How to Play Sic Bo on 6proclub: Every Bet on the Board Explained
Sic Bo is a three-dice game with one of the busiest boards in the casino. Learn Small/Big, singles, doubles, triples and exact totals — what each pays, and how to verify the roll.
Sic Bo — "precious dice," also called Tai Sai — is an ancient Chinese dice game with one of the busiest betting boards in the casino. Three dice tumble out of a shaker, and the whole board settles at once: every bet you placed either hits or it doesn't, all on the same roll. It looks intimidating because there are so many cells, but each one is just a simple question about three dice. On 6proclub the shaker rattles, the lid lifts, and the round resolves against a seed you can verify.
Here's every bet on the board and what it pays.
How a round works
- Put chips on any cells you like — you can cover as many as you want on a single roll.
- The three dice are shaken and revealed together.
- Every cell is checked against those three dice at once. Winners pay, everything else loses.
- Clear the board or leave your chips and roll again.
There are no decisions after the roll and no drawing — one throw of three dice settles the entire board.
The even-money bets: Small and Big
The bets most players start on:
- Small — the three dice total 4 to 10. Pays 1:1.
- Big — the three dice total 11 to 17. Pays 1:1.
The catch that makes these fair rather than a true coin flip: any triple loses both Small and Big. So even though 4-10 and 11-17 look like they split the range evenly, a rolled triple (like 3-3-3) sweeps both — that's where the house edge on these bets lives. Odd and Even work the same way and also pay 1:1, losing on any triple.
Single-number bets
Pick a number 1 through 6 and bet it appears among the three dice. The payout scales with how many dice show it:
- Shows on one die — 1:1
- Shows on two dice — 2:1
- Shows on all three — 3:1
One chip, three chances to hit — the most beginner-friendly bet on the board.
Doubles and triples
This is where the payouts get big and the odds get long:
- Specific Double — a chosen pair appears, e.g. two 5s. Pays 10:1.
- Any Triple — all three dice match, any number. Pays 30:1.
- Specific Triple — all three dice show your exact number, e.g. three 4s. Pays 180:1 — the single biggest payout on the board, and the rarest outcome (a 1-in-216 shot).
Exact-total bets
You can also bet the precise sum of the three dice, and the payout tracks how hard that total is to roll. Totals in the middle are common and pay least; the extremes are rare and pay most:
- 4 or 17 — 60:1
- 5 or 16 — 30:1
- 6 or 15 — 17:1
- 7 or 14 — 12:1
- 8 or 13 — 8:1
- 9, 10, 11 or 12 — 6:1
Notice the symmetry: 4 and 17 are equally hard (one exact dice combination each), so they pay the same, and the payouts fall as the totals get more common toward the middle.
Where the return comes from
Every Sic Bo bet is priced off the exact dice math — there are 216 equally likely outcomes for three dice, and each cell's payout is set against how many of those 216 it wins on. The gap between the true odds and the posted payout is the house edge, and it varies cell to cell: the even-money Small/Big bets are among the tightest, while the flashy Specific Triple carries the largest margin for the biggest prize. Nothing here is adjustable or hidden — the paytable above is the whole game, and each roll is independent of the last.
Provably fair — verify the roll
All three dice are drawn from the round's committed seed, so you can prove the throw wasn't rigged:
- Before the roll, the server publishes a SHA-256 hash of its secret seed.
- The three dice faces are derived from
serverSeed : clientSeed : noncethrough a published algorithm. - After the roll, the seed is revealed. You hash it, confirm it matches the commitment, and recompute the exact three dice you saw tumble out.
The shaker can't produce a different result than the seed dictates. The same commit-reveal protocol runs across every game — see Provably Fair Cash-Out Games for the full method.

In one paragraph
Sic Bo settles three dice against a whole board at once: even-money Small (4-10) and Big (11-17) that both lose on any triple, single-number bets paying 1:1/2:1/3:1 by how many dice match, Specific Double at 10:1, Any Triple at 30:1, Specific Triple at 180:1, and exact totals paying 6:1 up to 60:1 as they get rarer. Every payout is priced off the 216 possible dice combinations, and all three dice come from a seed you can verify after the roll.
