Sic Bo Odds
In Sic Bo we realize the most important thing should be the bets. In order to place the right bet you need to know the odds for the game. In the table below we are looking at the odds against winning certain bets to better help you choose your course of action. If you are someone not willing to risk a lot then you should already know the small and big bets are where you want to stay. For others who like to take a little more risk there are other odds to try. Just remember that this table while it can help you, will not show you how to win a hundred percent of the time. It just shows you the possibilities.

In the table above you should recognize the house edge. That is the edge in which the house will beat you. The higher the house edge the worse the bet is going to be. We have looked at several possibilities in this table for potential dice outcomes. What you should also realize is that we included some of the very specific bets so you could see your chances of winning.
The table supports that Sic Bo is a completely random game, meaning you could win in certain circumstances if you place the right bet; however it is too hard to predict the outcome.
Sic Bo should not be based on finding patterns by studying the rolls of the dice in previous rounds. Instead if you want to win with any kind of hope, the big and small bets offer the best odds. This is still a guessing game though.
The big or small bet is on the total the dice will yield. You can assume certain parameters for this, but your assumptions could be false throwing off your win. You should also understand the combinations three dice can make. The more combinations the three dice can make for one number the better the odds of winning for that particular bet.
