The Secrets of Chuck-A-Luck

Pssst...! Wanna know a secret? How about the secrets of the dice game Chuck-A-Luck? Chuck-A-Luck (also called Bird Cage) is becoming popular once again, and several casinos have a chuck-a-luck game, but it is usually found in the slot machine area rather than with the table games. Long ago, along with Hazard, it was the forerunner of craps. You may see a large dice "Bird Cage" with a handle on the side filled with three large dice. The "dealer" will announce to onlookers "The Best game there is - Three winners and three losers - Bet Just $1 - Easiest money you'll ever make!" Sounds like a good 50/50 proposition, but it's a little more complicated than that. Wanna know the secrets that dice pros use to play Chuck-A-Luck? Let's find out! Underneath the large wire Chuck-A-Luck cage is a layout vaguely reminiscent of a craps game. It is usually green, with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 printed on top. You place $1 on any of the numbers and if your number appears on any one die, you get even money. If your number appears on two dice, you get 2:1 ($2). If it appears on all three dice, you get 3:1 ($3). The game begins when all six numbers have a bet placed on them.... http://groups.google.com/group/roulettexob
