Hazard (game) chance of 6, he could win £8 (4/5 × £10). For each main the probability of winning can be calculated: In some reports on the rules of the game, the main is determined randomly by tossing the dice until a valid main appears. In this case the overall player disadvantage is 1.84%. If the caster can choose a main, he should always choose 7 (resulting in the lowest disadvantage, with 1.41%). This is the origin of a similar dice game, craps, since if 7 is always chosen the game devolves into craps. The name "hazard" is borrowed from Old French.
