Andar Bahar is one of the oldest and most loved card games on the subcontinent — and at 365pkt you can play it live with a real dealer or in fast-paced RNG format, any time of day, for real Pakistani Rupees.
365pkt brings the best of Pakistan's gaming culture online — Andar Bahar, live casino and more.
One of the simplest card games ever invented — two sides, one joker, and a bet on which side the matching card lands. Here is exactly how it works.
Dealing always starts with Andar. This gives Bahar a very slight statistical disadvantage when the Joker is a black suit card, and Andar a slight disadvantage for red suits. Most 365pkt Andar Bahar tables pay 0.90:1 on Andar bets to reflect this — meaning a winning Rs 1,000 Andar bet returns Rs 900 profit, while a winning Bahar bet returns Rs 1,000 profit.
No real money involved here — just click "Deal" to see how Andar Bahar plays out. Your bet is placed on Andar for this demo. Watch the cards land until the Joker's value reappears.
365pkt offers multiple versions of Andar Bahar to suit different playing styles — from traditional live dealer tables to feature-packed modern variants.

Andar Bahar is one of those games that requires almost no explanation to someone who grew up on the subcontinent. The rules are so simple — pick a side, watch the cards — that you can go from never having heard of it to playing a full hand in about two minutes. That simplicity is a big part of why it has remained so popular across Pakistan and the wider region for generations, and why 365pkt's Andar Bahar tables consistently draw some of the highest player numbers in the live casino section.
The game arrived in its modern online form thanks to live dealer technology, and 365pkt brings that technology directly to Pakistani players in a way that works with local infrastructure. You do not need a high-spec computer or a fast broadband connection — the 365pkt Andar Bahar live streams are optimised for mobile data connections common across Pakistan's cities and towns. You can watch a live dealer shuffle and deal from your phone in Karachi, Lahore, or anywhere else with a signal.
There is something fundamentally different about watching a real person deal the cards compared to an animated RNG game. When a live dealer at 365pkt draws the Joker card and places it face-up on the table, there is genuine anticipation as each subsequent card falls on Andar or Bahar. You can see with your own eyes that the deck is real, the shuffle is real, and the outcome is not pre-scripted. This transparency is part of what makes live dealer Andar Bahar the most popular variant at 365pkt.
The 365pkt live dealers who run Andar Bahar tables are professional studio dealers trained specifically for this format. They keep a steady dealing pace, announce each card clearly, and manage the betting window so all players — from those on desktop in Islamabad to those on mobile in Multan — can place their bets before the deal begins. The atmosphere is professional but approachable, much like a real card room without the commute.
The standard game is already exciting, but Lightning Andar Bahar at 365pkt takes it a level further. Before each round, a random selection of cards across the full deck has lightning struck on them. These lightning cards carry multipliers — anywhere from 2× all the way up to 500× your bet. If you bet Rs 1,000 on Andar and the matching card happens to be a 500× lightning card, you walk away with Rs 5,00,000 from a single round.
Of course, lightning cards are rare and the multiplier outcomes are not guaranteed, but this is exactly the kind of game that appeals to Pakistani players who enjoy the possibility of a life-changing win on a straightforward bet. The base game still pays out at the usual Andar/Bahar rates — lightning only activates when your bet wins and the matching card is one of the pre-selected lightning cards. It adds a genuine layer of excitement without changing the fundamental simplicity that makes the game so appealing.
Once you are comfortable with the basic Andar/Bahar bet at 365pkt, the side bets open up a whole new layer of the game. The most popular among 365pkt players is the "number of cards before match" side bet — essentially a prediction of how many cards will be dealt before the matching card appears. A match on the very first Andar card pays 11.5:1. A long game going past 30 cards pays 25:1.
Side bets do carry higher house edges than the main Andar/Bahar bet, so they should be approached as occasional additions rather than a primary strategy. That said, many experienced 365pkt Andar Bahar players mix a small side bet with their main Andar or Bahar bet on every round, finding that the combination of a near-even main bet and a high-odds side bet makes for an engaging session with controlled risk and meaningful upside.
Not every session calls for a live dealer table. Sometimes you have five minutes between tasks, a quick break, or simply want to play at a pace that suits you rather than the table's betting clock. For those moments, 365pkt's RNG Turbo Andar Bahar is the answer. The mechanics are identical to the live game — Joker drawn, sides dealt, match found — but the entire process runs in seconds and you click at your own pace. Minimum bet on the RNG version is Rs 50, making it accessible for shorter, lower-stakes sessions.
Both the live dealer and RNG versions of Andar Bahar at 365pkt use the same PKR currency, the same Easypaisa and JazzCash deposit and withdrawal options, and the same instant payout system. There is no difference in how your winnings are handled regardless of which version you play.
