Like all of the best games, playing sic bo online is pretty straightforward. Simply choose an online casino, sign up, pick your sic bo game, place your bets and watch those virtual dice roll.

Now this is a question everyone should be asking themselves when they sit down at any online casino. And the answer is yes, but only when you're playing with a reputable casino. Make sure you find sites with licenses for your jurisdiction, player reviews and secure payment options. If you're unsure, simply don't sign up to that site.

No, they're not. If you've playing sic bo in a bricks and mortar casino, the experience is going to be pretty similar online too. There might be slight variations depending on where you play, but in essence it'll be the same.

Select your stake, click on the bet type and then click “roll” or “play”, depending on your platform.

Online casinos employ random number generators to make sure the outcomes are unbiased.

In sic bo, the least risky bets are those with the smallest house edge. That means the casino has only a slight advantage over the player. These bets give you the best chance of winning, but also have the lowest payouts.

Big, small, odd and even bets all offer a 1:1 payout and have a house edge of 2.78%

The Specific Triple, also known as Triple or Alls, has the highest payout in sic bo. In this bet, you're predicting that all three dice will land on one specific number.

The payouts for these bets can be as high as 180:1 (although some casinos have them at 150:1). However, the chances of you actually hitting this bet are only 1 in 216, giving you not very good odds of scooping that delicious payout.
