Sic Bo started as a street dice game, and the casino version keeps the three dice and gives you a grid so dense it looks like a spreadsheet. This guide is independent and not run by BDBAJEE. We could not confirm Sic Bo at BDBAJEE when we checked on 7 November 2026, so look at the live section directly. Here is how the game generally works and which bets deserve your attention.
The basic idea
Three dice are shaken and the layout shows every bet you can place on the result. Totals run from three to eighteen. The dealer or an automatic shaker rolls the dice, and winning bets are paid in the same instant.
The main bets
Each bet covers some part of the possible outcomes. The more narrowly it covers, the more it pays and the less often it lands.
- Big and Small: total of 11 to 17 or 4 to 10, usually losing if the three dice show the same number.
- Single number: pays more when that number shows on one, two or three dice.
- Pairs and combinations: two specific numbers appear together.
- Specific totals: the sum of the dice, with large payouts for rare totals.
- Triples: any triple or a chosen triple, which pay the most.
Which bets cost less
Big and Small and single-number bets cost less per bet than total bets and triples, in most versions. The triple rule is the reason: Big and Small lose when a triple appears, which gives the house its edge on those bets. Exact payouts can vary by table, so use the table's rules panel instead of a remembered table from a website. Payout tables are set by the provider and can differ even between two tables in the same lobby.
Because there is no skill involved, the only decisions you control are which bets to place, how much to stake and when to leave. Make all three before the first roll, and write the stake down if you are inclined to drift upward.
Playing it sensibly
The grid invites spreading chips over many spots, which raises the amount at risk per round without raising your chance of winning. Pick a small number of bets and keep the total per round at your budget unit. The dice have no memory, so ignoring the history of recent rolls is a good habit. For a gentler pace, roulette has a similar layout idea, and the live casino hub lists the rest.
