Double or nothing

Abstract

The concept of Double or Nothing presents a totally new game with dice. Two types of dice are utilized: the two regular six-sided cubes plus two eight-sided octahedrons, these select at a specific play a lucky player whose winnings are doubled, or he may receive a bonus. An LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) Counter Screen is introduced. It is manually operated by the Boxman, it keeps track of points accumulated to reach exact count of 11 or 21. Every bet is also identified with its own color for easy reference in placing bets or calling them a win or a loss. For the first time seven bets are introduced: GOAL EVEN ODD MORE THAN 7/LESS THAN 7 2 in a Row and 3 in a Row with pay offs more attractive for the players.

1 ) New in Double or Nothing is the concept that each one of the players take turns rolling the dice in left to right rotation, following the sequence of the numbers 1 through 14 which identify the chip racks on the table railing. Every bet has been allocated its own color name for easy reference, plus seven new bets are introduced for the first time: GOAL EVEN ODD MORE THAN 7/LESS THAN 7 2 in a Row and 3 in a Row. 
     
     
         2 ) Innovative in Double or Nothing is the play of the two octahedrons eight-sided dice, it occurs when a player has accumulated an exact count of 11 or 21 in the Counter Screen, its action selects a lucky player whose highest winning bet is doubled or he is paid a bonus if he does not have any winning bet. 
     
     
         3 ) A very special function has been assigned to the number 7 the first 7 rolled by the shooter is called an easy 7 and counts ONLY as an odd number result, the next 7 rolled is called a hard 7 and it signals that ALL bets lose, except those four bets made on Any 7, HARD 7 TO WIN, 2 in a Row and 3 in a Row. Thereafter every 7 rolled is either an easy 7 or a hard 7.
