"Well," Loki said, "You have one hell of a good nose, then."
He fumbled in his pocket for a set of dice. "Here's the rules. You place a bet. Each of the players throws the dice, the one getting the highest number wins. Or you can determine a number in advance, and the one getting closest wins. Or you throw a set of five dice, not two, and different combinations win. That's like - number pairs are lowest, then three same numbers. A straight is what you call a series of numbers counting up. So - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Then there's full house - that's three of one number and two of another. Four of one number is the second most valuable, and five of a number is the ultimate winner."
