October 2, 2009

Sic Bo is an ancient and traditional dice game that has been played since ages in china and has spread out and become popular throughout the world in the last few years. Most of the best online casinos and gaming websites today offer Sic Bo to be played online. Sic Bo is played with three dices and the objective of the game is to predict the outcome of the three dice. Players need to bet on the outcome and when the dice are rolled the players can win if the outcome is right.
Some of the basic guidelines and rules of playing the game are as listed below:

Players can choose from a small or big Sic Bo bet. If the total of the dice is from 4 to 10 the players win the small bet and if the total is from 11 to 18 the player can win the big bet.

In the Sic Bo number bet, the player can bet on one particular number from 1 to 6 and the player can win the bet depending on how many times that particular number appears on the dice.

Players can also place a bet on any of the two number combinations of numbers from 1 to 6.

In the Sic Bo total bet the player can bet on the total sum of the three dice.

The payouts of the Sic Bo will vary according to the type of bet placed. For a Sic Bo small and big bet the payout is 1:1. In a number bet if your chosen number shows up two times you win twice the money, thrice the amount of bet if it shows up three times and so on. In a Sic Bo pair bet the payout can be up to 5 times the original bet. And in the total bet the payout will depend upon the total of the number betted upon, it can be anywhere from 6:1 to 60:1.

Sic Bo is a fairly simple game but as is the nature of this game it is entirely dependent on luck. However few tips that are listed below can help you win your bets at this fun game:

If you are new at Sic Bo it is recommended that you stick to low payout bets where the payouts are 1:1. Starting off new and betting at higher payout games is not advisable since the odds are too high at winning.

While betting on small or big Sic Bo bets it is better to stick to totals of 9, 10, 11 and 12. Even though the payout is small for these numbers the probability of their winning is quite high.

If you really wish to earn lots of money at one go place a bet on a three of a kind bet like 2-2-2 or 6-6-6. Even though the chances of winning are very less this can be tried out. The payout for a three of a kind win is 180:1 which is a very high payout and worth the risk.
