While Craps dominates the dice tables in Western casinos, Sic Bo holds that prestigious title throughout Asia.

However, despite the complex appearance of the betting board, Sic Bo is actually incredibly simple to play.

The Basics: Three Dice and a Shaker

In land-based casinos, the three dice are housed inside a sealed glass dome and mechanically shaken by the dealer.

Players place their chips on the beautifully illuminated betting layout before the dealer activates the mechanical shaker.

• The pace of play is generally very fast and exciting
• It is heavily featured in Asian-themed online live casinos
• Payouts vary wildly depending on the specific probability of the bet

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.

While these bets are incredibly exciting, they come with a significantly higher house edge than the standard Big/Small wagers.

It perfectly combines the raw luck of the dice with the simple, elegant betting structure of classic roulette.
