(a)Equipment.

A wheel of variable size. Around the rim of the wheel's surface are sections, each of which shows one side of three dice bearing different combinations of the numbers 1 through 6. The wheel has a corresponding layout.

(b)The play.
(1)A player places a wager on one or more numbers on the layout and the dealer spins the wheel. When the wheel stops, the section in which the indicator arm rests is the winning combination.
(2)If the player places a wager on the number 1 and the wheel stops at 1-2-3, the payoff odds are 1-to-1 since the number 1 showed only once. If the wheel stops at 1-1-2, the payoff odds are 2-to-1 since the number 1 showed twice. This holds true for all the numbers; e.g., if the player places his wager on number 5 and the wheel stops on 4-5-6, the payoff odds are 1-to-1. If the wheel stops at 5-5-5, the payoff odds are 3-to-1.
(3)The maximum bet shall be $5 or its equivalent in chips.

(2)If the player places a wager on the number 1 and the wheel stops at 1-1-9-9-9, the payoff odds are 2-to-1 because the number 1 showed twice. If the wheel stops at 1-1-1-4-4, the payoff odds are 3-to-1 because the number 1 showed three times. This holds true for all the numbers; e.g., if the player places his wager on number 5 and the wheel stops on 2-2-5-5-5, the payoff odds are 3-to-1. If the wheel stops at 5-5-5-5-5, the payoff odds are 5-to-1.
