Sic
Bo, known by some as Tai Sai, is an ancient Chinese game of
chance. It may have originally used a pair of dice shaken
between a plate and an overturned bowl, but today it commonly
has 3 dice in a cage for tumbling. Extremely popular in Asian
cultures, this exciting, engaging game is winning new converts
in many casinos around the world.
Sic Bo is easy to play. The object is to
pick the numbers or combinations that will appear on the dice
when they come to rest after tumbling. There are 50 different
ways to place bets, so you have plenty of choices with a range
of payouts – some as high as 180-to-1.

Bet Options
Our Sic Bo table offers the following types of bets (from top
to bottom):
Small Bet (Under
11)
Small bets win when the point total of the three dice is
between 4 and 10 (also expressed as "Under 11"). The payout is
1-to-1 unless there is a low Triple (Triple 1s, 2s or 3s), in
which case the Small bet loses. There are 108 possible
combinations of the three dice that add up to point totals
under 11, and only 3 of them are Triples.
Specific Double
To win a Specific Double bet, two of the three dice must show
the Double you select. The payout is 10-to-1. There are six
Specific Double bets you can make (and you can place bets on
any or all of them for any spin). If the third dice also
matches the Specific Double number (in other words, when the
result is a Triple), the Specific Double bet still wins.
Specific Triple
To win a Specific Triple bet, all three of the dice must show
the Specific Triple you select. The payout is 180-to-1. There
are six Specific Triple bets you can make (and you can place
bets on any or all of them for any spin).
Any Triple
To win the Any Triple bet, all three of the dice must show the
same number, but it can be any of the six possible numbers.
This bet wins on any triple result. The payout is 30-to-1.
Big Bet (Over 10)
Big bets win when the point total of the three dice is between
11 and 17 (also expressed as "Over 10"). The payout is 1:1
unless there is a high Triple (Triple 4s, 5s or 6s), in which
case the Big bet loses. There are 108 possible combinations of
the three dice that add up to point totals over 10, and only 3
of them are Triples.
Specific Total
To win a Specific Total bet, all three of the dice must add up
to the Specific Total you select. The payout varies depending
on the total selected, from 6-to-1 to 60-to-1 (as indicated in
the table layout and the payout table below). There are
fourteen Specific Total bets you can make: totals of 4 through
17 (and you can place bets on any or all of them for any spin).
For any given spin, only one of the fourteen totals can win.
Pair Match
To win a Pair Match bet, two of the three of the dice must
make the pair selected. The payout is 5-to-1 on each pair.
There are fifteen Pair Match bets you can make (and you can
place bets on any or all of them for any spin). Note that for
a result with three singles (for example: 1, 4, 5), three of
the Pair Match bets will win (in this example: 1&4, 1&5 and
4&5).
Numbers Bet
If you place a wager on any of the six numbered boxes in the "Numbers
Bet" area at the bottom of the table layout (the largest die
labeled one, two, three, four, five, or six) you will win
according to how many of the three dice come up with the
selected number.

1 of 3 (a Single) |
1:1 |

2 of 3 (a Double) |

|
3 of 3 (a Triple) |

Thus, if all three dice come up 4, any
wager on the Number 4 die bet would pay 10-to-1. You can bet
on as many individual Numbers as you like.

;o) Give Me A Double
So this guy walks into a bar and says, "Gve me two beers."
The bartender obliges him.
The guy looks into his wallet and says, "Give me two more
beers."
So the bartender gives him two more beers. The man went on
like this until he had put down ten beers, and keeps on going
in his wallet and asking for two more beers.
So the bartender asks, "What's in your wallet that you keep
looking at?"
So the man opens his wallet and says, "The more I drink, the
prettier my wife gets."
