The dice are standard six -sided cubes with sides numbered from 1 to 6 ( represents as a corresponding number of dots). Three dice are used and tumbled together in an hour-glass shaped cage that spins around its horizontal axis. Players place their bets by moving chips into various boxes on the table.

The cage will not start spinning until at least one bet is placed on the board . Players can click the spin button to start it as soon as they have finished placing bets.?

At that point all bets must be stood . A few seconds later the cage will stop spinning and the dice will come to the bottom of the cage . The resulting numbers are taken to the top face of each dice to identify the winning bet.

Number Bet

If you place a wager on any of the six numbered boxes in the ' Number Box ' area ( 1,2,3,4,5 or 6) you will win according to how many of the three dice come up with that number on their top surface when they come to rest. Thus if all three dice come with the number 4, any wager on the number 4 bet would be paid 10 to 1. You can bet on as many individual number as you like .
