What is Tongits?

The Classic Filipino Card Game

Tongits is a three-player rummy-style card game that originated in the Philippines and has become a cultural phenomenon. The game is played using a standard 52-card deck, where players aim to form sets (three or four cards of the same rank) and runs (three or more consecutive cards of the same suit).

The game's popularity stems from its perfect balance of skill and luck. Players must decide when to draw cards, when to discard, and strategically manage their hand to achieve "Tongits" (emptying your hand completely) or have the lowest point value when a player calls "Draw."

Played with a standard 52-card deck

How to Play Tongits

Complete Tongits Guide for Beginners

Learning Tongits at happy bingo casino is easy. Follow these steps to master the game and start winning:

1. Deal the Cards

Each player receives 12 cards. The remaining stack becomes the draw pile, and one card is placed face-up to start the discard pile.

2. Form Melds

Arrange your cards into sets (three or four cards of the same rank) or runs (three or more consecutive cards of the same suit). You can reveal melds during your turn.

3. Draw and Discard

On your turn, draw one card from either the draw pile or discard pile. Then discard one card to the discard pile to maintain 12 cards in hand.

4. Call Tongits

If you empty your hand by forming melds, call "Tongits" and win the game immediately! Other players pay you based on their remaining card points.

5. Call Draw

If you believe your hidden hand has the lowest point value, you can call "Draw." All players reveal their hands, and the one with the lowest points wins.

6. Scoring

Aces = 1 point, 2-10 = face value, Face cards = 10 points. The winner receives payment from losers based on point differences.
