Is Fantan the same game as Fan Tan?

Yes. Fantan, fan-tan and Fan Tan are the same Chinese game of counting a hidden pile of objects into groups of four, played in Guangdong since at least the 19th century and later in Macau and the overseas Chinese communities. Evolution's Fan Tan Live keeps the rules and the four results; only the beads, the glass dome and the live host are new. This page records that version.

How is the result decided?

The host scoops part of the bead pile with a metal cup and sorts the scooped beads into lines of four with a stick. The final line can hold 1, 2, 3 or 4 beads, and that count is the result. Every number has the same one-in-four chance on every round. The results feed reports the number, not how many beads the cup held.

What is the difference between Nim and Kwok?

Both cover two numbers. A Kwok bet wins on either of them and pays 0.95:1. A Nim bet names one number to win and one to push: if the winner comes up it pays 1.90:1, if the push number comes up the stake is returned, and the other two numbers lose. Both are in the advanced betting view, together with Ssh.

Why does Fan pay 2.85:1 and not 3:1?

A single number has a one-in-four chance, so a fair payout would be 3:1. Evolution keeps a 5% commission on every winning bet, which brings Fan down to 2.85:1, Kwok and the even-money bets to 0.95:1, Nim to 1.90:1 and Ssh to 0.3167:1. That commission is the house edge.

What is the RTP of Fan Tan Live?

It depends on the bet. Fan returns 96.25%, Nim, Kwok, Odd/Even and Small/Big 97.5%, and Ssh 98.75%, the highest of the table. The Optimal bet block on this page replays all 28 bets against the recorded rounds; it describes the window, not the odds of the next round.

Is there a bonus round?

No. Fan Tan Live has no bonus game, no multipliers and no wheel. Every payout is fixed, which is why this page tracks numbers, side bets and player wins rather than multipliers.

Can I watch Fan Tan Live here?

No. Scoreo shows results and statistics only. Playing or watching requires an account at a licensed casino that carries Evolution games.

Can past results predict the next round?

No. Each scoop is random and every number keeps its one-in-four chance whatever came before. Frequencies, rounds since a number and the best-returning bet describe what has happened; they do not change the odds of the next round.

Fan Tan Live is Evolution's take on the traditional Chinese bead game. After bets close the host scoops a random pile of beads from under a glass dome with a metal cup, then uses a stick to sort them into lines of four. Whatever is left in the last line, 1, 2, 3 or 4 beads, is the result. Scoreo records every round: the number that decided it, the bets that paid, the winners and the payout.

Result = the beads left in the last line of four. Side bets = its parity and size; also paid = the Kwok pairs and Ssh triples that covered it (the three Nim bets on the number won too). Winners and payout are the table totals for the round. The feed does not report how many beads the cup scooped.
