A player rolls all three dice simultaneously into the bowl. If a die falls out of the bowl, it is an automatic loss and the player must pay the full amount of potch wagered. The aim of the game is to get two dice to land on the same number. The remaining number will be that player's 'score'. This score is compared to the score of the other player and the highest scoring individual wins. | A player rolls all three dice simultaneously into the bowl.

If both players end up with the same score, or fail to make any score at all after three attempts each, it's called a draw and neither one of them wins. No money changes hands in this situation. | If both players end up with the same score, or fail to make any score at all after three attempts each, it's called a draw and neither one of them wins.
