Sic Bo History
Sic Bo, meaning "dice pair" is an ancient Chinese game. Today it is one of the lesser known casino games and is often confined to designated rooms for Asian games. The game uses three dice and a table with a variety of betting options on the roll of those dice. The odds and table layout may also vary from place to place.
Although Sic Bo has been very popular in Asian for a long time, it is a relatively new addition to the casinos of Las Vegas and Atlantic City. The basis of Sic Bo is very simple but the payouts are not the best. The Sic Bo table consists of areas where you can place your bet on the outcome of the dice. The winning areas of the Sic Bo table light up, which is considered by many the biggest attraction to the game. Sic bo is very similar to a popular English game known as Grand Hazard.
