The person to the left of the Three Man will start by rolling the dice, if any of the above mentioned criteria are met, the respective person will drink. The roller will continue to roll until either no one takes a sip or they throw one or more of the dice off the table (more on this later). If no one drinks, the dice are passed to the person to the left. When the dice get to the Three Man, the same sequence of play is maintained, '''unless the Three Man rolls a three'''.

If the Three Man rolls a three (either on the face or in summation), they decide a new Three Man and give them the distinctive item. The dice are then given to the person to the left of the '''new''' Three Man and play continues as normal. Therefore, if the Three Man does not roll a three, but someone drinks they continue rolling until no one drinks or they roll a three. If the Three Man rolls and no one drinks, the dice are passed to the person to the left and the Three Man remains in that role for another round. | ||
If someone throws one or both dices off the table they automatically become the Three Man and the dice are passed to the person to their left and play resumes as normal. If the current Three Man rolls the dice off the table, they will remain the Three Man, even if they roll a three or someone else throws the dice off the table in the next round. Note this only applies to the next round or one person throwing the dice off the table. If multiple people roll the dice off the table in the same round, the second person to do so will become the Three Man. | If someone throws one or both dices off the table they automatically become the Three Man and the dice are passed to the person to their left and play resumes as normal.
