                        Dice Poker

Players:

  • Can be played with 2 or 3 players or 2 or 3 teams of 2

Object of the Game:

  • For a player or team of players to line up five chips in a row on the board to form a "run".
  • The first player or team to create two runs’ wins!

 

How to Play:

  • A player begins his turn by rolling all five dice. The combination of the dice facing up is to be read like cards in a poker hand. Viable hands include full house, straight, five of a kind, four of a kind, three of a kind, two pairs and one pair.
  • A player may throw the dice up to three times per turn to roll the best possible combination.
  • After their first roll, the player can then choose to pull out dice and set aside or roll anything from one to five of the dice.
  • On your second and third rolls you can again roll one to five of the dice, including re-rolling anything you had set aside in the first roll. After the third roll, place a poker chip of your team’s color on the board that corresponds to the poker hand combination of dice.
  • Then the next player to the left rolls the five dice to start their turn.

 

Rules:

  • If the squares of the board corresponding to the dice combination rolled is already covered by a chip, then that player's turn is over, and they cannot play a chip on the game board. Note: there are usually two of each possible combination on the board.
  • When a player or team places five chips in a row on the board this constitutes a run. Chips in a run are protected during the remainder of the game. A player's run may share common chips with their other runs; however, a player cannot claim a new run by adding chips to the end of an established run. A new run must contain at least 4 chips not in common with the original run.
  • The first player or team to create two runs on the board wins.
  • When playing with 3 players or teams, first run of 5 wins

 

Special Rules:

Center square: Can be used by all players as part of a run but cannot be claimed by any one player.

 

Lucky 7: Anytime a player rolls a combination of the five dice so that the face value adds up to seven, a player has the option to place a chip on either Luck 7 or whatever other combination appears on the dice (full house, three of a kind, etc.)

 

Lucky 11: Anytime a player rolls a combination of the five dice so that the face value adds up to eleven, a player has the option to place a chip on either Luck 11 or whatever other combination appears on the dice (full house, three of a kind, etc.)

 

Five of a Kind: Anytime a player rolls a five of a kind, that player may place their chip on ANY open square on the game board. Wild!

 

Bouncer:

  • After all the "straight" squares on the game board are filled, every time you roll another straight, the result is a "bouncer".  A bouncer allows the player to remove any one opponent’s chip from game board except a chip that has been placed in an already completed run.
  • After all the "full house" squares on the game board are filled, every time you roll another full house, the result is a "bouncer".  A bouncer allows the player to remove any one opponent’s chip from game board except a chip that has been placed in an already completed run.

 

You can not underscore: 

  • If you have rolled a full house but only needed 2 pairs, you can not use the full house as the pairs. You can try and roll out of the full house. This goes for any combination.
