From barangay nights to birthday parties, Pusoy has always been the game Filipinos reach for when the cards come out. Now 777up brings it online — same tense moments, same satisfying wins, same competitive spirit — with actual pesos on the line and players from all over the Philippines.
Game Overview
Ask anyone who grew up in the Philippines and they'll tell you — Pusoy is practically a rite of passage. Whether it was played on a banig in the living room during the holidays, in the tambayan after class, or at a family reunion while the lechon was still roasting, Pusoy has always been around. It's our game. It belongs here.
Pusoy, sometimes called Filipino poker or Chinese Poker depending on who you ask, is a 13-card game where four players each receive a full hand of 13 cards from a standard 52-card deck. Each player then arranges their cards into three separate hands: a back hand of five cards, a middle hand of five cards, and a front hand of three cards. The catch? Your back hand must be your strongest, your middle must be the second strongest, and your front hand — the weakest. If you don't set them in that order, it's a foul and you pay for it.
Each of your three hands is compared against the same hand position of every other player at the table. Win more hands than you lose and you walk away ahead. It sounds straightforward, but the real skill is in how you arrange those 13 cards. That's where the strategy lives — and it's where 777up players sharpen their edge round after round.
At 777up, you get to play Pusoy against real Filipino players in real time. The tables are active throughout the day and night. Whether you're in Davao, Iloilo, Pampanga, or right in the heart of Metro Manila, there's always a table with an open seat waiting for you.
Good to know: Pusoy at 777up uses a standard Philippine scoring system. Winning all three hands against a single opponent is called a "sweep" and earns bonus points. Some tables also apply a "royalty" bonus for premium hands like straight flushes or four of a kind in your back hand.

Knowing your hand rankings cold is the foundation of good Pusoy play. Here's the complete order used in all 777up Pusoy tables.

Note: The front hand (3 cards) can only contain High Card, One Pair, or Three of a Kind — no straights or flushes apply to the 3-card hand in standard Pusoy rules.

Registration takes under two minutes. Just provide your basic info, verify your mobile number, and your account is ready. No lengthy forms, no complicated verification for starters.

Head to the Pusoy section. You'll see available rooms sorted by stake level — low, mid, and high. Pick one that matches your budget and click to enter.
Once four players are seated, the system deals 13 cards to each. You'll see your hand on screen and you have a set amount of time to arrange your three hands before the timer runs out.
