Bar dice

Generally played in a bar, tavern or pub, the game is often used to determine which of the participants will pay for the next round of drinks.

Each round of the game will result with one player who has the highest hand; that player is "out" and can neither continue playing nor is responsible for the purchase of the next round of drinks.

Scoring is based on amassing the largest number of dice with the same digits.

Each hand must include at least a single "Ace", or one, in order to be a valid hand; Aces act as "wilds", and can be paired with any other digit.

In Wisconsin, when the game has only two players remaining each player is allowed three shakes of the dice, attempting to get the highest score.
