Whoops! After the '4' is rolled at 08:10, play should have passed normally to player #2.

This is the best RU-vid channel out there, honestly

Thank you so much for the high praise! ❤

This has always been one of my favorite Pennsic drinking/gambling games! In our version we do the coins the same way as your original version. The drinking part we play is when a player rolls a 4 or 7 only that player toasts the house or the wedding party. When anyone rolls a 12 all players toast the king. Its fun and easy and we let people continue to buy more tokens if they wish. After all the more you play the more the house wins.

I like your version! Definitely brings more social interaction to the game. I'm sure that the King didn't mind all the extra attention too 😉

Very interesting. An easy and fun game to play even with younger kids (maybe without the drinking part 😁) Thanks for introducing this one. May have to make a version to try playing with my boys. Found you through Opus Elenae's community comment. Thanks for sharing and take care.

Thanks for visiting! I hope you and your boys have fun playing. 😊

The board at 2:26 is not for a dice game, but for a card game. And AFAIK all boards before the 1960s or 1970s included the field with the 4. It was dropped because somebody wanted to shoehorn the dice game onto the Bavarian card game board (totally ahistorical, obviously) which only has ten fields, since it was never created for the dice game...

The knot in the wood kept throwing me off. It looks like a penny. LOL.

What is the earliest version of this game? Would people in the Viking age have played it? Thank you.

How does one acquire such a fascinating board?

@TheRavensTable 2 года назад

The one in the video, I made myself. But they don't have to be fancy in order to play. It could be as simple as using a sharpie on canvas (look for my "Board in a Bag" video to see how you can make your own).

@sarudon8412 2 года назад

Do you have a source for this game being played? Im trying to find examples from museums and am having a hard time finding one besides one obscure reference to an artifact in Munich or Nuremberg that I can only find blog posts of but not from the museum itself.

@TheRavensTable 2 года назад

Sure thing! If you take a look at the video starting at 1:59 I show a number of historical boards from the 15th century and later. So we know it was played at least as far back as then. A good scholarly article going into some of the history would be: "The Game of Seven: Glückshaus and Related Dice Games" by Jonas Richter in the journal "Board Game Studies" # 13, pp. 67-97 (DOI 10.2478/bgs-2019-0004)

@nathanstevens7880 2 года назад

What if the opening roll is a 2?

@TheRavensTable 2 года назад

If you roll a '2' or a '12' and the board is empty, then unfortunately you get nothing. Doesn't happen too often, but I have seen it occur. Thanks for the question!

@christophereisenhauer 5 месяцев назад

no you have to add a nother one

@camotophat Год назад

So its the predecessor to craps kinda?

@TheRavensTable Год назад

Great question! I haven't seen a direct connection between Glückshaus and craps. But I *DO* cover a known predecessor of Craps in a different video! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LngEnejrm0s.html Thanks for watching!

@MrMickio1 3 года назад

BTW is the wandering jew really a antisemitic name? Im pretty sure thats a really old and classic jewish legend i think.

@TheRavensTable 2 года назад

Yes, it is indeed an antisemetic name because of the legend behind it. Per the Encyclopedia Britannica: "As Christianity spread in the first centuries CE, most Jews continued to reject that religion. As a consequence, by the 4th century, Christians tended to regard Jews as an alien people who, because of their repudiation of Christ and his church, were condemned to perpetual migration (a belief best illustrated in the legend of the Wandering Jew)."
