I thought I would start another discussion to talk about this game. I play this with the same group that plays Cee-Lo (mentioned in my other post). It's a super fun game!


For those not familiar, there are three dice with different images on it (Prawn; Rooster; Crab; Goldfish, etc) and a board with six circles with matching images. The dice are in a container, the "banker" shakes it three times, then the bets are placed. You can bet on as few or as many of the images you want, could be just one or all six. Then the dice are revealed and the winning bets are paid out.

I'm wondering if anyone here knows what the best strategy for this game is? I will usually bet two or three images at a time, though I've tried all kinds of bets, I've played it intuitively, I really don't know the right odds or anything. I'm sure some of you would know what the math is on this. Is it best to just bet on one image at a time? Two? Three or more? If anyone can help me figure this out it would be great!


Also, and this has to do with cheating, I was a bit worried when I first started playing these "outside the casino" games with this group, though I feel much better now since there doesn't seem to be any cheating going on, though you never really know. In CeeLo they like to use a bowl, so when you drop the dice they bounce around in there, I'm not sure how anyone would be able to control the dice in this case, but in Fish-Prawn-Crab (and Sic-Bo which we also play) the dice are in a container, they shake this container three times, the bets are placed, then the lid is lifted to reveal the results. I always feel weird about not being able to see the dice shaking in there. Is there a way to cheat or control the dice in that container? I sure hope not.


Thank you so much for any info!

I was introduced to a dice game called Cee-Lo recently that I'm really getting hooked on! I'm sure most of you here will have heard of it. I play Baccarat and Pai Gow Poker with a lot of Asians in the two casinos I usually go to, and one of my Asian casino "friends" told me about Cee-Lo and said they have regular games of it going.


I've played this a few times with a small group of 3 to 5 people and sometimes head to head. I think the game is awesome! It's a very simple game but is there anything I can learn to help with winning?


I was told that with these kinds of street dice games sometimes people will cheat with controlled rolls, or crooked dice, but these people I've played with seem very fair, the dice can be checked and we roll them onto a bowl so the dice bounce around in there, though we have used a little tray as well.


I don't think there would be any specific strategy to this game since it's just dice rolls, but if there's anything else I should know about it from you dice experts, please let me know!

I'm totally new to sports betting, but I'm interested in making some bets during the World Cup starting in June. My mom is French and we grew up with soccer in the house. I don't follow sports in general, but I always watch the world cup every four years (and the Olympics). I have an online account where I can make sports bets, but can any of you give me any tips on the best way to approach sports betting? I'm thinking of just betting on who will win on individual games but I see there are other bets that can be made. Thank you so much for any help!
