Abstract

A dice game called "House 6" is disclosed in which the object of the games is to roll a combination containing the highest pair and the highest third dice value. Each player plays against the other players or against a designated player "Dealer". Each player and/or dealer rolls three dice, and then has the option of accepting the result of that roll, or rolling one more time. All combinations are compared to that of each player in turn and the combination with the higher value wins. If there is a Dealer or PlayerDealer, then the dealer's dice combination is compared against that of each player in succession to determine the winner between each player and the dealer.
