Suited Tie (Dragon Tiger)
Asian Card GamesREPORTED
A side bet in Dragon Tiger that wins when the Dragon and Tiger cards have both the same rank AND the same suit, resulting in a tie. The Suited Tie pays significantly more than a standard tie: typically 50:1. The standard Tie (same rank, any suit) usually pays 8:1 or 11:1.
In practice
The Suited Tie has an extremely high house edge, often exceeding 15%. It is rarely hit due to its low probability. Some Dragon Tiger variants offer enhanced Suited Tie payouts of 200:1 or more.
