Sic Bo Rules
The game of sic bo is played with dice. After all the bets have been made, the dealer spins a small cage containing three dice. The results of which can be bet on in a number of different ways.
Single Number Bets
The bottom row of the sic bo table has six betting areas. These are called single number bets. If one of the three dice comes up as one the numbers bet on (from 1-6), you get paid out at 1-1. If two numbers come up you get paid out at 2-1 and if three numbers come up you get paid out at 3-1. So if bet on the number 6 and you wagered $5.00 and 2 sixes came up you would win $10.00.
- One Number Appears 1-1
- Two Numbers Appear 2-1
- Three Numbers Appear 3-1
Two Number Combinations 6-1
The two number combination bets in sic bo consist of placing a wager on any 2 dice combinations. If you wager on a 6,4 combination and the result of the dice roll was 4,7,6, you would win at 6-1 odds. You can only win on one instance of the two-number combination in sic bo, so 6,4,4 would only pay out once.
Three Number Totals
