Step into the world of Fan Tan, a timeless Chinese gambling game now reimagined as a sleek, live dealer experience. 

Played with real beads and a metal cup, this Evolution-powered classic blends simplicity, suspense, and tradition. 

Bet on the final line-1, 2, 3, or 4 beads remain, and watch as the dealer reveals the result in real time. Clean design, and the fastest crypto payouts on Jackpot.bet.

What Is Fan Tan 

Fan Tan is a traditional Chinese gambling game with centuries of history, now brought to life by Evolution Gaming as a modern live dealer experience. 

Played with dozens of white beads and a metal cup, the goal is simple: predict how many beads will remain after they’re counted off in groups of four.

The game’s charm comes from its minimalism. No cards, just the sound of beads and the excitement of guessing the final line: 1, 2, 3, or 4. If you’re right, you win. That’s Fan Tan, and you can play at Jackpot.bet.

If you’ve never played Fan Tan before, don’t worry, this game is built to be intuitive from the first bead drop. 

Here’s a step by step on how it works:

1. Players Bet

Before each round begins, you place your bets. The most popular option is the Fan Bet, where you simply guess the number of remaining beads (1, 2, 3, or 4). More complex bets like Tan Pong or Nim Bet are also available for added depth.

2. Beads Are Gathered

The dealer uses a metal cup to scoop a random number of white beads onto the playing mat. These are spread in full view and then collected.

3. Countdown Begins

Using a special tool, the dealer counts the beads in groups of four. This continues until four or fewer beads remain - this is the final result.

4. Payouts Are Made

If your prediction was right, you win according to the odds of your bet. Each betting round is quick, visual, and designed for repeat play.

Fan Tan is built for simplicity and smart betting. There is just a live bead count, strategic picks, and fast resolution.

Minimum & Maximum Bets

You can enter a round of live Fan Tan with as little as $0.10 or ramp up to higher stakes depending on your bankroll. The betting limits are designed for both newcomers and seasoned casino players.

Return to Player (e-RTP)

The effective return to player is e-RTP: 99.38%, making Fan Tan one of the highest-return live games at Jackpot.bet. With such a low house edge, it rewards consistency and precision.

Max Win Potential

While Fan Tan isn’t a high-volatility game with massive multipliers, specific Fan Tan bets like Tan Koi or Tan Ching can return solid wins for risk-takers. Since this game doesn’t publish an exact max payout, your win depends on your wager type and how well you read the remaining count.

Volatility & Risk

This is a medium-volatility game. You can go steady with the Fan Bet, which pays 1:2 or 1:3 depending on your position. Or explore combo bets like Nim Bet for a higher-risk, higher-reward edge.
