How to Play Sic Bo Live by Pragmatic Play

GAME OVERVIEW

Sic Bo is a classic version of the interesting and well-known Chinese game of chance played with three regular dice with face values 1 to 6.

The objective of the game is to predict the outcome of the three rolled dice. The game result is based on the total value of and combinations of the three dice.

The Sic Bo layout has 52 bet spots, and one or more can be covered by player bets at the same time.

Once the betting time is over, and the bets are closed, no more bets will be accepted.

The dice will then be rolled inside the Dice Shaker. The game round result is determined by adding up numerical values on the top of each of the three dice once they have come to rest.
