Card games have always been at the heart of Filipino gaming culture — from Tong-its at the neighbourhood sari-sari store to Baccarat tables at five-star casinos. 708 Pub brings that same energy online, with live dealer tables, fast RNG card games, and real-money action starting from just ₱50 per hand.
There is something about a card game that just hits differently. The shuffle, the deal, that moment of suspense when the third card gets flipped in Baccarat — it is all wrapped up in a sense of anticipation that no other casino format quite replicates. Filipinos have always had a deep connection with card games, and that passion is exactly what 708 Pub is built around.
The 708 Pub card games lobby is one of the busiest sections on the platform. We have two distinct categories: live dealer card games where a real human croupier deals from behind a camera in real time, and RNG (Random Number Generator) card games where the outcome is generated digitally with certified fairness. Both formats have their fans — some players love the social feel of watching a live dealer; others prefer the speed and availability of instant RNG games that never need a table to open up.
All stakes are in Philippine Pesos (₱), all deposits and withdrawals go through GCash, Maya, or your Philippine bank, and the whole platform is designed to work smoothly on a mid-range Android phone over a stable mobile data connection. No installs, no bulky downloads. Just open the browser, find your table, and play.
From classic Asian card rooms to international casino staples — here are the titles getting the most action on 708 Pub right now.
Player vs. Banker — the ultimate guessing game with a near 50/50 split
Baccarat is the number one card game on 708 Pub by volume, and it is not really close. The simplicity is the point — you bet on Player, Banker, or Tie, the cards are dealt, and the one closest to 9 wins. No complex decisions to agonise over, just the pure tension of watching two hands develop in real time. The live dealer version has chat support so you can celebrate (or commiserate) with other players at the table.
Three-card South Asian poker — hugely popular with Filipino players
Teen Patti — sometimes called Flash or Flush — is a three-card game that has exploded in popularity among Filipino players over the last few years. Each player receives three cards and must decide whether to play blind (without looking at their cards) or seen, with bet sizing rules that differ accordingly. The psychological element of deciding when to go blind adds a layer of drama that pure odds-based games cannot match.
Beat the dealer to 21 — the most skill-intensive card game on the platform
Blackjack is where card game strategy really matters. Hit, stand, double down, split — every decision you make has a mathematically optimal play based on your hand and the dealer's upcard. 708 Pub's live Blackjack tables run at multiple stake levels, and the RNG version lets you play at your own pace so you can take time to think through each hand. A great choice for players who want their skill to make a real difference.
Two cards, one winner — the fastest card game at 708 Pub
Dragon Tiger is the fastest card game on 708 Pub. The dealer places one card face up on the Dragon position and one on the Tiger. You bet on which is higher. That is the entire game. Rounds take about 15 seconds from bet to result. The simplicity makes it perfect for mobile play — you can fit in dozens of rounds during a jeepney ride. It is also a popular choice for players who want to clear a bonus wagering requirement quickly.
Single-card cut game with even-money bets — pure instinct and timing
Andar Bahar — meaning "inside outside" — is a traditional Indian card game that Filipino players have taken to immediately because of its simplicity. A joker card is drawn, then cards are alternately placed on two piles (Andar and Bahar). You bet on which pile the matching card will appear on first. No decision-making mid-game, just the suspense of watching card after card flip until a match lands. Rounds are quick and the atmosphere on the live tables is electric.
Texas Hold'em against the house — poker skill meets casino odds
Casino Hold'em takes the Texas Hold'em format you know from poker and restructures it as a player-vs-house game. You and the dealer both get two hole cards plus a shared community board. The best five-card hand wins. Side bets for hands like flush, straight, and three of a kind add extra action beyond the main bet. 708 Pub's Casino Hold'em live tables run multiple stake levels to suit everyone from casual players to high rollers.
Since Baccarat is by far the most played card game on 708 Pub, it deserves a proper deep dive. Filipino players love it because it is fast, the house edge is among the lowest of any casino game, and you do not need any technical skill to make the right bet. Here is a complete rundown of how the game works and where the value lies.
Both Player and Banker receive two cards each. Aces count as 1, face cards and tens count as 0, and all other cards count at face value. The total of each hand uses only the last digit — so a 7 and 8 add up to 15 but count as 5. A natural 8 or 9 ends the hand immediately. If neither hand is a natural, a third card may be drawn based on set rules that neither player nor banker has any control over.
| Bet Type | Payout | House Edge | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Banker Win | 1:1 (−5% commission) | 1.06% | Best bet by math — bet here most often |
| Player Win | 1:1 | 1.24% | Good bet, slightly worse than Banker |
| Tie | 8:1 | 14.36% | Exciting but statistically poor value |
| Banker Pair | 11:1 | 10.36% | Side bet — fun but play in moderation |
| Player Pair | 11:1 | 10.36% | Side bet — same caveat as Banker Pair |
The road map (or scorecard) in Baccarat shows the history of recent results. B = Banker win, P = Player win, T = Tie. At 708 Pub, live Baccarat tables display the Big Road, the Bead Plate, and derived roads. While past results do not predict future ones, many experienced players use road patterns as a mental framework for their next bet.
Sample road map — B = Banker, P = Player, T = Tie

The Banker bet has the lowest house edge on any card game at 708 Pub — just 1.06% after commission. It does not guarantee wins, but over thousands of hands it is mathematically the most sound bet in the lobby. Make it your default starting position.
The Tie bet pays 8:1 and it looks tempting, but the house edge is over 14%. Enjoy it as an occasional flutter, but do not build a session strategy around it. Stick to Banker and Player for sustained play.
Blackjack is the one card game where correct play consistently reduces the house edge to under 0.5%. There are free basic strategy charts widely available — study the main decisions (when to hit, stand, double, split) and apply them at 708 Pub's Blackjack tables for the best possible return.
Before sitting down at any card table on 708 Pub, decide the maximum you are willing to spend in that session and stop when you hit it. Card games can go on a long time and it is easy to lose track. Setting a hard limit upfront keeps things enjoyable.
If you are new to Baccarat, Teen Patti, or Blackjack, the RNG (non-live) versions on 708 Pub are a great learning environment. You can play at your own pace, take your time reading the rules on screen, and build confidence before moving to a live dealer table where the pace is much faster.

Every non-live card game on 708 Pub uses certified RNG software. Card distribution is independent, unbiased, and cannot be influenced by anyone — not the platform, not the player, not anyone else. You get a genuinely fair deal every hand.
Open 708 Pub in Chrome on your Android or Safari on your iPhone and the full card games lobby loads cleanly. Live dealer video streams on mobile data without stuttering. Chip placement, card views, and road maps all scale to your screen size naturally.
When you are done playing and ready to cash out, 708 Pub processes withdrawals to GCash, Maya, and Philippine banks rapidly — most transactions clear within five minutes regardless of what time of day you request. No standard bank-day restrictions.
