How Dragon Tiger Works
Dragon Tiger is the simplest casino card game available. One card is dealt to the Dragon position and one to the Tiger position. The higher card wins. That’s it. No drawing, no decisions — just a single card each and the result is instant.

Dragon Tiger Strategy for Singapore Players
Stick to Dragon or Tiger
Dragon and Tiger bets have the lowest house edge at 3.73%. All other bets — Tie, Suited Tie, Big/Small — have significantly higher house edges and should be avoided by Singapore players who want consistent play. The Tie bet at 32.77% is one of the worst bets in any live casino game.
Why Singapore Players Love Dragon Tiger
Dragon Tiger appeals to Singapore players who want fast, decisive action. Each hand resolves in under 15 seconds. There are no complex decisions, no strategy charts to remember — just Dragon or Tiger, and the result is instant. It is the perfect game for players who want high volume action at manageable stakes.
Card Counting Awareness
Dragon Tiger is dealt from an 8-deck shoe. As the shoe depletes, certain card counts become relevant — but this is impractical in an online live casino environment. Simply stick to Dragon or Tiger and manage your session budget.
