs out.
- Cards are dealt face up, one at a time, alternating between the two piles.
- As soon as a card matches the joker's rank, the round stops. Suit and colour make no difference: if the joker is the 7 of hearts, any 7 settles it.
- Bets on the pile that received the match are paid, and the rest lose.
Which side gets the first card?
Depending on the version, the first card may always go to the same pile, or the choice may depend on the joker, for example its colour. Because the pile dealt first has a fractionally better chance of catching the match, its payout is usually trimmed so the two bets stay balanced. Check the table's rules before you choose a side.
How long a round lasts
Three other cards of the joker's rank are hidden somewhere in the remaining 51, so a match can turn up on the very first card or only after many. A long round does not make a match due on either side.
Side bets
Many live tables let you predict extra details, such as how many cards will be dealt before the match, often grouped into ranges, or features of the joker card itself. These pay more because they are harder to hit, and they generally carry a higher house edge than a plain Andar or Bahar bet.
Variants you will find
- Classic live Andar Bahar from Ezugi and Playtech Live, played to the traditional rules.
- Super Andar Bahar by Evolution Gaming, which keeps the core game but adds its own features and paytable.

अंदर बाहर के नियम: जोकर कार्ड, पहला पत्ता और साइड बेट
अंदर बाहर में डीलर बीच में एक पत्ता खोलता है, जिसे जोकर या गेम कार्ड कहते हैं। आप दांव लगाते हैं कि उसी रैंक का पत्ता पहले अंदर की ओर आएगा या बाहर की ओर। सूट या रंग से कोई फ़र्क नहीं पड़ता, सिर्फ़ रैंक मायने रखती है। पहला पत्ता किस ओर जाएगा, यह टेबल के नियमों पर निर्भर करता है, और उसी हिसाब से उस ओर का भुगतान थोड़ा कम हो सकता है। राउंड पहले पत्ते पर भी ख़त्म हो सकता है। साइड बेट ज़्यादा भुगतान देते हैं, पर उनमें जोखिम भी ज़्यादा होता है। Betroxy पर जमा ₹500 से और निकासी ₹300 से होती है। केवल 18+ के लिए, अपने राज्य के नियम जांचें।
Frequently asked questions
What is the joker card in Andar Bahar?
The joker, also called the game card, is the single card the dealer turns face up at the start of each round. It sets the target rank, and the round ends when another card of that rank is dealt to Andar or Bahar. It has nothing to do with the joker cards found in some packs.
Do suits matter in Andar Bahar?
Not for the main bet. Only the rank counts, so if the joker is the queen of spades, the first queen of any suit to appear ends the round. Some side bets can involve the joker's suit or colour, depending on the table, so check the paytable if you want to play those.
Which side gets the first card in Andar Bahar?
It depends on the version. Some tables always deal the first card to the same side, while traditional rules can decide it from the joker card. The side that receives the first card has a slightly higher chance of the match, so its payout is often adjusted. The table rules show which applies.
What is Super Andar Bahar?
Super Andar Bahar is Evolution Gaming's version of the game, available live at Betroxy. The core idea is unchanged: you bet on whether the matching card lands on Andar or Bahar. It adds extra features and its own paytable, so open the game's help screen to see exactly how payouts work before betting.
How many cards can be dealt in one Andar Bahar round?
Anything from one to several dozen. Three cards of the joker's rank remain in the deck, and the round ends at the first one dealt. Because the deck is shuffled, there is no way to know in advance how long a round will last, and earlier rounds do not change the odds of the next.
What do I need to play Andar Bahar for real money?
You need to be 18 or over, have a verified Betroxy account and deposit at least ₹500 by UPI, IMPS or crypto. All stakes are in rupees. Winnings can be withdrawn from ₹300 with no Betroxy fees, usually within 5 to 10 minutes once KYC is complete. Check the rules in your state first.
