Sic Bo is a casino table game played with three dice. The objective of the game is for players to make bets based on the resultant total sum of the three dice.
Once the time is up, the three dice will be set in motion and tumbled around within a mechanical contraption for a few seconds. The outcome is the sum of the dice values derived from the sides facing up.
In the event that the result is ambiguous such as the dice not properly facing up or if the dice are overlapping, the result shall be considered void. Another roll of the dice is performed.
When the dice roll results in a "Triple" ie each die has the value of the same number, then bets on Big/Small & Odd/Even shall be considered losing bets regardless of the total value of the dice.
