The lesson in words
Stand when you’re winning, or on a full house when you go first. The same idea of knowing when to stop helps in Five Dice and Ship, Captain and Crew.
Questions
Your opponent stood on two pair. You have three 4s. Reroll or stand?
Stand. Three 4s already beat two pair, so the round is yours. There’s nothing to gain from another roll.
You have a full house. Reroll or stand?
Stand on a full house or better when you go first. Breaking it up usually leaves you with less.
Your opponent has three 5s. You have a pair of 2s. What now?
You’re losing, so you have to roll. Keep the pair and roll three for a better hand.
