While Craps dominates the dice tables in Western casinos, Sic Bo holds that prestigious title throughout Asia.
If you can understand basic roulette betting, you can easily master the thrilling game of Sic Bo in minutes.
How the Game is Played
Unlike craps, where a player physically throws two dice, Sic Bo utilizes exactly three dice to determine the outcome.
The objective of the entire game is merely to predict the exact outcome or combination shown on those three dice.
- The game uses exactly three standard six-sided dice
- Players do not physically touch or throw the dice
- The betting layout lights up to show winning bets instantly
The Best Bets for Sic Bo Beginners
These are the fundamental even-money bets of Sic Bo, very similar to betting Red or Black in European roulette.
Conversely, the "Big" bet wins if the total sum of the three dice falls between 11 and 17.
Chasing Massive Sic Bo Payouts
The probability of this happening is incredibly low, so the casino rewards you with a massive payout of 180 to 1.
You can also bet on specific two-dice combinations, single numbers appearing, or exact specific total sums.
| Bet Type | Example | Payout Odds |
|---|---|---|
| Any Triple | 1-1-1, 2-2-2, etc. | 30 to 1 |
| Specific Total | Total sum equals exactly 10 | 6 to 1 |
By sticking primarily to the Big and Small bets, you can enjoy hours of entertainment with a very low house edge.
