Bầu cua cá cọp

'gourd crab fish tiger'; also Bầu cua tôm cá or Lắc bầu cua) is a Vietnamese gambling game using three dice.

Instead of showing one to six pips, the sides of the dice have pictures of a fish; a prawn; a crab; a cock; a calabash; and a stag (or a tiger).

If two dice correspond with a bet, the bettor receives two times their money.

Any money not rewarded for the round is kept in a central pool managed by the dealer, who rolls the dice.

Bầu cua cá cọp is essentially the Vietnamese original version of Hoo Hey How (Fish-Prawn-Crab) played in China, and Klah Klok/Kla Klouk which is the Cambodian version,[3] and the dice game Crown and Anchor adopted by British sailors, or chuck-a-luck played in America.
