 "Pig (Pig-out)" Analysis
Pig (Pig-out) is a dice game for two or more players.
The game rules are identical for this version of pig except the player loses his temporary turn score when one of the dice shows a "6", and loses his entire score when double "6's" (box cars) are rolled.
If at any point in a player's turn, one of the dice shows a "1", the entire temporary score is lost, and the dice are passed to the next player.
