HOW THE GAME WORKS

Live Fan Tan Room — Betting Structure and Round Flow

Each round opens with the dealer placing a pile of ceramic beads on the table, then covering them with a cup. Before the cover lifts, you place a bet on one or more of the four outcome positions — Fan Tan's core bet types are Fan (straight call on 1, 2, 3 or 4), Nim (two-number spread bet), Kwok (two adjacent numbers) and Nga Tan (three-number cover). The dealer removes beads in groups of four until a remainder of 1, 2, 3 or 4 is left, and that remainder is the winning number.

  • Fan Bet

    The straight-call bet — pick exactly 1, 2, 3 or 4 as the round's remainder. Carries the highest payout ratio of the standard bet types. The current ratio is shown in the table overlay before the betting window opens each round.

  • Kwok and Nim Bets

    Kwok covers two adjacent numbers on the Fan Tan layout; Nim covers two numbers that include the dealer's marked position. Both pay at a reduced ratio compared to Fan, and both are selectable from the same bet panel in the Live Fan Tan Room interface.

  • Nga Tan Coverage

    Nga Tan spreads your position across three of the four numbers. Lower payout ratio, but three of four outcomes return your stake plus winnings. Useful when you want broader coverage in a single round without splitting across multiple bet rows.

  • Round Timer and Bet Window

    A visible countdown timer marks the open and closed betting phases of each round. The bet panel locks automatically when the window closes; the dealer then lifts the cup and removes beads in sets of four until the remainder is revealed live on screen.

GAME STATS SNAPSHOT

Live Fan Tan Room — Game Profile at a Glance

Live Fan Tan Room sits in the live dealer category rather than the slots category, so there are no reel mechanics and no slot-style spin features. The game's return figure is determined by the payout ratios shown on the live table overlay — the platform shows RTP information only where the game provider exposes it in the table interface.

  • Game Type

    Live dealer table game — bead-count format. No slots reels, no crash mechanic. Results are determined by a physical bead remainder counted in real time by the dealer on camera.

  • Volatility Shape

    Varies by bet type. Straight Fan bets produce higher-variance round outcomes. Nga Tan and Kwok bets flatten variance by covering more outcomes per round. Choose your bet type to match how you want the session to run.

  • Supported Devices

    Runs in mobile browser and desktop browser without a separate download. The live video feed and bet panel reflow for portrait and landscape orientations on phone. No native app install is required to access the table.

  • Access Region

    Available where local law and eligible regions permit. Malaysia players can check access from the live casino lobby after account login. RTP figures are shown in the table overlay only where the provider exposes them.

TABLE HELP ROUTES

Getting Help While You're at the Live Fan Tan Room Table

If a round result looks off or your wallet balance does not update after a settled hand, the first step is to check your account transaction history — every confirmed round result is logged there with the bet type, stake and outcome. For anything that needs a human response, reach out through the support channels shown in your account dashboard after login.

  • Transaction Log

    Every Live Fan Tan Room round you play is recorded in your account transaction history — bet type, stake amount, round outcome and wallet movement. Check here first when a result or balance looks unexpected before escalating to the support team.

  • Account Dashboard Support

    The support contact routes — including live chat if available in your region — are listed inside your account dashboard after login. Have your round reference number ready; the support team uses it to pull the exact round record and confirm the result.

  • Wallet and Payment Queries

    For deposit or withdrawal questions tied to FPX, Boost or Bank Transfer, the wallet section of your account shows the current status of each transaction. If a deposit has not reflected, the reference number from your bank or e-wallet receipt is the key detail to share with support.

FAIRNESS AND PROVIDER SIGNALS

What Makes Live Fan Tan Room Results Verifiable

Fan Tan's result is produced by a physical process — beads counted in groups of four by a live dealer on camera — which means the outcome is visible in real time rather than generated by a hidden algorithm. The live video feed lets you follow every step of the count. Game content on soda69 comes from studios including Pragmatic Play and Microgaming, whose live dealer tables are subject to standard industry certification for randomness and dealing procedure.

  • Physical Bead Count

    The round result comes from a real dealer counting real ceramic beads on camera — the process is visible from start to finish. No hidden number generator determines the Fan Tan outcome; the remainder after groups-of-four counting is the result you bet on.

  • Live Video Verification

    The dealer feed streams in real time throughout every round. You can watch the cup lift, the bead removal and the final remainder count in the same view where your bet panel sits — nothing about the count happens off-screen.

  • Studio Certification

    Live table content from Pragmatic Play and Microgaming is produced under standard industry certification for dealing procedure and result integrity. Certification details specific to your region are available in the table information panel inside the room.

  • Account-Level Record

    Every round result is written to your account transaction history immediately after the hand settles. The log shows bet type, stake, round outcome and the amount credited or deducted — a permanent record you can reference at any point after the session.

Live Fan Tan Room — What the Game Is and Why It Plays Differently
Reference / 07

Live Fan Tan Room — What the Game Is and Why It Plays Differently

Fan Tan is a Chinese counting game built on one of the simplest possible mechanics: a dealer covers a pile of beads, you bet on what remainder is left after removing them in groups of four, and the result is 1, 2, 3 or 4. That simplicity makes the game fast to learn. Live Fan Tan Room on soda69 runs the format with a real dealer on camera, so every stage of the count is visible — cover, removal, remainder. The betting structure goes beyond a straight number call.

Live Fan Tan Room — Terms Explained

Quick definitions for the terms that come up most when you're learning or playing Live Fan Tan Room for the first time.

What is a Fan bet in Fan Tan?

A Fan bet is the straight single-number call — you pick exactly 1, 2, 3 or 4 as the round's remainder. It carries the highest payout ratio of the main bet types because only one of the four numbers wins.

What does Kwok mean in Live Fan Tan Room?

Kwok is a two-number bet covering two adjacent positions on the Fan Tan layout. It pays at a lower ratio than a straight Fan call because two of the four possible remainders would result in a win for you.

What is Nga Tan?

Nga Tan covers three of the four possible remainder numbers in a single bet. The payout ratio is the lowest of the standard bet types, but three out of four round outcomes return your stake plus the applicable winnings.

What is the Fan Tan remainder?

The remainder is what is left after the dealer removes beads from the pile in groups of four. When fewer than four beads are left — 1, 2, 3 or 4 — that count is the round result and settles all active bets.

What does RTP mean for a live table game like Fan Tan?

RTP (Return to Player) is the theoretical percentage of total stakes returned to players over many rounds. For Live Fan Tan Room, the figure varies by bet type and is shown in the table overlay only where the provider exposes it.

What is a Nim bet?

Nim is a two-number bet that covers one number and the dealer's marked Fan Tan position. Like Kwok, it spreads across two of the four possible remainders and pays at a reduced ratio compared to a straight Fan call.
