This is so cool! I love the attire and the time in history. The game looks fun too! I have many photos of late 1800's and early 1900's depicting the same settings with my family enjoying nature and the outdoors like you are presenting in this video. Thank you for your time and please do more lol!
I did a spot on bid on Red Dead Redemption on the 360 in 2010. There were 5 players. All of them, including myself, had one die left. My spot on bid was right and they all lost at the same time. I had to mute my microphone lol.
That was so enjoyable and wholesome to watch and learn. I couldn't figure out how to play liars dice on red dead redemption, couldn't understand the rules but the way you three played it and told the rules, I'm pretty sure I can figure it out now. Cant wait for more content.
@@DarthMeteos I know I'm 9 months late to this comment but damn that's one of the sickest burns I've ever seen and I had to post my congratulations to you.
I always thought that when someone calls a "spot on" correctly, everyone else looses a dice apart from the person that called it. This seems to remove the idea that only the person who bet being punished for essentially betting correctly. Give it a try next time, it's pretty good
I always understood that a correct call of "spot on" causes the player who made the call to regain a lost die; either way, the higher risk "spot on" call carries a higher reward than calling the previous player a liar, as it should. The important thing is for all players to agree on the rules beforehand, since many different variations on the rules do exist!
RDR is where I learned about Liars Dice! Took me a little bit to get the hang of it and was a bit frustrating at first, but once I figured out to play the percentages it turned into my favorite dice game! Now I wanna go back and play Red Dead Redemption
its taken me years of rewatching dead mans chest and playing red dead 1 to understand this game and i think i finaly get it. personaly i think i still prefer poker but if they every add this into red dead 2 i think ill be down for a all nighter XD
Sweet. Especially the bit where you refer to "incredibly old" something which is at least 400yrs young than my local church and many other buildings used across the world, such a weird perspective to have.
The same game played by Davy Jones and Will Turner in 'Pirates of Caribbean - Deadman's Chest/At World's End" . I have them on DVD, but I haven't watched them in a while, so I don't remember.
YALLL BETTER MAKE MORE LIARS DICE VIDS cuz i'm honestly tired of looking up liars dice on youtube and all i get are "how to" videos. Like nah, I wanna see a few games happen!
Well, on one hand if it's your turn, you know that the last bid was correct, and the bid is high enough that raising it will get your bluff called for sure, it's nice to have a defense against THAT. On the other hand, there are versions of liar's dice where there is no spot on. They are specifically using the Red Dead Redemption version, but if you don't like spot on, you can play without it. There's also versions of liar's dice where calling spot on correctly awards an extra die to the person that called it. This makes spot on meaningful, without directly punishing the prior bidder for being right.
Here is why 6 is worth less than 5,4,3,2,1. The amount of weight removed from each face of the die to make the dimples. Therefore the odds are actually skewed ever so slightly. That means 6 is the most often thrown number on cheap dice that don’t have a counterweight
Can you make a new livestream on the official THG channel when you do Titanic THG exploring live 2020/2021. I'm building the Titanic in Minecraft 1:2 scale and i'm using blueprints and your game as my sources
Slightly different rules than the other video on RUclips which they don't add an old west vibe. In the other ruleset the player who loses a die goes first. I also wasn't aware of the "spot on" option. One Question...why do you have to only increase the face value when making a new bet. For example after someone bets "four 4s", why can't you counterbet "five 2s"? Like why can't you bet on a lower die number but keep the bet amount the same or higher? Good content thank you
@@matthewaskew8076 There is a 1/6 chance to get any number on a die. Getting 6 of any number is inherently less likely than 2 of any number. By your logic, you'd be more likely to roll 6 1s than you would to roll 1 6. And that isn't true.
Heres an observation: the first thing that caught my eye was that you had this weird definitely homemade, no reproducer phonograph, playing a 78 at 45 or 33 RPM. And it looks to be a Red labeled Columbia 78 too. And clearly you over dubbed it was some other stuff
@@PartTimeExplorer I'm not saying it is. Just an observation, though now looking at the way i worded stuff I can see how it comes off worse for wear or arrogant. For that I'm sorry. Good musical choices though. Especially that Ada Jones one
@@CPorter No worries- it's always hard to read tone online. The music was definitely dubbed, but we couldn't get around that otherwise it would jump whenever we cut the shot.
@@PartTimeExplorer indeed it is. I assume that machine is part of your collection, am I correct? I've always loved those tabletop and portable ones. So easy to use and very fun to service.
I think there should be a rule for no calling on the first cycle. The odds of someone guessing correctly on the first turn between all 15 dice starting on the table is staggeringly low, so of course you can say they’re lying and almost certainly be correct. That’s not strategy or playing a game, that’s just unfair. Let the players bluff a bit and throw off the others with their bids. This presents its own problems, but still.
I think you're missing something. When you call liar, it doesn't have to be anything but exactly right. For example, suppose I said one one, the lowest possible bid. If you call liar and there are zero ones, you'd be correct. But if there is AT LEAST one one, you'd be the one losing a die. You'd lose a die if there are two ones, three ones, etc. The person doesn't have to be spot on, they are correct as long as they are not bidding TOO MUCH.
they have explained the rules, but are playing the game in a stupid way, calling results right away is no better than wild guessing. better way would be to go at leest one turn, letting eweryone say what they have to say, collect more information, and than make a decision, the more turns game goes the more information you have, and the better decision you can make. great depiction is scene from pirates of the caribien, where the stakes are really high, and no one wants to loose
I show this to 8 of this "persons" 😒.. you know.. kids from the current "loser generation" that don't even understating if they are man or woman.. and decide to offend every man and woman of the world forcing us to call ourselves "persons" instead of what we really are since we grow up😤..... anyway...... I show this to them and none a single one of then understating sh$%^it about this game😂..... 3 of them.. not even get to the part at 4:15 of the explanation🤨....... they all were like... what the fu%^$ck is he talking about??🤣........... yeah.. say... "attention span of a mosquito".. is offend the mosquitoes dude! 😏
I don't care for the "spot on" rule because it is antithetical to the 'liar' part of liar's dice. There's no real play or counterplay to a 'spot on' call. If you call it right you didn't catch someone in a bluff. If you call it wrong it adds nothing to the game because you hoisted yourself.

Been playing RDR1 for hours, many of those playing liars dice. Within the 1st 5mins of this video, I now understand the game. Thanks
A nice bunch of wholesome content for the month.
Liar's Dice was my all time favorite mini game in RDR
I did a spot on bid on Red Dead Redemption on the 360 in 2010. There were 5 players. All of them, including myself, had one die left. My spot on bid was right and they all lost at the same time. I had to mute my microphone lol.
I did the same thing today for the bandits outfit both but it was 2 other people
Note to self: don’t mess with Tom when he activates dead-eye😂

"K he's out"
"Alright, my turn then"
Bahahahahaha. That was hilarious.
I'd like to see you do something about the houses during the great depression. And food rationing during the war. Great video.
its taken me years of rewatching dead mans chest and playing red dead 1 to understand this game and i think i finaly get it. personaly i think i still prefer poker but if they every add this into red dead 2 i think ill be down for a all nighter XD
It legit bummed me out when I found out this game wasn't included in RDR 2
I just begin to get over losing Arthur Morgan and ya hit me with this great video. Excellent channel man.. love it.
Sweet. Especially the bit where you refer to "incredibly old" something which is at least 400yrs young than my local church and many other buildings used across the world, such a weird perspective to have.
Great video. I've never heard of this game. Definitely will give it a try.
I have a Pirates of the Caribbean themed liars dice set, I love it
The bid at 9:08 was legit, buy the guy on the right a drink 😉 Nice video
Nothing like that beginning reminds me of one of Tom’s old films like those war films and the last signals
I cannot stress how cool this is.
OOHHHHH I PLAYED THIS IN LEGO PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN
We play spot on with collateral damage meaning if you call it everyone else loses a dice except for the caller
I like that
I guess that makes sense, because it's kind of hard to get a spot on sometimes and it's risky so if you pull it off everyone loses a die.
The same game played by Davy Jones and Will Turner in 'Pirates of Caribbean - Deadman's Chest/At World's End" . I have them on DVD, but I haven't watched them in a while, so I don't remember.
Wish I had friends now :(
That looks like a fun game

Back to film making, I see tom.
Found in a yuca tree? That reminds me of that 1873 Winchester found lying next a stump for over 130 years.
Awesome Tom!! Thanks for sharing how to play this game. :)
That looks like a fun new gambling game I can show to the family at Christmas.
The "spot on" rule makes no sense to me. It basically punishes the bidder for guessing correctly and there's no defense to it.
Well, on one hand if it's your turn, you know that the last bid was correct, and the bid is high enough that raising it will get your bluff called for sure, it's nice to have a defense against THAT.

I do love this game. Can be tough to explain to drunk people but when people know how to play it's very entertaining and someone will inevitably cheat
Anyone: Bluf-
Tom: STAHP IT
This honestly explains alot better how liars dice works
That's pretty interesting, never played Red Dead or anything but still.
Really enjoyed this

You guys should do a history of other games. I would love to see one on poker dice.
This video is my favorite game rule videos, love the history aspect.
Thanks for explaining this
I wonder if people had to write down the rules to learn them, as this seems like alot to keep track of at first.
Another excellent video.

indeed.
I don’t like the “spot on” option, without it the game is much more intense in forcing someone into a bad situation

Because then the risk is lowered.
@@fan9775 how does the different face number lower the risk? Your increasing the number of total die still so how is that lowering the risk?
Because of luck, your better of betting a low die number such as six 2s because that's more likely to occur than two 6s
You CAN go from four 4s to five 2s. You just can't go from four 4s to four 2s.

Actually if the bid is spot-on and it’s called, everybody except the caller loses a die.
Thanks
How you prevent people from cheating and turn their dice while looking?
I wonder why this was removed from RDR2?
4:33
“Four 4s”
i thought the ones are supposed to be the wilds and will be counted as what was called
I LOVE YOUR VIDEO IT A THUMB UP ON YOUR VIDEO FROM RASHEED NATHA ONLYS
Imagine if when you catch a liar, you get their die, that way the odds stay high, instead of diminishing as people lose die.
Thanks now iam gonna bid my years of service
When I can get a decent gpu for my new Ryzen build I want to play red dead and red dead II.
In RDR this game was SO EASY
My guessing is 1850s or 1870s. 14:01
Probably the 1870s-80s is my guess

Use to play with cash (or "cash") instead of removing dices.
if the guy guesses ...spot on...shouldn't all others lose a dice?

what happens when u all have 0 dice left
You lose.
That is mathematically impossible.
The don't "lose a dice" they lose a "die". It means one single "dice".
K but why are they saying obvious bluffs constantly its just moronic
Not a fan of the "spot on" call. It makes things too complicated.
