    When I received my poker chip (over 2 years ago), I got 5 dice with them. Normal dice numbered 1 - 6...

    What are these used for? I've always wondered....

    You can play Yahtzee with them. basically poker with dice. Nearly all sets come with them. I think the Chinese have a dice mountain and this is how they are getting rid of them :D

    My set has poker dice which has 9-A on the faces. You roll the 5 and then the best poker hand from them wins. There's something about being able to roll them/some of them 3 times. Seems a bit like triple draw.

    The dice are primarily used for the game of Craps which is one of the top casino games in the USA.

    The dice used for craps are numered 1-6.

    The dice with 9-A are for other4 games like "liars dice" and "Poker Dice"

    example of rules for poker dice can be found here.
