Straight – Five dice rolled in sequential order (1-2-3-4-5 or 2-3-4-5-6) The following Poker Dice rolls are in order from high to low:įive of a kind – All 5 dice rolled are the same numberįour of a kind – 4 dice rolled are the same numberįull house – 3 dice rolled with one number and 2 dice rolled with a different number Whoever wins the pot begins the next round. Player 4 is the final player, so they immediately win the pot. Their roll is worse than Player 2’s, so they are immediately out of the round. All other players must meet the raise in order to stay in the round. This beats Player 1’s roll, so Player 1 is immediately out of the round. They choose to raise the pot by throwing in one more chip. All other players must then throw in two chips in order to play. If the final player at the table rolls the highest combination, the round is immediately over, and they collect the pot. The player who rolled the highest combination takes the pot. The player taking their turn, having rolled the new highest valued combination, may check or raise. If a player rolls a higher valued combination, any previous players who rolled something worse are out of the round. If the player fails to roll a better combination, they immediately bust and are out of the round. For subsequent turns during a round, players are challenged to roll a better combination in order to stay in. This player must beat the previous player’s combination in order to stay in the round. Once a player’s turn is finished, the dice are passed to the next player. If a player raises, all other players must meet the raise in order to stay in the round. They may choose to check (leave the pot amount as it is), or raise (add more chips to the pot). Once a player is satisfied with their dice combination (or has rolled three times), their turn is over. During their turn, player’s may keep or reroll as many dice as they wish.

While doing so, players are trying to build the best combination possible. On a player’s turn, they may roll the dice up to three times. For example, if the player throws in a single chip, all other players must also throw a single chip into the pot if they wish to play this round. Any other player who wishes to play this round must meet the ante. THE PLAYĮach round begins the with the first player deciding the ante. While this change might be frustrating for seasoned poker veterans, the element of luck may make the game more inviting for the casual gambler. The randomness of the dice roll changes the overall strategy needed for the game and introduces more luck. Poker Dice is a fun way to play poker without the use of cards.
