Printable 10,000 dice score sheet

Six dice, one greedy decision at a time. This pad tracks banked scores and running totals to 10,000, prints the base scoring everyone agrees on, and puts the disputed rules in a checklist — because every family plays 10,000 a little differently, and the sheet should say so.

Base scoring (near-universal)

  • Single 1 — 100 · single 5 — 50
  • Three of a kind — face × 100 · three 1s — 1,000
  • All six dice scoring — roll all six again and keep building
  • No scoring dice in a roll — bust: the turn ends and banks nothing

House rules — tick what your table plays

  • ☐ Straight 1–6 — 1,500   ☐ Three pairs — 1,500
  • ☐ Four/five/six of a kind — double the triple, doubling again per die
  • ☐ Must bank 500+ on your first scoring turn to get on the board (☐ 650 ☐ 1,000)
  • ☐ Exactly 10,000 to win   ☐ Everyone gets one last turn to beat the leader
10,000 is the folk ancestor Farkle was boxed from — same engine, freer rules. The base scoring above is common to nearly every table; the checklist covers the rules families actually argue about. Agree and tick before the first roll.

How to play 10,000

Roll six dice. Anything that scores — 1s, 5s, triples — may be set aside, and then the choice that is the game: bank your turn total and pass the dice, or roll the rest and risk it. A roll with no scoring dice is a bust; the whole unbanked turn evaporates. Score with all six and they come back to your hand hot, ready to keep building the same turn.

The pad

Each player has a banked column for the turn's take and a total running column, because 10,000 is a race with a finish line: the first total over 10,000 usually triggers one final turn for everyone else — tick that rule's box if your table plays it.

Why the checklist exists

Ask three families about straights, three pairs, entry minimums or exact finishes and you'll get three rulebooks. Rather than pick winners, the sheet prints the near-universal base and makes the disputed rules a pre-game checklist. Thirty seconds of ticking prevents the argument at 9,850. Want the boxed cousin's fixed rules instead? That's Farkle — sheet here, and the game itself is playable here.

Frequently asked

Can you steal another player's leftover dice? Some tables let the next player pick up where a banker stopped ("piggybacking") — house rule territory; add it to the margin if you play it.

Do triples have to come in one roll? Yes in most rules — dice set aside on different rolls don't combine into a triple. Agree if your table differs.
