RULES FOR BAKUTO
​​
Bakuto is a simple game using a pair of dice and a dice cup, in which players bet on whether the sum of the dice will be odd or even.
SETUP

Two Six-Sided Dice - Bakuto employs six-sided dice, usually marked either with Aurebesh, Corellian or High Galactic numerals.

Dice Cup - A simple cup for shaking and overturning the dice used by the Caster.

GAMEPLAY

1. THE STAKE

Choose who goes first.  That player becomes the Caster. The Caster can set a stake to join the game, usually at least 2 credits.

1. THE SET

The Caster places the two dice in the cup, shakes the cup, and turns it over.  

3. THE WAGER

Players place their wager in turn on whether the sum total of numbers showing on the dice will be even or odd. 

WINNING THE GAME

4. THE REVEAL

The Caster then removes the cup and displays the dice. Players who wagered on the correct result (odd or even) collect the wagers against and split it equally between themselves.

A new round can then begin.  It is usually considered good manners for everyone to get at least one turn as the Caster or 'master of the cup'.
