Dice Games

In relative scaling of complexity…

Gambling games

Cho-han (even/odd)

Two dice are rolled beneath a cup. Players bet on whether the result will be “cho” (even) or “han” (odd). Basically a 50/50 game. Boring.

Cee-lo (4-5-6)

A bit more complex than cho-han, using three dice, and each round can consist of multiple rolls.

First, a banker declares a stake; players match as much of it as they can. If players cannot fully match the bank's stake, banker pockets the difference that he initially wagered. Payout is 1:1 based on player stakes.

Dealer rolls to either win, lose, or set a point. If banker doesn't instantly win or lose (i.e., a point has been set), the dice are then passed to players, who individually try to beat the banker. If the banker instantly loses (players “break the bank”), the role of banker rotates to the player left of the current banker. Otherwise, if a player wins via 4-5-6 or a triple, they become the next banker after the round conclude.

Result Meaning
Triple Instant win
4-5-6 Instant win
Pair + 6 Instant win
3-2-1 Instant loss
Pair + 1 Instant loss
Pair + X Player earns “X” points; total is matched against dealer
Other Reroll until a valid combination occurs.

Craps (street)

Everyone knows this one:

A gambler is passed the dice, becoming “the shooter”. The shooter either bets that he will win (“pass”) or lose (“don't pass”). One or more players must match the shooter's wager. If additional people want to wager, or players want to wager more money, they must match each other's bets and take a side, “pass” or “don't pass”. Then, the rolling separates into two phases. Similar to Cee-lo, the shooter either instantly wins, loses, or sets a point; if a point has been set, the shooter keeps re-rolling until 7 (loss) or the point (win) come up again. As long as the shooter wagers correctly, he can keep rolling the dice. Otherwise, pass dice to the left.

Phase one
Result Meaning
2, 3, 12 Loss.
7, 11 Win.
4-6, 8-10 A “point” is set
Phase two
Result Meaning
7 Loss.
Point Win.
Other Reroll until game is won or lost .
