    What is Dragon Tiger?

    Dragon Tiger is a two-card game from Cambodia, popular in South-East Asia and now India. The dealer places one card on Dragon, one on Tiger. Highest card wins. That's the entire game.

    Payouts

    • Dragon or Tiger — 1:1 (50% win rate adjusted for ties)
    • Tie — 8:1
    • Suited Tie — 50:1
    • Big / Small — 1:1
    • Suit (specific colour) — 3:1

    House edge

    • Dragon / Tiger: 3.73%
    • Big / Small: 3.73%
    • Tie: 32.77% ← do not bet
    • Suited Tie: 13.89% ← do not bet

    Strategy

    There is no real strategy — Dragon Tiger is pure variance. The only "strategy" is to never touch the Tie bet. The 8:1 payout looks tempting but the true odds are closer to 14:1.

    Why play it then?

    Pace. A round takes 30 seconds. If you want quick action with low cognitive load between, say, IPL innings breaks, Dragon Tiger is perfect.

    Bankroll guidance

    Use the 2% rule. Variance is high — expect 6-loss streaks every 200 hands.
