The Basic Rules Of Sic-Bo

Sic-Bo is a casino dice game that has a very similar layout as Roulette.  The game is pretty simple, the dice is tossed and the outcomes are shown and players place their bets on them. Once all bets are placed on the table, the dealer will throw the 3 dices and reveal the outcomes. The origins of Sic-Bo come from China which means “dice pair”. The game of Sic-Bo became very popular in the far east and recently made its apparition in casinos across USA. Players are allowed to place more than one bet at a time.

Small & Big Bet: If you place a wager on a “Small” bet, you win if the total sum of the 3 dices is between 4 and 10. For the “Big” bet, you win if the total sum is between 11 and 18. You lose both “Small” and “Big” bets if the dice outcome is a 3 of a kind (eg: 3x 4 or 3x 6 etc…). The payout for “Small” and “Big” bets is of 1 to 1.

Number Bet: This type of bet is when a player places a bet on a specific number that he thinks might appear in the next dice roll. Players select a number from 1 to 6 and put their wagers on the corresponding area. The payout for this kind of bet varies on the number of times the chosen number appears. If the number appears once, then the payout is of 1 to 1. If it appears twice, then the payout is of 2 to 1, and so on and so forth.

Pair Bet: A player can bet on any of the 15 possible combinations two dices have (eg: 2 and 6; 1 and 3; 4 and 5). If both numbers appear, the payout if of 5 to 1. If none appear, the bet is lost.

Total Bet: When placing a total bet, you are betting on the outcome of the sum of all 3 dices. The possible outcomes are from 4 to 17, the numbers 3 and 18 are excluded. The payouts vary greatly from sum to sum, therefore I have put together a payouts table right below.

• Total of 4 – 60 to 1

• Total of 17 – 60 to 1

Double Bet: This kind of bet is when a player bets on a specific pair to appear (eg: 2x 3; 2x 4; 2x 5;). If your chosen numbers appear at least twice, you win and your payout is of 10 to 1.

Triple Bet: A triple bet is when a player places a bet on the outcome of the 3 dices to be the same (eg: 3x 2; 3x 4; 3x 5;). If your chosen numbers appear, you win and your payout is of 180 to 1.

Any Triple Bet: A player places a bet that the outcome of all 3 dices will be identical, hens the term “Any Triple”. If the player wins, his payout is of 30 to 1.
