Sicbo looks intimidating the first time because the table is covered in boxes. It is three dice and a list of things that might happen to them, and each box is one of those things with its own payout printed on it. Joker123's version is a single-player RNG table with one bet range, 0.50 to 250.00, chosen on the SELECT BET SETTINGS screen when it opens.

The layout, row by row

Top corners: SMALL and BIG. Small wins on a total of 4 to 10, Big on 11 to 17. Both pay 1:1 and both lose if any triple appears.

Next to them: EACH DOUBLE, 10:1. Pick a specific pair, for example two 3s. At least two dice must show that number.

Centre: triples. The two blocks marked 180:1 are specific triples (three 5s, say). The small middle box, 30:1, is any triple.

The number row: totals. The sum of the three dice. The layout pays 4 at 61:1, 5 at 30:1, 6 at 17:1, 7 at 12:1, 8 at 8:1, 9 to 12 at 6:1, 13 at 8:1, 14 at 12:1, 15 at 17:1, 16 at 30:1 and 17 at 60:1. Curiously, 4 and 17 are equally likely but are printed as 61:1 and 60:1.

Under it: TWO DICE, 5:1. Fifteen boxes with two different faces, such as 1 and 4. Both must appear.

Bottom row: single numbers ONE to SIX. 1:1 if your number appears on one die, 2:1 on two, 3:1 on three.

Above the table a strip of small dice records previous rolls. The golden bowl in the top right is the shaker.

The shaker opens on 1, 1 and 4.

The lit boxes show everything that won: SMALL (total 6), the total 6 box at 17:1, the double 1, the 1-4 two-dice combination, and the single numbers ONE and FOUR. THREE did not appear, so the chip was lost.

The HOW TO PLAY page repeats the payouts in words: one on one dice 1 to 1, two dice 5 to 1, each double 10 to 1, each triple 180 to 1, any triple 30 to 1, total point 6 to 60 to 1, Small and Big 1 to 1.

Which bets to use

Big and Small carry the smallest house edge on the table. The big numbers (specific triples, totals of 4 and 17) pay a lot because they almost never land, and the edge on them is much higher. No pattern in the history strip predicts the next roll. For a small budget, keep to Big or Small at 0.50 and only put the odd chip on a long shot for fun.

Questions players ask

What happens to Big and Small bets on a triple?

They lose. The layout says it on both boxes: 'lose if any triple appears'. That rule is where the house gets its edge on these bets.

How do the single number bets pay?

Pick a number from ONE to SIX. If it shows on one die you get 1:1, on two dice 2:1, on all three 3:1. If it does not appear you lose the bet.

Is this a live dealer game?

No. The dice are rolled by the software inside a golden shaker. There is no dealer video.
