Numbers are players. Give each guest a number as they arrive; partners are joined with & and sit across from each other.

Running bunco for 15

For 15 players you will need 3 tables, 9 dice (three a table), a bell for the head table, and 4 sheets of paper for the score cards (four to a page). With 12 or 16 players nobody would sit out.

This is a mixer chart: instead of winners moving to the head table, everyone follows the chart so you play with as many different people as possible. Partners sit across. Roll for 21 as usual; when the head table calls the round, mark a win or loss and any buncos on your card and find your next seat.

Some bunco groups fill empty seats with a "ghost" instead, and the ghost's partner rolls for both. This chart rests 3 players each round instead, so every score on the night is a real one.

Each score card lists that player's table, partner and opponents for every round. Want names on them, a different number of rounds or a fresh shuffle? Open this chart in the planner.
