Pig<\/b> is a simple dice game first described in print by John Scarne in 1945.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rules<\/span><\/h2>\n

Each turn, a player repeatedly rolls a die until either a 1 is rolled or the player decides to “hold”:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • If the player rolls a 1, they score nothing and it becomes the next player’s turn.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • If the player rolls any other number, it is added to their turn total and the player’s turn continues.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • If a player chooses to “hold”, their turn total is added to their score, and it becomes the next player’s turn.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Variation we used, if you roll snake eyes (both 1\u2019s), then your total score from past rounds is reset to 0.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The first player to score 100 or more points wins.<\/span><\/p>\n
