How Does Thai HiLo Work?

The gameplay is simple and easy to follow:

1. Place Your Bets: At the start of each round, you’ll place a bet predicting the outcome of the dice.

2. The Dice Shaker: The dealer activates a dice shaker, which mixes up the three dice.

3. Outcome Revealed: When the shaker stops, the dice settle, and the results are revealed.

4. Win or Lose: If your bet matches the dice outcome, you win! Depending on your bet type, you could win up to 11 times your original bet.


Types of Bets in Thai HiLo


There are many ways to bet in Thai HiLo, so don’t be intimidated. While there are 36 specific bets you can place, they can all be grouped into 6 main categories:

1. Hi, Lo, and HiLo

Hi: Bet that the sum of the three dice will be a high number (12 to 18).

Lo: Bet that the sum will be a low number (3 to 10).

HiLo: Bet that the sum will be exactly 11.

2. Specific Number

You can bet on a specific number (1 to 6) appearing on the dice.

For example:

If you bet on the number 6 and it appears twice, you’ll win a higher payout than if it appeared only once.

3. Specific Double

This bet predicts that a specific pair of numbers will appear on the dice (e.g., 1 and 2 or 3 and 6).

4. Combinations

Here, you bet on specific dice combinations, such as 1-2-3 or 4-5-6.

If the combination you choose matches the dice outcome, your payout could be up to 6x your original bet.

5. Lo with a Specific Number

This bet predicts that the total sum will be a low number (3 to 10) and that a specific number (1–6) will appear at least once.

For example:

Betting on "6 Lo" means you’re predicting that the sum will be low and the number 6 will appear on at least one dice.

Winning this type of bet could multiply your money by 11x!

6. Hi with a Specific Number

This is similar to the previous bet, but instead, you’re predicting a high number (12 to 18) and a specific number to appear.

For example:

Betting on "3 High" means you’re predicting the sum will be high and the number 3 will appear on at least one dice.


How to Place Your Bets

Placing a bet in Thai HiLo is super easy. Here’s how:

1. Choose Your Bet Amount: Select your chips (e.g., $2, $10, $50).

2. Place Your Bet: Click on the area of the table corresponding to your chosen bet type (e.g., Hi, Lo, or a specific number). 

o For example, if you want to bet $6 on Lo, select the $2 chip and click on "Lo" three times to total $6.

3. Confirm Your Bet: Once you’re happy with your choice, click the tick button to lock it in.

When the betting timer runs out, the dealer starts the dice shaker, and the game begins!


Payouts: What Can You Win?

Each type of bet has its own payout rate, so your winnings depend on the type of bet you place.

For example:

A simple Hi or Lo bet has a smaller payout compared to specific combinations or "Lo with a Specific Number."

Betting on rare outcomes, like "6 Lo," can multiply your bet by 11x!

If you want to see all the payout rates in detail, you can refer to the "Game Rules" section in the game’s menu.
