In the game of Yahtzee, five of a kind can be scored as a Yahtzee, as four of a kind, as three of a kind, as "Chance", or as a full house in the lower section, or as 5 of whatever number in the upper section.

The only reasons to ever score it as anything other than a Yahtzee are:

  • You already HAVE a Yahtzee
  • You've already "taken a zero" for your Yahtzee
  • In very rare cases, if using it in the upper section is the difference between you making the 63 points required for the bonus or not
