Super Sic Bo is Evolution's live version of the ancient three-dice game, with random multipliers bolted on. A round works like classic Sic Bo: you bet on how three dice will land, an automated shaker rolls them on camera, and matching bets pay out. The 'super' part is that before each shake, a few bet spots are lit up with random multipliers reaching 1,000x, so a win on one of those spots is amplified. The best-value bet is still Big or Small at a 97.22% return; the multipliers raise the ceiling, not your long-run odds.
Key takeaways
- Best bet: Big (total 11 to 17) or Small (total 4 to 10), each paying 1:1 at a 97.22% return (a 2.78% house edge). Both lose if the three dice land as a triple.
- RTP is bet-dependent: 97.22% is the Big/Small figure. Specific totals, doubles and triples carry much higher house edges, so the headline return only applies to the simplest bets.
- The multipliers: before each shake, random multipliers up to 1,000x are placed on selected bet spots. Win a spot that's lit and your payout is multiplied; spots without a multiplier pay standard odds.
- Max win: up to 1,000x your stake, from a multiplied bet spot.
- Bankroll note: the long-odds bets (triples, single totals) pay big but lose often, which is what makes the game high variance. Big and Small are the steadiest. Set a budget; exact payouts are in the game's info panel.
Every Super Sic Bo total, in dice
The three dice add up to a total from 3 to 18. Each total is shown as one example roll, with the count of how many of the 216 combinations make it. Totals near the middle (10 and 11) have the most combinations and land most often; 3 and 18 each have only one, three 1s or three 6s, so they are the rarest.
-
Total 3
The lowest total, made a single way: three 1s. With one outcome in 216 it ties 18 as the rarest result, so it carries the top base payout.
-
Total 4
Comes only from 1, 1, 2, which lands three ways in 216. A long shot, paid accordingly.
-
Total 5
Built from 1-1-3 or 1-2-2, six ways in all. Still firmly in the rare, high-paying tier.
-
Total 6
Ten ways, from 1-1-4 and 1-2-3 to the triple 2-2-2. Rare, but more reachable than the corners.
-
Total 7
Fifteen ways. The first of the mid-table totals, where hits start to come regularly.
-
Total 8
Twenty-one ways. Common enough to land often, with a payout to match the shorter odds.
-
Total 9
Twenty-five ways, just behind the peak. A frequent total at a modest payout.
-
Total 10
Tied with 11 as the most common total at twenty-seven ways, so it lands most often and pays the least.
-
Total 11
Tied with 10 as the most common total at twenty-seven ways: the highest-frequency, lowest-paying number.
-
Total 12
Twenty-five ways, the mirror of 9. Frequent and modestly paid.
-
Total 13
Twenty-one ways, the mirror of 8. A common total in the middle tier.
-
Total 14
Fifteen ways, the mirror of 7. Hits regularly without being a long shot.
-
Total 15
Ten ways, the mirror of 6. Back into the rarer, better-paying totals.
-
Total 16
Six ways, the mirror of 5. A long-shot total with a strong payout.
-
Total 17
Comes only from 5, 6, 6, three ways in all. One step below the ceiling.
-
Total 18
The highest total, made a single way: three 6s. As rare as 3, and paying the top base amount.
What Super Sic Bo is
Super Sic Bo is Evolution’s live, multiplier-enhanced take on Sic Bo, a dice game that dates back centuries in China. The core is unchanged: you bet on how three dice will land, an automated shaker rolls them on camera, and matching bets pay out on that single roll. What Evolution adds is a multiplier layer. Before each shake, a random selection of bet spots is lit with multipliers that can reach 1,000x, so the same bet pays far more when its spot is chosen. It’s one of the studio’s most popular dice tables and the reference point for the wider live Sic Bo category.
How a round plays out
Each round starts with a betting window. You place chips on any of the available outcomes, then the random multipliers are revealed, landing on a handful of bet spots with values up to 1,000x. The automated shaker then rolls the three dice in a sealed transparent dome, and the result is read automatically.
Every bet that matches the dice pays out at once. If a bet you won was on a spot that had a multiplier, your payout is multiplied by that value; if it wasn’t lit, it pays the standard odds. There’s no carry-over between rolls and no shooter: each round is self-contained, decided entirely by one shake. That makes the pace brisk and the maths simple to follow round to round.
The bet types and what they pay
The bet menu is full classic Sic Bo, and the payouts climb with the longshot odds:
- Big (11 to 17) and Small (4 to 10): even money, 1:1. Both lose if the roll is a triple. These are the lowest-edge bets.
- Combination (two specific numbers): around 5:1, a low-edge bet that wins whenever two chosen faces both appear.
- Specific double: a chosen pair showing, paying around 8:1 to 10:1 by table.
- Specific total (4 through 17): odds scale with how rare the total is, from roughly 6:1 for the middle totals to about 50:1 to 60:1 for the extremes.
- Any triple: any three matching dice, around 30:1.
- Specific triple: a named three-of-a-kind, the longest shot, roughly 150:1 to 180:1 by table.
On top of any of these, a random multiplier up to 1,000x can land on the spot for that round. The exact base payouts vary slightly between tables and can change, so the game’s info panel is the authority before you bet.
The random multipliers, the “super” part
The multipliers are what separate Super Sic Bo from a standard table. Each round, after betting closes, the game assigns random multipliers to a set of bet spots, with values that can reach 1,000x. You can’t choose which spots get lit or how high they go; a certified random generator decides that. Our Super Sic Bo live tracker records the top multiplier offered each round, so you can see how often the big values actually appear.
The catch is timing. The multipliers are placed before the dice are read, so you only benefit if you’d already backed a spot that happens to be lit and the dice then match it. You can’t react to the multipliers, only hope they fall on a bet you made. Over many rounds they pay out as designed, but they don’t improve your odds of winning any single bet; they only change what a win is worth when the lit spot and the result line up.
RTP, house edge and the best bet
The return depends entirely on which bet you make, and this is the number that matters most. Big and Small return 97.22% with a 2.78% house edge, the best value on the table. They win close to half the time, losing only when the dice land as a triple, which is why they’re the steady choice. The flashier bets are far costlier: specific totals, doubles and triples carry double-digit house edges despite their large payouts, so their long-run return sits well below the headline figure.
A short note on the maths: the 97.22% is the Big/Small basis, and table payouts, limits and the exact multiplier behaviour can vary by operator, so treat the info panel as the source of truth. The multipliers raise the ceiling on a lucky round but don’t lift the long-run return of any bet; the edge on each bet type still applies.
Strategy and the honest truth
No system beats Sic Bo. Each roll is independent, so chasing a total that “hasn’t come up” or piling onto triples for the big payout only increases variance, not your expected return. The bets with the worst odds are the ones that pay the most, by design. The sensible approach is to favour Big or Small for their low edge, treat the multiplier spots and the rare triple as occasional upside rather than a strategy, and size stakes to a set budget. The 1,000x ceiling is a real but uncommon event, not something to bank a session on.
Where Super Sic Bo fits
Super Sic Bo is the multiplier end of the live dice category: a clean, fast Sic Bo table for players who want the traditional game with a shot at an amplified win. The honest downsides are that the multipliers are out of your control and the headline payouts come from bets with the worst returns, so the upside and the cost are tied together. If you prefer dice without the multiplier layer, standard live Sic Bo plays the same at its core; if you like the random-multiplier idea on a different game, the Lightning family applies it to roulette and other formats. Our live casino list covers crypto-friendly casinos that run it, and the sic bo section sits alongside the craps and other live tables we cover.

Frequently asked questions
What does Sic Bo mean?
Sic Bo is a Chinese term usually translated as 'precious dice' or 'dice pair'. It's an ancient game of chance played with three six-sided dice, where you bet on the outcome of a single roll rather than against other players. The name has been romanised several ways (sic bo, tai sai, dai siu), but the game is the same: predict how the three dice will fall. Super Sic Bo is Evolution's live online version, with random multipliers added on top of the traditional rules.
How do you play Super Sic Bo?
You bet on the outcome of three dice, then an automated shaker rolls them on camera. Place chips on the outcomes you want (Big or Small, a specific total, a double, a triple, a single number, or a combination), and before the shake some bet spots light up with random multipliers up to 1,000x. The dice are revealed, and any bet you've backed that matches pays out, multiplied if its spot was lit. Losing bets are cleared and the next round begins. The rules are standard Sic Bo; the multipliers are the only addition.
What is the best strategy for Super Sic Bo?
Stick to the Big or Small bets. Each pays 1:1 and returns 97.22%, the lowest house edge on the table at 2.78%, and each wins close to half the time (they only lose on a triple). No strategy beats the house edge, and the long-odds bets like specific triples have far worse returns despite their big payouts. The honest 'best strategy' is to favour Big or Small, treat the multiplier spots as occasional upside rather than a plan, and set a budget. Past rolls don't influence the next one.
Is Super Sic Bo like craps?
They're related but different. Both are dice games where you bet on the result of a roll, but craps uses two dice and Sic Bo uses three, which changes the totals and the bet menu. In Sic Bo every bet is decided on a single roll, there's no shooter or pass line carrying over between rolls, and the totals run from 4 to 17 instead of craps' 2 to 12. If you know craps, the betting layout will feel familiar, but the odds, payouts and pace are their own. Super Sic Bo adds the multiplier layer craps doesn't have.
What is the maximum payout in Super Sic Bo?
The ceiling is 1,000x your stake on a single bet, reached when a multiplier lands on a spot you backed and the dice match it. The base payouts vary by bet: Big or Small pays 1:1, combinations pay around 5:1, and the longest-odds bets like a specific triple can pay roughly 150:1 to 180:1 depending on the table, before any multiplier. The 1,000x figure is rare because it needs a high multiplier on a spot you've bet and the right dice in the same round. Exact payouts are shown in the game's info panel.
What equipment is needed to play Super Sic Bo?
Traditional Sic Bo needs three standard six-sided dice and a shaker or a small dome to roll them under. In Super Sic Bo you need none of it yourself: Evolution films an automated electronic shaker that rolls three real dice in a sealed dome, so there's no physical equipment on your end beyond a device and connection. The shaker and dice are the genuine kit; the multipliers and bet grid are shown on your screen. It's the live, online equivalent of the casino table game.
