Summary
Bluff and call bluffs about how many dice of
a certain value appear on the table. The first
player to lose all their dice loses the game,
and everyone else wins.
Setup
1. Each player takes three dice, one cup,
and one poker chip.
2. Place three dice in the middle of the table
to form the pool.
3. Place the remaining poker chips in the
middle of the table.
4. Set any remaining dice and cups back in
the box. They will not be used this game.
5. The youngest player is the starting bidder
for the round.

How to Play a Round
1. The starting bidder rolls the dice in
the pool.
2. Each player (including the starting bidder)
shakes the dice in their cup and flips the
cup upside down on the table. Players can
look at their own dice but must keep them
secret.
3. The starting bidder then bids on the number
(quantity) of dice of a certain value they
believe appears amongst all the dice on
the table, including their own and the pool.
Values on the dice are: 9, 10, Jack, Queen,
King, and Ace. The colors do not matter.
4. Play proceeds clockwise. The player
to the left of the starting bidder must
raise or call.
a. To raise the current bid, a player’s new
bid must either:
Increase the number of dice in a bid by
exactly one. The value (9, Jack, etc.) can
be anything.
Increase the value by any amount. The
number of dice must remain the same.
b. To call the current bid, the player must
declare the bidder a “liar.” All players
then reveal their dice. The player who
made the call totals up how many dice,
including the pool, match the value of
the bid. Only the player to the left of the
current bidder can call that player’s bid.
5. Play continues clockwise around
the table with each player raising the
current bid until a call is made.
6. When a call is made, if the dice:
a. Meet or exceed the current bid, the
caller loses one of their dice to the pool
and collects one poker chip.
b. Do not meet the current bid, the
bidder loses one of their dice to the
pool and collects one poker chip.
7. A new round begins, and the player to
the left of the caller is the next starting
bidder.
8. The game ends when any player loses
their last die. That player is the loser,
and everyone else wins.
Poker Chips
Poker chips act as wild dice. A player may
discard them when their bid is called to
act as a die with the value of their bid. Once
a call is made, but before players reveal
their dice, the bidder must announce that
they are using one or more of their poker
chips and discard them. Every discarded
poker chip counts as one die of the
current value.
