How Small Table works.
Two sides. One die. Roll across the line, make the catch, and keep the die alive.
What is Small Table?
Teams of 2 face off across the table and roll a die onto the opposite side. If the die lands clean and isn't caught before it hits the ground, the tossing side scores.
Basic setup.
Lock the side frames into the tabletop and place the table on any flat surface. Players sit in each corner on the same side of the line as their team. The throwing team starts with the die.
How scoring works.
A clean landing on the other side scores if the die isn't caught before it hits the ground. Line shots are fair. Games go to 5, win by 2.
Catching rules.
One-handed catches only. Bobbles are live, but if the die hits a torso or hits the floor off the table after contact, the throwing side scores.
Table dimensions.
Every table uses the same dimensions and layout.
