The History of Sic Bo
Sic Bo, meaning “precious dice” in Chinese, is an ancient game that dates back over 2,000 years. Originating in China, Sic Bo was traditionally played with carved dice and evolved into a staple of Asian gambling culture. When Chinese immigrants brought the game to the West in the 20th century, it quickly gained popularity in casinos, particularly in Macau and Las Vegas.
Unlike card-based games like baccarat or blackjack, Sic Bo relies entirely on chance, making it one of the most exciting games in any casino. The simplicity of rolling three dice combined with a variety of betting options has made Sic Bo a favourite for players seeking fast-paced action. Now, with online gaming advancements, Sic Bo can be enjoyed in real-time through live dealer casinos, allowing Canadian players at CanPlay to experience the thrill from home.
How to Play Sic Bo
Sic Bo is easy to learn, with gameplay revolving around predicting the outcome of three dice rolls. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:
Place Your Bets: Players bet on different outcomes of the three dice, such as specific numbers, totals, or combinations.
Rolling the Dice: The dealer shakes and rolls the dice in a transparent container.
Winning Outcomes: If the result matches your bet, you win based on the payout odds displayed on the table.
Collect Your Winnings: The winning bets are paid out, and a new round begins.
Sic Bo Betting Options
One of the most exciting aspects of Sic Bo is the variety of bets available. Here are the most common types:
Big/Small Bets: Betting on the total of the three dice being 4–10 (Small) or 11–17 (Big). These bets have nearly a 50/50 chance of winning.
Specific Triple (All Three Dice Match): Wagering on all three dice showing the same number (e.g., 2-2-2). This has a high payout but is rare.
Specific Double: Betting that two of the three dice will show the same number.
Total Sum Bets: Betting on the total sum of the three dice, ranging from 4 to 17. Each total has different payout odds.
Combination Bets: Betting on any two specific numbers appearing (e.g., a 2 and a 5).
Single Number Bets: Wagering that a particular number (1–6) will appear on one, two, or all three dice.
