The HP-65 acts as a casino operator in the game of Chuck-a-luck.
The player places a bet by entering an integer amount and pressing B.
The player then selects a number from 1 to 6 and presses A.
The HP-65 then rolls three dice.
The player is paid off 1-to-1 if the number selected appears on one of the dice, 2-to-1 if it appears on two of the dice and 3-to-1 if it appears on all three dice.
The player may continue by selecting another number and pressing A.
The display will show the three dice to the right of the decimal point and the win/loss to the left of the decimal point after each throw.
