Playing 10 the Classic Gambling Dice Game

Hi my name is Carlos Ramos Jr. coming to you on behalf of Expert Village and today we are talking about a variety of games that you could played with dice. The next game we are going to talk about is a game called 10. Now this is a ancient Romans gambling game. There is rumors that it was played by centurions for Christ's garments at his crucification. I'm not sure how true that rumor is, but the game is played with 3 dice and stakes. Now, each player takes turn being the bank. Now, the player's bet of the outcome of the dice. So for example, I'm the bank verses this player here okay. This player lays down a quarter bet I match that quarter as a bet. If that person drops less then 10 which he did 5,6,7,8 he has to pay the bank and he becomes the bank. You will see why it is a disadvantaged to be the bank. Now he plays the bank. If the total is 10 or more as we did here 13,14, sorry the bank has to pay it out. So the total roll is 10 or more then the bank looses and pays equal amount ever 10 or less then the player loses. But, 3 dice is pretty hard to roll under a 10 that is a disadvantage to be the bank. So there is the game of 10.
