Mexico (game)

Games of Chance

Mexico is an elimination-style dice game in which several players agree to play a set number of rounds. After each round, the losing player pays into a common pot of money. When all players but one have been eliminated by losing all their money, the remaining player wins the game and the pot. Owing to its extremely simple play-structure, it is generally pursued as a method of gambling, whereby the final remaining player wins the amount of money wagered by each person who was eliminated in earlier rounds. Scoring is identical to the dice game Mia, also known as Mexicali Dice or Mexican Liars, but Mia has very different game mechanics, as it is a variant of the drinking game liar's dice. The game Bidou, also known as Montevideo, has a similar scoring system but uses three dice instead.
