Pure Sequence in Teen Patti: Rules and Examples
Quick answer: A pure sequence is three consecutive cards of the same suit, like 6-7-8 of hearts. It is the second-highest hand in Teen Patti, beaten only by a trail. Pure sequences rank by the run, with A-K-Q highest. There are 48 pure sequences in the deck, about 1 in 460 deals.
Pure vs normal sequence
| Hand | Example | Ways |
|---|---|---|
| Pure sequence | 6♥ 7♥ 8♥ | 48 |
| Sequence | 6♥ 7♠ 8♦ | 720 |
Any pure sequence beats any normal sequence. So 4-3-2 of clubs beats A-K-Q of mixed suits.
Ranking pure sequences
Same order as the sequence list: A-K-Q, then A-2-3 in most apps, then K-Q-J down to 4-3-2.
Pure sequence in rummy is different
In Indian rummy, “pure sequence” means a run of three or more cards of the same suit without a joker, and one is required to declare. The term means something similar but the role is different. See our 13 card rummy guide.
