Dice Games
Chuckles' Luck
In this game, the dealer rolls three cube six-sided dice. The bet is placed according to the recurrence of a single face of the dice.
| Recurrence | Odds ♣ | Pays |
|---|---|---|
| None | 125 / 216 (~58%) | None |
| 1 | 75 / 216 (~34%) | 1 times the bet |
| 2 | 15 / 216 (~7%) | 2 times the bet |
| 3 | 1 / 216 (~0.5%) | 3 times the bet |
♣: Note that while the probability of rolling at least one of a particular number is 91 / 216, the probability of rolling only one of a particular number is 75 / 216. In other words, there is a 91 / 216 chance for your number to come up at least once.
