Andar Bahar odds and house edge
The two sides are close to 50/50 but not equal, which is why many tables pay less on Andar than on Bahar. The figures below are from Wizard of Odds' Andar Bahar page; RTP is 100% minus the house edge.
| Bet | Pays | House edge | RTP |
|---|---|---|---|
| Andar | 0.9 to 1 | 2.15% | 97.85% |
| Andar | 0.85 to 1 | 4.72% | 95.28% |
| Bahar | 1 to 1 | 3.00% | 97.00% |
| Bahar | 0.95 to 1 | 5.43% | 94.57% |
These house edges imply that Andar wins about 51.5% of rounds and Bahar about 48.5%. The table's paytable decides which side is the better bet. A table that pays Bahar only 0.95 to 1 has a house edge more than twice that of one paying Andar 0.9 to 1.
Side bets on the middle card or on how many cards are dealt carry house edges from about 1.9% to 8.5% on Wizard of Odds' list, and most of them are higher than the best main bet.
What is Andar Bahar?
Andar Bahar comes from India and has been played in Bangladesh for many years. Online, it is mostly played at live tables with a real dealer, in a classic version and in versions with side bets. The game needs no skill beyond knowing the paytable.
Andar Bahar rules
The dealer turns over one card, called the joker, which sets the rank to match for the round. You bet on Andar or Bahar. After bets close, the dealer deals cards one at a time, alternating between the Andar and Bahar sides, until a card of the same rank as the joker appears; suit does not matter. The side that receives that card wins (Wizard of Odds). A results board shows which side won earlier rounds; it does not tell you which side wins next.
Live Andar Bahar versions
Three live-dealer studios publish their own Andar Bahar tables. The rules of the main bet are the same, but payouts and side bets differ.
Evolution
Evolution's Super Andar Bahar keeps the classic rules and adds side bets on how many cards are dealt before the match. One to five random multipliers are applied to these side bets each round, up to 4,000x on the "Cards 46–49" bet.
Ezugi
Ezugi's live Andar Bahar adds a range of side bets that can pay up to 120 times the stake.
Pragmatic Play
Pragmatic Play added a live Andar Bahar table to its live casino in October 2021 (Pragmatic Play's launch announcement), with poker-style side bets such as Straight Flush.
What to check before you pick a table
- The payout on each side. Andar at 0.9 to 1 and Bahar at 1 to 1 are the lowest house edges in the table above; lower payouts raise the edge.
- The studio. Tables from Evolution, Ezugi and Pragmatic Play show their rules and limits in the game's help screen.
- The casino's licence and record. A licence that can be checked lowers the risk of unpaid winnings, but an offshore licence gives a player in Bangladesh no legal protection. Our casino reviews list documented red flags.
- Bonus terms. Many bonuses exclude live tables or count them at a low rate; our bonus guide explains wagering.
Strategies and bankroll
No betting pattern changes the house edge. Switching sides after a loss, doubling your stake or following "hot" sides on a results board leaves each round's odds exactly where they were. At a 2.15% house edge you lose about 2 Taka of every 100 Taka staked on average, and fast rounds add up quickly. Set an amount in advance that you can afford to lose and stop when it is gone.

Andar Bahar and the law in Bangladesh
No: online casinos are illegal in Bangladesh
Bangladesh's Parliament passed the Gambling Prevention Act 2026 on 30 June 2026. It took effect on 1 July 2026 and replaced the colonial-era Public Gambling Act 1867. Unlike the old law, it covers online gambling directly, the promotion of gambling, and the use of VPNs and mirror sites to run or hide it. Using a VPN does not make playing legal. Online gambling carries up to 5 years and/or Tk 1 crore (up to 7 years for online betting; reports differ on whether this covers bettors or operators). What changed on 1 July 2026.
| Offence | Maximum penalty |
|---|---|
| Gambling (offline) | 2 years and/or Tk 2 lakh |
| Online gambling (playing) | 5 years and/or Tk 1 crore |
| Online betting (reports differ on whether this covers bettors or operators) | 7 years and/or Tk 5 crore |
| Running a platform, bookmaking, or using VPNs, proxies or mirror sites to run or hide gambling | 7 years and Tk 5 crore |
| Advertising, sponsorship, affiliate or referral promotion | 3 years and/or Tk 50 lakh |
| Organised gambling or laundering via SIMs, MFS or crypto | 10 years and Tk 5 crore |
- Enforcement is active. Between 1 January and 15 September 2026 the CID reported 115 arrests; in 2026 it has charge-sheeted 88 people and asked BTRC to block 763 gambling sites and apps.
- Payments are monitored. Bangladesh Bank has ordered MFS providers to stop gambling transactions, and the BFIU has frozen tens of thousands of bKash, Nagad and other accounts linked to gambling. The authorities have said they are working on stopping holders of frozen accounts from opening new ones with the same NID.
- Offshore licences do not help. A Curaçao, Anjouan or other foreign licence only lets an operator serve countries where gambling is allowed. It gives no legal protection to players in Bangladesh.
- Crypto is not a workaround. Bangladesh Bank has said dealing in cryptocurrency is illegal (2021), and the 2026 Act makes laundering gambling money through crypto a separate offence.
This is a summary for information, not legal advice. Penalties are as reported by the press; "and/or" means a court can impose prison, a fine or both. Sources: TBS News, The Daily Star, UNB; the Act's text on Bangladesh Laws (in Bengali). Full legal guide.
FAQ
Is it Legal to Play Andar Bahar in Bangladesh?
No. Since 1 July 2026 online gambling is a criminal offence in Bangladesh under the Gambling Prevention Act 2026. A casino's foreign licence does not change this. Read our guide to the law.
Which side is better in Andar Bahar, Andar or Bahar?
It depends on the payouts. At the common 0.9 to 1 on Andar and 1 to 1 on Bahar, Andar has the lower house edge (2.15% against 3.00%, per Wizard of Odds). Neither side wins over time.
Can I Register Several Times on the Gaming Platform to Receive a Welcome Bonus for Playing in Andar Bahar?
No. Casinos allow one account per person, and the welcome bonus can be claimed only once. Opening extra accounts usually breaks the terms and can lead to the bonus and winnings being cancelled.
Can I Play Andar Bahar Through a Mobile App?
Yes, if your casino offers an Android or iOS app. Live Andar Bahar tables also run in a mobile browser.
