ABSTRACT:
A method of playing a dice game is provided of the type wherein points are accumulated based upon the scores received for various combinations of numerical values displayed from a roll or throw of a plurality of dice, and by increasing a thrown score and deducting from or adding to the accumulated score this increased score based upon a roll of a die. The dice game comprises the steps of: providing six playing dice; providing a bonus die having six faces, three faces having "DOUBLE" marked thereon and three faces having "TRIPLE" marked thereon; establishing an initial order of play; initiating play by throwing the playing dice for displaying a side of each die, wherein each player in turn throws the dice in an attempt to achieve a score of 10,000 points to be declared a winner; wherein upon reaching a score of 650 points a player may choose to "dare," whereby, the player throws the bonus die and doubles or triples the thrown score as indicated by the displayed face of the bonus die, and the player throws a playing die, whereupon throwing a one or a five the player adds the increased thrown score to the accumulated score and whereupon throwing a two, three, four or six the player deducts the increased thrown score from the accumulated score.
