the next round. In palaco rounds, ones are allowed for an opening bid and

they are not wild. Also during a palaco round, players may not increase the

number on the dice from the opening bid. (For example: if a palaco opens

with 2 threes, then the number must remain three. Subsequent players must

bid either 3 threes, 4 threes, 5 threes, etc.) When there are only two players

remaining in the game the palaco rules are waived. e last person with dice

wins the game.

STRATEGY:

• Basic poker strategy should be followed. Try not to “tell” your blus

(give a sign that you are blung).

• Try not to blu too oen. It is best to keep your opponents o guard by

blung one time and then playing straight the next.

• Keep track of how many dice have been pulled from the game (and by

whom). e odds of a number showing up decrease every time a die is

pulled from the game.

SET UP: Each player receives one dice cup and five dice. OBJECTIVE: Outbid, outbluff and outlast your opponents to be the last player with dice in his/her cup. GAME PLAY: Players role one die to determine who goes first. The player with the highest role makes the opening bid and play continues to the left (clockwise). Together, each using five dice, all players shake their cups and “lay down” their rolls making sure to shield their dice from all other players’ view.

When increasing the quantity of dice a player may bid a lower value. For example: If a player bids 3 threes the next player may bid 4 twos. To increase the number on the dice, a player must bid the same or greater quantity than the last player’s bid. (In our example, 6 fives were bid. To increase the dice number, a player would have to bid at least 6 sixes.) In Front Porch Classics Liar’s Dice, ones are considered wild and can be used as any number.
