🎲 How to Play – Jackpot Games

Step 1: Set the Table

Place the Jackpot Game Board at the center. Assign one player as the dealer.

Step 2: Deal the Suits

Shuffle the deck of number cards. Each player receives a suit of 3 number cards (numbers 1–6 or 1-9 depending on the deck).

Before each round begins and after the number cards are dealt, players may engage in a one-minute optional exchange phase where they can trade number cards with one another. Trades must be one-for-one and mutually agreed upon by both players. This phase adds strategic depth, allowing players to improve their suits, disrupt opponents, or bluff, but all suits become locked once the timer ends and no further exchanges may occur.

Step 3: Determine Dues

The dealer rolls a single die to determine the dues amount based on the Price Code Table.

Step 4: Pay In

Each player pays chips (denominations of $1 to $100) to the dealer to go into the Jackpot Bag.

Step 5: Take Turns

Players roll three six-sided or nine-sided dice ( Depending on the deck) trying to match their suit. A full match wins the Jackpot!

Step 6: Tax Rule

If you match another player’s suit, you owe them a tax — one die roll × the dues value.

Step 7: Elimination or Jackpot Win

After each player rolls their dice:

The round ends immediately, and the dealer role rotates for the next game.

If a player cannot pay their dues or tax, they are eliminated from the game.

Dues must be paid to the dealer before the round begins.

Taxes must be paid if a player rolls a match to another player’s suit.

If a player cannot pay, they must forfeit their suit and remaining chips to the debtor (dealer or opposing player).

If a player rolls a perfect match to the dealer’s suit (the 3-number set originally dealt to them), they must shout “JACKPOT!”

The first player to do so wins the entire Jackpot Bag (the pot built from all paid dues).

If multiple players roll a match, the first to declare “Jackpot” is the winner.
