gold coins. There is also a massage parlor tent and a beach at the north of the resort near the shore where clothing is optional.
You can get A Mug of Fortune's Fire Grog from one of the Drinks Girls if you feel like refreshing yourself at the end of a day spent on the beach. Only the dice games are open at the moment which can be played inside the white & blue tent.
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.
Hi-Middle-Lo
In this game, the dealer rolls three cube six-sided dice. The bet is placed according to the total of the three dice:
| Low | High | ||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 |
| Outside | Middle | Outside | |||||||||||
Note that the house wins on three of a kind, especially on 3 and 18. While High, Low and Medium pays even (2:1), Outside pays quintuple times (5:1). It might seem Outside is the best bet, paying 5:1 on a win, but there is in fact less than 1 in 5 chance (36/216 to be exact, not 38/216 since the house wins on all 2s and 5s) for the total to be any of these numbers. If we check the probability density function:
High and Low are the best bets both having 105/216 chance while Medium has 98/216.
Note that the chances above are calculated after removing the chances for three of a kinds within the bets' range. As an example, there is 100/216 chance for the sum be within the range of Medium (9, 10, 11 and 12) but the house wins for all 3s and 4s, reducing the chance to 98/216.
