Lightning Bac Bo Live from Evolution

This is Evolution’s Lightning Bac Bo table. It joins their live dealer Bac Bo table  which has been taking bets since 2022.

As on the original table, on Lightning Bac Bo you’re betting on the outcome of the roll of 4 dice. But on this table win payouts are boosted by the addition of random multipliers.

Lightning Bac Bo is a very simple game with a high return to player (RTP) rate provided you stick to the right bet. You can play it at major brand carrying Evolution’s games including 888, Dublinbet, Mr Green, or Stake.

How to play Lightning Bac Bo

The game premise is simple. A pair of regular dice are rolled for each of the Player (2 blue dice) and Banker (2 red dice) positions. You are betting on which side will have the highest 2-dice total. There are only 3 possible bets:

• Banker: win base payout 1:1
• Player: win a base payout 1:1
• Tie: base payout 2:1, 3:1 or 4:1 depending on the Tie value

In the case of a Tie, 90% of the value of Banker or Player bets are returned. This differs from Baccarat where a Tie results in the entire Banker or Player bets being returned.

The 10% kept by the house in Bac Bo creates the game’s house edge for Banker/Player bets.

The Lightning Fee and Multiplier

For any bet you place, a 50% lightning fee is deducted. Place a €1 chip on the bet selector and you balance drops €1.50. The fee has been added to fund multiplier-boosted payouts.

After bets close, and while the dice are bobbling around in their individual shakers, a single dice number is selected as the Lightning dice number, and assigned multiplier value of 2× to 8×.

Should the Lightning dice number result on any of the dice, that positions payout is multiplied accordingly.

In the pictured example round, a 5 results at the Banker position so the winning Banker payout is boosted from even money to a 3:1 for a €4 collect on a €1 bet.

Multipliers multiply

Had a double 5 resulted for the Banker, the payout multiplier would become 3×3 = 9×. Therefore, the top possible Banker or Player boosted payout is 64:1.

A Tie outcome brings all four dice into play and could produce a top multiplier (if uncapped) of 8×8×8×8=4,096×. Unfortunately this payout is capped at a maximum possible 1,199:1.

One final detail you will notice is that the shakers don’t stop all at once. The order is:

1. Player bottom shaker, then
2. Banker bottom shaker, then
3. Top shaker of whichever position is leading, (if even Player top shaker), then
4. remaining shaker.
