The Game Explained

What Is Pusoy and Why Do Filipinos Love It?

Pusoy — sometimes called Filipino Poker or Chinese Poker — is a card game played with a standard 52-card deck. Each player receives 13 cards and arranges them into three separate hands: a back hand of five cards, a middle hand of five cards, and a front hand of three cards. The hands must be arranged in descending order of strength, with the back hand being the strongest and the front hand being the weakest.

What makes Pusoy so popular in Philippine households is the combination of strategy and social play. Unlike fast casino games, a Pusoy session gives players time to think, arrange their cards carefully, and consider how to maximise their position across all three hands. You are not just competing on one combination — you are trying to win on multiple fronts at once.

At bigo plus, the Pusoy format stays true to the game Filipinos know. The interface shows your 13 cards clearly on mobile, lets you drag and arrange them into the three hands, and automatically validates your arrangement before the round is finalised. Whether you are a seasoned player or still learning, the bigo plus Pusoy table walks you through each stage.

Card Rankings

Pusoy Hand Rankings You Need to Know

Understanding which combinations beat which is the foundation of every strong Pusoy session at bigo plus. From strongest to weakest:

Rank 1

Royal Flush

A, K, Q, J, 10 of the same suit. The strongest possible five-card hand. Rare but decisive at any bigo plus table.

Rank 2

Straight Flush

Five consecutive cards of the same suit. Powerful enough to win the back or middle hand in most rounds.

Rank 3

Four of a Kind

Four cards of the same rank. Strong in the back hand and difficult to beat at competitive bigo plus Pusoy tables.

Rank 4

Full House

Three of a kind combined with a pair. A reliable anchor for the back hand in the majority of Pusoy deals.

Rank 5

Flush

Five cards of the same suit in any order. A useful mid-strength combination for the back or middle positions.

Rank 6

Straight

Five consecutive cards of mixed suits. Flexible to place in either the back or middle hand depending on your 13 cards.

Rank 7

Three of a Kind

Three cards of the same rank. Commonly used in the front hand where only three cards are placed.

Rank 8

Pairs & High Cards

Two pairs, one pair, or the highest individual card. These fill the front hand and weaker positions in tighter deals.

New to the online version? Here is the round flow from dealing to settlement at a bigo plus table.

3

Pusoy Strategy Basics Worth Knowing

Even casual players benefit from keeping a few practical ideas in mind. The most important principle in Pusoy is not to over-commit your strongest cards to just one hand at the expense of the others. Winning two out of three positions is usually better than dominating one and losing the other two.

When you receive a very strong combination like a Full House or better, the natural instinct is to place it in the back hand and then struggle to build anything decent in the middle and front. A more balanced approach — placing a modest straight in the back, a two pair in the middle, and a single pair in the front — can produce more consistent wins across sessions at bigo plus.

The front hand three-card position is the trickiest because your options are limited. A pair of Aces in the front is already strong. If your 13 cards do not offer a strong front combination naturally, do not sacrifice your middle hand just to beef up the front — focus on winning two positions cleanly.

At bigo plus, the session pace allows you to review your hand carefully before confirming. Use that time. Rushing into an arrangement and then noticing you could have placed cards better is one of the most common frustrations among new players.

Your Privacy at Bigo Plus

Situation Suggested Approach
Strong back hand availableSecure the back, balance middle and front
13 cards spread evenlyBuild a modest win in all three positions
Flush possible in backPlace it there, use leftover for a pair in front
Two strong pairsSplit them across middle and front if possible
Weak overall dealMinimise losses — aim for at least one position win
Three of a kind availableStrong in front (3 cards) or back depending on other cards

These are general observations based on how Pusoy is traditionally played. No strategy guarantees consistent wins because card distribution is random at every bigo plus table.
