110  <h2>You’ll learn how to Play Bunco</h2>
111  <br/>
112
113  The best way to learn how to play Bunco is simply playing. With PlayBunco.com you can practice in a low-stakes game against computer players. The basics are each player takes turns rolling three dice. The player rolls the dice and scores points based on the number of dice that match the round number. For example, in Round 1, players score points for each die that shows a 1.
114  <br/><br/>
115  <ul>
116    <li>The game is played in six rounds, with each round featuring a different target number.</li>
117    <li>Players can also score a “Bunco” by rolling three of a kind, which is worth 21 points.</li>
118    <li>A “mini Bunco” is worth 5 points and is scored when a player rolls three of a kind that does not match the round number.</li>
119    <li>The team with the most points at the end of the six rounds wins the game.   </li>
120  </ul>
121
122  <h2>The pros and cons of PlayBunco.com vs Online Dice Game</h2>
123  <br/>
124  Both PlayBunco.com and Online Dice’s version of Bunco are free to play in your browser. But only PlayBunco.com brings a little more competition with AI computer players. You’ll get a more authentic Bunco experience that’s more dynamic.
125  <br/><br/>
126  Game play will be a little slower with PlayBunco.com because, like the real game, you’ll be taking turns against other players. However, these animations are quick and automatic.
127  <br/><br/>
128  PlayBunco.com adds a sense of realism and scorekeeping that the Online Dice Game version lacks. Like traditional Bunco, you’ll play to score a Bunco based on the actual round numbers..
129  <br/><br/>
130  There are other differences you might like to know about before you start playing.
