FAQ

Good questions, asked.

How do you play Kitty?

Everyone pays the boot and gets nine cards, then arranges them into three hands of three, strongest first. The hands are shown one at a time and the best hand wins each. Win two of the three to take the pot.

What are a Salami and a Kitti?

A Salami is winning all three hands: you take the pot and one boot from each player. A Kitti is when nobody wins two hands: the cards are dealt again and the pot stays where it is.

Can I play without internet?

Yes. Practice tables against bots work with no internet, and Nearby lets one phone host a table over the same WiFi so friends in the room can join without any internet connection.

Is it real money?

No. Juwa Adda uses virtual chips only. Chips have no cash value, can never be cashed out, and never move between players.
