How many times can a player roll the dice during one turn in Yahtzee?

Answer 1

he player that wins the first turn then rolls all 6 dice at once. A turn consists of one or more rolls of the dice. Each roll of the dice the player must score points or their turn ends with no points added to their score.

To score points, the player must accumulate at least a minimum amount of points and finish his turn (press the End Turn button) before he has a roll with no points in it(a farkle). At the start of the game, the minimum is 1,000 points in one turn. After the player has a turn that scores 1,000 points or more, all subsequent turns require only 350 points minimum to score. This is fairly standard, but you can change this in Preferences...

The points, of a roll, are determined as follows:

a 1 is worth 100 points

a 5 is worth 50 points

3 of a kind is worth 100 times the number, e.g. 3 threes is worth 300 points. 3 1s is 1000. Think of a 1 as a 10.

4 of a kind is worth twice what 3 of a kind is worth - e.g. 4 threes is worth 600 points

5 of a kind is worth twice what 4 of a kind is worth - e.g. 5 threes is worth 1200 points

6 of a kind is worth twice what 5 of a kind is worth - e.g. 6 threes is worth 2400 points.

one of each number (1-2-3-4-5-6) is worth 1500 points

3 pairs is worth 500 points - e.g. 1-1-2-2-4-4 (you can change this to 750 in Preferences...)

with 3 consecutive farkles a player is penalized 1000 points

Points are scored by moving the selected dice to the "selection" area. You do this by clicking on the die. You then either roll the remaining dice or finish your turn (by pressing the End Turn button.)

The player does not have to select all of the dice that are worth points. But he must select something that is worth points before he can roll again. Play continues until the player either gets no points on a roll (farkles) or the player ends his turn (presses the End Turn button.)

If all of the dice are scored, the player can roll all six dice again or end his turn (press the End Turn button).

If a player farkles on 3 consecutive turns, the player is penalized 1000 points. This can be turned off in Preferences...
