The small straight is completely different, rather than being a 4 long straight it is explicitly a straight of 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5.
The large straight is only a straight of 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6.


This makes the odds identical for both straights, but has the large still worth more points.

Be aware the rules linked from Wikipedia are NOT the rules implemented. The rules implemented vary a great deal from the real rules, and make the game much more random and luck-based.

The rules for 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind, small straight, and large straight are all different.

In this implementation 3 and 4 of a kind only counts the dice used in the pairing, not the other dice.

This makes the odds identical for both straights, but has the large still worth more points.
