tat·ló’t wa·lâ
tatló’t walâ
“three and nothing”
This is a coin-toss game played mostly by boys in the Tagalog region. It is a variation of the more familiar cara y cruz.
Tatlo’s Wala involves the use of three coins instead of the two in cara y cruz. All the coins are arranged in a tails-up position instead of the alternate positions of cara y cruz.
A player tosses the coins in the air. If they land on the ground all heads up, the player wins. If they land all tails up, then his opponent wins.
