Section 4620.15 - Bang

(a) Equipment.

(1) A table with a layout and an upright rail around the outside edges of the table. The rail serves as a backboard and also helps to prevent the dice from falling off the table.

(2) Two dice. The dealer has at least five dice in front of the dealer, from which the shooter selects two dice to roll.

(b) Players. Any number can play, provided there is space at the table.

(c) The play.

(1) Players place bets on the betting layout.

The sections marked "Beat the Dealer Hi Dice" on the layout are considered the outside sections of the layout and are referred to as outside bets. All other betting spaces on the layout are considered to be inside sections or inside bets.

(2) The dealer announces: "No more bets."

(3) The dealer rolls first. The total count of the two dice that face upward when the dice come to rest are considered the dealer's point. The dealer places a marker on the layout to indicate the dealer's point.

(4) The dealer's roll affects all inside bets, i.e., all bets on the layout except Beat the Dealer Hi Dice bets. (Note that Big Six and Big Eight bets are active on every roll of the dice, but are only affected by a losing roll of 7, or by the roll of a winning 6 or 8, respectively.) After collecting the losing inside wagers and paying the winning inside wagers, the dealer announces: "Place inside bets only." (No additional "Beat the Dealer Hi Dice" bets can be placed at this time.)

(5) The first bettor on the dealer's left rolls next. This player is rolling for all inside bets and is rolling for all other "Beat the Dealer Hi Dice" bettors at the table.

(6) After collecting the losing wagers and paying the winning wagers, the first game is over.

(7) The dealer announces: "Place all bets inside and outside."

(8) To start a new game, the dealer rolls the dice and places the marker to indicate the new dealer's point. After collecting the losing wagers and paying the winning inside wagers, the dealer again announces: "Place inside bets only." The dealer offers the dice to the player to the left of the previous shooter. This shooter's roll affects all bets on the layout. (Note that after the dealer rolls to start each new game, the dice pass clockwise around the table to the player to the left of the previous shooter.)

(d) Bets and odds.

(1) All bets must be made before the dice are thrown. Bets will not be honored while the dice are rolling.

(2) Field bet. A player can bet on any one roll that one of the following numbers will come up: 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 or 12. If it does, the player wins and is paid off at even money. If 5, 6, 7 or 8 comes up, the player loses.

(3) Under seven. The player wins on any one roll if the total count of the two dice is 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. Any other number loses. Payoff is even money.

(4) Any seven. The player wins on any one roll if the total count of the two dice is 7. Payoff is 4-to-1.

(5) Over seven. The player wins on any one roll if the total count of the two dice is 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. Any other number loses. Payoff is even money.

(6) Big six. The player wins if a 6 is rolled before a 7. Payoff is even money.

(7) Big eight. The player wins if an 8 is rolled before a 7. Payoff is even money.

(8) Beat the Dealer Hi Dice. Winning Beat the Dealer Hi Dice bets are paid off at even money. The house wins on all ties.

(e) Maximum bet shall be $5 or its equivalent in chips.
