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.

The Basics: Three Dice and a Shaker
Unlike craps, where a player physically throws two dice, Sic Bo utilizes exactly three dice to determine the outcome.
Once the dice settle, the winning areas on the table light up brightly, and payouts are distributed accordingly.
- 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
Understanding the Even-Money Bets
The "Small" bet wins if the total sum of the three dice is between 4 and 10.
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.
For instance, betting that the total sum of the dice will be exactly 4 or exactly 17 usually pays 60 to 1.
| 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 |
It perfectly combines the raw luck of the dice with the simple, elegant betting structure of classic roulette.
