+            <strong class="uppercase">How to play:</strong> The goal is to make over <strong>10000</strong> points. You roll six dices and take points. If you score 300 points and above, you can end the round and score the points. This is the score table:
+            <ul>
+                <li>Single <i>fives</i> <strong>50</strong> each</li>
+                <li>Single <i>ones</i> <strong>100</strong> each</li>
+                <li>Three of a kind <strong>100 x [number]</strong> exception three <i>ones</i> scoring <strong>1000</strong></li>
+                <li>Four/Five/Six of a kind doubles the <i>Three/Four/Five of a kind</i> points</li>
+                <li>Straight <strong>1500</strong></li>
+                <li>Three pairs <strong>1500</strong></li>
+            </ul>
+            If you cannot take any points, you get a <strong>Zilch</strong> and end the round. After three <strong>Zilchs</strong> in a row, you get a <strong>-500</strong> points penalty. If you scored with all six dices, you cann roll again.
