Dice Poker Drinking Version, Drinking Game Rules

Category: Dice Games · Players: 2+ · You’ll need: 5 dice (or poker dice); drinks

Poker hands rolled with five dice, Yahtzee-style.

Setup: 5 dice. Everyone gets one turn per round.

How to play (your turn):

1. Roll all 5 dice.
2. Keep any you like, re-roll the rest. You may do this twice, 3 rolls total.
3. Your final five dice are your hand.

Hand rankings, best to worst: five of a kind > four of a kind > full house (three + pair) > straight (1-2-3-4-5 or 2-3-4-5-6) > three of a kind > two pair > one pair > high die.

Drinking: Lowest hand each round drinks 3 sips; highest hand gives out 2. Ties compare the highest dice, or split the sips.
