Trail / Trio
Asian Card Games (Teen Patti)REPORTED
The highest-ranking hand in Teen Patti, consisting of three cards of the same rank (three of a kind). The strongest Trail is three Aces (A-A-A); the weakest is three 2s (2-2-2). A Trail beats all other hand types regardless of the ranks involved: for example, three 2s beats A-K-Q suited. The probability of being dealt a Trail is approximately 0.24%.
In practice
The Trail ranking differs from standard poker where a straight flush outranks four of a kind. In Teen Patti, the ranking order more closely reflects three-card hand probabilities. Casino Teen Patti typically pays enhanced odds for Trails, up to 20:1 or higher.
