How To Play Sic Bo

Sic-Bo is an Asian dice game that literally translates to “dice pair”, though the game actually uses 3 dice. It also goes by the name Hi-Lo in the Philippines. Players place bets on different dice outcomes and combinations. After bets are placed, the dealer rolls the dice and announces the outcome.

There are eight different bets in Sic-Bo:

1. Single Die Face
Any single number from 1 to 6

2. Two Dice
Any two dice combination

3. Three Dice Total
Any specified total from 4 to 17

4. Small
Player wins if total is between 4 and 10

5. Big
Player wins if total is between 11 and 17

6. Triple
Any specified 3 of a kind

7. Any Triple
Any 3 of a kind

8. Any Double
Any pair
