Threes Also known as Tripps. This is a simple gambling game, played with five dice. A popular street game played makeshift in alleyways or living rooms. Play:Each player antes one betting unit (usually a dollar, pound, euro, etc) into the pot and they then take their turns throwing the dice. The object of the game is to score the lowest amount by adding up the values of all five dice but counting 3s as zeroes. Each player rolls all five dice and sets aside the ones he wishes to keep. A player can keep as many as he wants, but must keep at least one die in each roll. Once a dice is set aside it is eliminated and may not be rolled again. The best possible score after all the dice have been set aside is 0 (3-3-3-3-3), but should any player roll 6-6-6-6-6 ("Shooting the Moon"), they win instantly with no further play In the event of equally low scores, tied players ante an additional unit into the pot and play again. The winner rolls first in the next game.. |
