Below are the explanations of 7 betting areas that include a total of 50 different wager options for SicBo.
Single dice Numbers:Wagers may be made on any one of the six die sides, 1 through 6. If a number you choose appears on any one of the three dice rolled, the bet is paid off at 1:1. If two of the dice come up with the same number, the bet is paid off at 2:1. If all three dice come up on that same number, the bet is paid off at 3:1.
Two dice combinations:Wagers may be made on a combination of two particular die numbers. If those two numbers come up on any two of the three die, the bet is paid off at 6:1.
Total sums:Wagers may be made on the total sum of all three dice. The player can bet on any specific total from 4 to 17. The payoff on this bet varies from 6:1 to 60:1, depending on bet.

Big or Small:A wager on "big" or "small" is very popular! A bet on small wins if the total of the three dice is between 4 and 10. A bet on big wins if the dice total between 11 and 17. This pays 1:1. However, if a triple appears, even though the total sum may add up to a win for this wager, the bet is lost.
Doubles:Wagers my be placed on a specific "double" appearing. If two of the three die show the same number, then the wager will win 10 to 1.
Specific Triple:Wagers can be made that a particular triple will come up with a payoff of 180 to 1.
Any Triple:A wager can be placed that the three dice will land the same. This pays 30 to 1.
