Keep in mind that there are three attempts to get a Yahtzee in each turn, so the probability of getting one is not the same as the probability of rolling a five-of-a-kind.
It all depends on game tactics. According to Wikipedia, if someone is attempting to roll for one, the odds of any Yahtzee are about 4.6% or about 1 in 22. For a specific one, such as all ones, the probability is about 1.3% or about 1 in 75.

Your pal is incorrect because of the fact the Yahtzee in many situations finally ends up getting scratched. you're superb that a Yahtzee of all a million's continues to be 50 factors, yet you should constantly take 5 factors on the a million's or 4 of a form. Lowest plausible score is problematic to make sure, yet 21 may be the backside score for the best section, taking basically one die for each.

The previous poster has the math wrong. The odds of getting Yahtzee on the first roll is six to the fourth power to one against or 1295:1 against or .000771604%. The first die can be any number and the other four have to match it.

It's a game of luck, skill and how you roll the dice. I have asked a game place where I have lived and they said - it''s like monopoly it's a game of chance.
Hope that helps.

No, look again, Rex, the first poster's answer is correct.
Or wait... it couldn't be that the first poster changed his answer, could it?? Surely that is not what happened?!

6/(6*6*6*6*6*6)=1/1296
