Chikago (called in the literature also often Chicago) is a cube play, which is operated with three cubes.

Rules

Since the rules can depend on the play round or also tavern-specifically vary, it is advisable to obtain before agreement.

One draws, who begins, since the Beginner does not have an advantage which can be underestimated. The 1er counts either 1 or 100, 6er counts either 6 or 60, all other eye numbers counts normally. With the three cubes may be maximally three times. If first of a round lets the cubes lie after its first throw, everyone may do one mark cubes in the round likewise only. If it stops after the second throw, the successors may turn also at the most two times the

After a throw one may rauslegen one or more cubes. There is no obligation, cubes rauszulegen, but which was once put, no more may not into the cup back. The player, who begins, decides, how it is rated whether 1er 100 and 6er 60 or 1er 1 and 6er 6 are worth, and whether highly or deeply is rated, i.e. whether the others must more highly or deep cubes, in order to exceed the throw, because each following must more strongly cubes than its predecessor. The Beginner can also say count 60 to 6er, but 1er count 1, e.g. if he did not 1er however 6.

If one obtains two 6en in the first throw, then one can convert these into a 1. 6 thus on the 1 one turns, the other 6 must back into the cup. The highest throw are three 1er. This throw is called Chicago and immediately won. The lucky one steps out usually of the round and has with the further Ausspiel of the loser (in the tavern the round to often settle has) nothing more to do.

Structure and a goal of the play

One plays by as many as desired players. A goal of the play is essentially it not to lose to pay in order to escape so the obligation, for all players a round. Play material are three cubes and a It is played with beer felt. In the first play phase easily, until all beer felt are distributed, in the second phase will become beer felt again "“played"”. Who has as last players still another beer felt, loses.

Cube values

Count:

• "“1"” always for "“one hundred"”
• "“2"”, "“3"”, "“4"” and "“5"” always its respective value, thus two, three, four and five
• "“6"” always for "“sixty"”
• two 6er can be turned to a "“1"”, whereby the second cube arrives again into the cup (for a further throw) OR two 6er are counted and lie-let as "“hundred one hundred"”
• three 1er count as "“Chicago"” or "“Chick"” and have the consequence that the player, who obtained it is immediately from the play (is called it does not have in any case not the round to pay!). Beer felt (see below), which it up to this time possibly already collected, from the play are taken
• if a 1 shows or 6 from three cubes no, it is a "“Fish"”, thus the lowest, which gives it

Important is in play above all rule "“with is Shit"”, which meant that the cube result of the player, who is "“deep"” (see there), in any case be over-bid must, one only the same result is one "“deep"”. In this way the possibility is offered of coming through even with a "“Fish"” if only one of the following players likewise only a "“Fish"”

Expiration of play

It is who begins. The first player has the possibility, up to three times to cubes. A goal can be attained as high a result with as few a throws as possible. 1er can to stand be left, other cubes can again into the cup. If one means a result to have that simply is to be undercut (because it is so high), one gives the cup with the cubes at the left seat neighbors with the current Spielstand. Here is indicated, what is "“high"” and with many throws the result was achieved, for example "“hundred one hundred-three on two are highly"”, which means: the player with two throws the result "“123"” (e.g. with two 6ern and a 3). The following player MUST now likewise twice cubes. It lets how many cubes stand thereby in the first throw, it is no matter, important is only that he after the second throw MORE stand has, as its predecessor. If it undercuts what is "“high"”, its result is "“deep"”, over-bids it it, is "“deep"” the result of the first player. In the example the second player 204 cubes (by two 1er and 4) became and thus would be "“deep"” the 123 of the first player. If it became for example a "“Fish"” cubes, "“Fish on two would be deep"”. Thus is reihum, always must the next player be announced, what is "“deep"”, which must be exceeded thus. Credit everything receives that player beer felt, which obtained the lowest result in the round, at which thus quasi "“deeply"” got stuck. The player, who had to take beer felt, submits for the next round. Thus one further-plays, until all beer felt (of those one more in the play is than fellow players participate) are distributed. Now all players, who have at least beer felt, must take part in the second round, with which felt become "“down-played"”; who at this time without beer felt is, the player is with most felt here, has several players equivalent many, with a cube is from play with the Runterspielen begins, who begins. Still it concerns to obtain the highest result with the few throws. The small difference is only that that, which is "“deep"” at the end of the round is not punished, but that that, which is "“high"” is recompenced, by being allowed to throw beer felt off. As soon as only a player is remaining, who possesses or several beer felt, has these lost and must a round spendieren.

Probabilities for a Chicago

The calculated probability for three ones are

• Chicago in the first throw: 0,00463
• Chicago in the second throw: 0,0239
• Chicago in the third throw: 0,0623

World championships (unofficial)

For some years take place in each case to 27 December each yearly in the Blue Moon the unofficial Chikago world championships. Since so far without recordings one did, world champions are to be designated only starting from the year 2005.
