Fast 3

Introduction

Fast 3 is an engaging dice game developed by Gameplay Interactive, featuring four concurrent games. Much like the traditional game of sic bo, players place bets on the outcome of rolling three dice. A new round of the game initiates every 30 seconds, providing various betting options, detailed in the rules section below.

The expected payout percentage varies between 64.81% to 88.89%. Therefore, it’s important to be cautious when deciding on your bets, especially if you choose to participate at all.

Rules

A variety of betting options are available, outlined below. The sequence of the dice is irrelevant. Every half minute, a new set of three dice is rolled, and winnings are based on a 'for one' payout system.

  • Specific three of a kind — Players must select a precise combination of three identical numbers, such as 5-5-5, which pays out 181 if that exact set appears.
  • Any three of a kind — This option pays 32 for any combination of three identical numbers.
  • Three consecutive — A payout of 8 is awarded for any straight combination, such as 1-2-3 through to 4-5-6.
  • Two identical (specific) — Players must select a particular pair and a distinct number, for instance, 3-3-5. The payout is 60 for that exact configuration.
  • Two identical (group) — Players are required to select a specific pair, like 3-3. If the roll contains that pair along with any other number, the payout is 11. For example, if 3-3 is chosen, wins would also include combinations like 3-3-1, 3-3-2, 3-3-4, 3-3-5, and 3-3-6.
  • Two different — Players must select two distinct numbers, such as 2-6. A payout of 30 is granted if both chosen numbers appear, meaning that picking 2 and 6 would yield wins with 1-2-6, 2-3-6, 2-4-6, 2-5-6, 2-2-6, and 2-6-6.
  • One number — Players are required to select a specific digit, like 4. A minimum payout of 2.01 is made if that digit appears at least once. For example, choosing 4 would result in wins like 1-4-6, 4-5-5, 1-4-4, and 4-4-4.
