Tyranu Evavu Guide

Written by Kym Huynh

There's not much to this game. Its based mainly and purely on luck. However, there is an element of common sense that must be thrown into it if you want to become a grand master. For instance, pretend the card they gave you was the lowest, i.e. 2, then you wouldn't pick evavu (lower) because its just simply silly. You cannot get a card lower than two. This is what I mean by common sense. The key to mastering this game is using the balance of probabilities to achieve your goal. For instance, if a 9 came up, you have the possibility of a 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace coming up if higher (5 possible outcomes) and a 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2 coming out if lower (7 possible outcomes). Because going lower has more of a chance to appear, it would make more sense to pick this.

Many people say that you should go with what you feel, i.e. say you got 6 highs in a row and suddenly, you should pick lower because it feels right, well, personally, I like this strategy (although it doesn't always work) but hey, its only a game right?

So with that out of the way, here's a possible combination of what you can get.

2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King, Ace
** Note: 8 is the middle number

If you get 2, choose Tyranu (higher), Pr (getting right) = 12/13
If you get 3, choose Tyranu (higher), Pr (getting right) = 11/13
If you get 4, choose Tyranu (higher), Pr (getting right) = 10/13
If you get 5, choose Tyranu (higher), Pr (getting right) = 9/13
If you get 6, choose Tyranu (higher), Pr (getting right) = 8/13
If you get 7, choose Tyranu (higher), Pr (getting right) = 7/13
If you get 8, choose Tyranu or Evavu (higher or lower), Pr (getting right) = 6/12 or 1/2
If you get 9, choose Evavu (lower), Pr (getting right) = 7/13
If you get 10, choose Evavu (lower), Pr (getting right) = 8/13
If you get Jack, choose Evavu (lower), Pr (getting right) = 9/13
If you get Queen, choose Evavu (lower), Pr (getting right) = 10/13
If you get King, choose Evavu (lower), Pr (getting right) = 11/13
If you get Ace, choose Evavu (lower), Pr (getting right) = 12/13

**Note: Pr stands for probability.

Example
You get a 6

Because this is a 6, referring to the information above, I have more chance of getting it right if I choose Tyranu (a 8/13 chance) so I will choose Tyranu!

One last thing, be careful when you choose the signs tyranu or evavu because often, the host/hostess switches the cards for each other so the tyranu card may appear where the evavu card was in the last guess.
