Definitions

  • This invention relates to a gaming table with side bets and has been devised particularly though not soley for playing the ancient Chinese game of Sic Bo, also known as Tai Sai, whereby wages are made on the outcome of the roll of three dice.
  • the game of Sic Bo is typically played in casinos where various tables and graphic layouts are provided for the placing of bets on the outcome of the roll of three dice.
  • bets may typically include bets on the total number shown on the sum of the three dice, various combinations of two dice, bets on various triple outcomes such as three fours or three sixes and bets on whether the total number shown on the three dice is a big number between eleven and seventeen inclusive or a small number between four and ten inclusive, or whether the total on the three dice is an even number or an odd number.
  • the present invention seeks to enhance the game of Sic Bo by the provision of additional betting options.
  • the present invention provides a game whereby wagers are made on the outcome of the roll of three dice, including the option of placing one or more bets on a successive run of predetermined outcomes.
  • the outcome of the roll of the three dice is determined according to the rules generally applied in the ancient Chinese game of Sic Bo.
  • said one or more bets are known as side bets.
  • one said side bet is on the predetermined outcome of whether the sum of the numbers on the three dice is an even or odd number.
  • one said side bet is on the predetermined outcome of whether the sum of the numbers on the three dice is a big number between eleven and seventeen inclusive or a small number between four and ten inclusive.
  • a bet on a successive ran of predetermined outcomes is paid on five or more consecutive identical outcomes.
  • the odds paid out on a winning bet on a successive ran of predetermined outcomes increase for each identical outcome beyond five.
  • the present invention provides a gaming table incorporating areas on which players can place gaming chips representing bets for the playing of a game as described in any one or more of the preceding paragraphs.
  • the areas are selectively lit to represent successful bets resulting from the outcome of the roll of the three dice.
  • the table includes one or more areas for placing bets on a successive ran of predetermined outcomes, known as side bets.
  • the areas for placing side bets comprise charts with progressive sub- areas indicating progress along a successive ran of identical predetermined outcomes.
  • the progressive sub-areas indicate odds to be paid out to players once five progressive sub-areas have indicated the predetermined outcome.
  • the progressive sub-areas in the side bet charts are lit as long as the successive ran of identical predetermined outcomes continues.
  • the sub-areas on a side bet chart are lit in a flashing manner once the preceding ran of identical predetermined outcomes has been broken, indicating that new bets can now be placed on the alternative predetermined outcome.
  • Fig. l is a representation of the graphics on a gaming table set up to play a game according to the invention
  • Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of a portion of Fig. 1 showing a portion of the gaming table representing a side bet chart according to the invention
  • Fig. 3 is a similar view to Fig. 2 showing an alternative side bet chart from the gaming table shown in Fig. 1.
  • the traditional game of Sic Bo is played on a gaming table surface represented by the area shown at 10 in Fig. 1 augmented by an additional area shown at 11 which allows for the placing of side bets on a successful run of identical predetermined outcomes.
  • the two side bets shown in the accompanying drawings and described hereafter are firstly whether the outcome of the sum of the three numbers showing on the rolled dice will be big, i.e. between 11 and 17 inclusive, or small i.e. between 4 and 10 inclusive.
  • the second side bet shown in the accompanying drawings is on a successive run of identical predetermined outcomes on whether the total shown on the three dice is an odd number or an even number.
  • successive run of identical predetermined outcomes is typically referred to as a "streak".
  • five or more successive odd numbers rolled on the three dice would constitute an odd streak and five or more successive outcomes where the total of the three numbers shown on the dice are between 11 and 17 would constitute a big streak.
  • Odd/Even Streak and the Big/Small Streak bets are placed on two separate charts 12 and 13 respectively located adjacent to the main Sic Bo betting area 10.
  • Patrons participate in the Streak bets by placing a gaming chip on the appropriate Streak chart at the appropriate time.
  • a Streak wager By placing a Streak wager, a patron is effectively wagering that at least the next four consecutive results (Odd/Even or Big/Small) will be the same as the result for which the patron placed the wager.
  • the patron is wagering that this is the start of a "streak" or "run” of Big/Small or Odd/Even results, and that the streak will continue for at least the next four games after this game.
  • a “Small” result occurs when the total of the three dice is between four and ten inclusive, except where a triple result has been thrown. Triple two and triple three therefore do not result in a Small result.
  • a “Big” result occurs when the total of the three dice is between eleven and seventeen inclusive, except where a triple result has been thrown. Triple four and triple five therefore do not result in a big result.
  • Streak bets may only be placed at the termination of a streak or run. In other words, if the result of the previous game was Big and the result of the current game is Small, or vice versa, then the previous streak has ended and this marks the beginning of a new streak. Patrons may only make a Streak wager at such a "changeover”. Whilst in the midst of a streak, no wagers are won or lost, and players may not make additional streak wagers.
  • the Big/Small and Odd/Even Streak side bets are independent of each other. A changeover from Big to Small (or vice versa) can occur in the middle of an Odd or Even streak, and vice versa. Under some circumstances, both Streak bets will terminate (and therefore changeover) simultaneously.
  • patrons may place a Streak bet by placing a gaming chip on the appropriate part of the gaming layout during the "Place Your Bets" phase of the game. This is typically shown on an electronic gaming table by lighting the relevant side bet chart in a flashing manner. As the streak progresses, the number of successive identical predetermined outcomes (e.g. big or small; odd or even) is shown by progressive sub-areas such as 14 and 15 in Fig.2, or 16, 17, 18, 19 in Fig. 3, being lit.
  • progressive sub-areas such as 14 and 15 in Fig.2, or 16, 17, 18, 19 in Fig. 3, being lit.
  • the end of a streak denotes the start of a new streak - the opposite streak.
  • the Big/Small Streak loses - dealer takes all chips off the Big/Small Streak area.
  • Odd/Even streak continues, and moves into a winning phase. Even if the next game loses, patrons who placed a water on Odd/Even back in game 2 are assured of a win when the streak eventually terminates.
  • the Odd/Even Streak is still active so it cannot have more bets placed on it.
  • Game 9 Patrons place bets on Odd/Even Streak (as this is the start of an Odd streak).
  • the Big/Small Streak is still active so it cannot have more bets placed on it.
  • the result is 1-4-6 (total 11, Big and Odd). Both Streak bets continue.
  • the game of Sic Bo is enhanced by the provision of side bets on runs or streaks of predetermined successive outcomes, giving greater options and enjoyment to the players.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un jeu perfectionné de Sic Bo et une table de jeu offrant à un joueur la possibilité de placer des mises parallèles sur une série successive de résultats prédéterminés. Les mises parallèles portent généralement sur le point de savoir si la somme des nombres figurant sur trois dés est un nombre pair ou un nombre impair représenté par un tableau latéral (12) supplétif d'une table typique de Sic Bo (10) ou si la somme des nombres figurant sur les trois dés est un grand nombre inclusif compris entre onze et dix-sept et un petit nombre inclusif compris entre quatre et dix indiqués dans un tableau latéral (13). Les gains sont en général payés au joueur lorsqu'il y a une série d'au moins cinq résultats identiques consécutifs dans les tableaux latéraux (12) ou (13) dans les cases où les mises ont été placées. Les tableaux latéraux (12) et (13) peuvent être configurés pour clignoter lorsque des mises parallèles sont placées et qu'aucune autre mise parallèle ne peut ensuite être placée tant que la série n'a pas été interrompue et qu'une autre série commence.
