Number of dice: Five Ante: 1 Unit Object of game: To obtain as low a score as possible, zero being perfect. METHOD OF PLAY

In this game a 3 counts as zero, all other numbers count at face value. A player’s score is the total spots showing on the dice when he finishes his turn, excluding threes. Players roll in succession as follows: All five dice are rolled, and the player must leave at least one out but may leave more at his discretion. (He can stop on his first roll if he so wishes.) Those not kept are rolled again and at least one left out, and so on until all the dice are out. A player discontinues his turn if his score goes above that of a preceding player.
