i play this dice game with my friends, i dont know if it has a name but it works like this, everyone puts in two bills whether its 2 $1 bills, $5 bills, $20 bills or whatever

you roll to see who goes first like high number goes first

you have to roll a die for each bill you have in front of you

if you roll a 1,2,3 that bill is safe, if you roll a 4 you pass that bill to the left, if you roll a 5 you pass that bill to the right, if you roll a 6 you put that bill into the pot in the middle

once only one person has bills left in front of him, he has to roll a safe for each bill he has in front of him, then he can roll for the pot, if he rolls a safe then, he wins all the money

31 is also a fun gambling game if youre familiar with that

I really like the sound of this game. Thanks for your post.

Could you please explain a little? When you have the one shooter left, if he rolls a 4, 5, or 6 what happens? Is it as normal - so no player leaves the game just because he temporarily has no bills in front of him?

A further clarification: is it a single roll for the pot and if no 1, 2 or 3 appears it gets split equally?

everyones still in the game even if they have no bills in front of them, say im rolling for the pot but roll a 4 or a 5 then i pass the bill in that direction

now lets say i had two bills in front of me and no one else has any bills in front of them, i roll a safe for each, then i roll for the pot and i roll a 6

well then i put one of those bills into the pot, then since no one else has any bills in front of them, then i go again, i have to roll a safe for the bill i have in front of me, then i can roll for the pot again

now lets say i only have one bill in front of me, the rest is in the pot, if i roll a 6 and that dollar goes into the pot, then its a rollover, no one wins, and we start all over again

im suprised no one has mentioned backgammon yet

thats a great game to gamble on

darts is also fun, i just play for pitchers of beer usually

and even if you lose you'll most likely get a free beer from the pitcher anyways

if you dont like wasting money on the dart machines, me and my friend came up with a game, we call it around the world, just unplug the machine so it doesnt make all those noises

you start on 20, then if you hit it, you go to 19, 18, and so forth down to 1, and then finally the bullseye

if you hit a triple, you skip two numbers, if you hit a double you skip one number, lets say you hit a triple 20, then you skip 19 and 18 and go to 17, or if you hit a double 20, you skip 19, and go to 18

bags and horseshoes are another good bar game to bet pitchers on

if anyone is interested this is how you play the game of 31

everyone puts 3 bills in front of them, each player then gets dealt 3 cards

the goal of the game is to get as close to 31 as possible adding together cards of the same suit

when its your turn, you can take the top card of the discard pile and discard a card, or you can discard a card and take the top card of the deck

when you have an amount 21 or over, instead of drawing a card or taking one from the top of the discards, you can knock instead, then everyone else has one turn to try to improve their hand

the player with the worst hand has to then throw a bill in the middle, if two players tie for the worst hand, they both have to throw a bill in the middle

when only one person is left with bills in front of him, he collects all the money in the pot

some variations include if you have trips, theyre worth 30.5 points, if you have trip aces, theyre worth 32 points

'Round the World' is a popular enough darts game back in Blighty... except you go from 1-20 then bullseye. I'm crap at darts, but did once get from 18 to out in 2 darts... much to annoyance of the female darts hustler I was playing with who still owes me for getting that lucky shot.

This reminded me: I have gambled on Knockout Kings, the boxing simulation game on Playstation 2. Not in your league though.

That is pretty impressive, I love that game but never reached anywhere near those levels. Now I used to have a Ms Pacman in my living room for a couple of years and memorized the patterns on it, I'm still mighty good at that machine.
