Seven rounds are played with each player throwing the dice in turn.  In each turn a player has three throws of the dice.  After their first throw a player may declare which category they are throwing for.  If they don't declare the category they must roll all five dice again in their second throw. 

Once a category has been declared they put aside the dice they wish to use and roll the remaining ones in their subsequent throw(s).  Any further dice thrown for that category would also be put aside. 

Players score points after their third and final throw by multiplying their category number (1 through to 6) by the number of dice that show this number, or by scoring 20 points for a Hooligan.  A Hooligan is a straight; either 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.  Should a player roll five dice showing their category number before their final throw, they score with them and roll all five dice again and continue to score for any more dice that subsequently show their number.
