JLBET Bull Bull: How a Five-Card Hand Is Built and Ranked

Bull Bull is a five-card game where you try to pick out three cards that add up to a multiple of ten, then score the other two. The three-card group is the bull; the remaining pair gives your points. This page shows how to read a hand, how the ranks run, and where to check a table’s own rules, since tables differ. It sits with the other dealt games on the JLBET live casino tab.

Card values in Bull Bull

Before you can build a hand, you need the value of each card. The scale is simple and the same on every table.

Suits do not change a card’s value in the count. Add three cards by these values, and you know whether you have a bull.

How to build a Bull Bull hand

A hand has five cards, and the job is to split them into a group of three and a pair. Here is the order to follow.

1. Look for any three cards whose values add up to 10, 20 or 30.
2. If you find three, that group is your bull, and the other two cards are your score cards.
3. Add the two score cards and keep the last digit of the total as your points.
4. If the two score cards total a multiple of ten, the hand is Bull Bull, worth 10 points.
5. If no three cards make a multiple of ten, the hand is No Bull.

A named example: you hold ace, 9, queen, 5 and 4. Ace, 9 and queen total 20, so those three are the bull. The 5 and 4 give 9 points, so your hand is Bull 9.

Bull Bull hand ranks from No Bull to Bull Bull

The order from lowest to highest follows the points. Tables can add special hands, so read the table’s own rules panel for the full ladder.

Two hands of the same rank are settled by the table’s tie-break rule, which differs from table to table. Look for it on the rules panel.

Niu Niu: the same game under another name

Niu Niu is the Chinese name for the game most players search as Bull Bull, and the card maths is the same. “Niu” means ox or cow, which is where the bull in the English name comes from. You may see both names on different tables.

1. Read the table’s name to see which one it uses.
2. Open the rules panel for the payout list.
3. Check the tie-break rule before you bet.

Payouts, commission and house edge

This page states no payout, commission or house edge, since each table sets its own. Read what the table lists in its rules panel, and treat any figure from another table as a different table’s rule. The dealer’s job at a dealt game is covered in our page on what a croupier does.

What to read next

Bull Bull is played hand against hand with a fixed scoring rule, which is why it differs from a bet-on-the-banker table. Three steps before your first hand:

1. Open the table’s rules panel and read its payouts and tie-break.
2. Set a budget and a time limit.
3. For a game where the house edge differs by bet, see how to win at baccarat.
