Apparently Bunco has quite a loyal following among the domestic female set in many areas. I only heard of this game recently. Here's an article from a few months ago on the culture of Bunco in Montana:

When the final round begins, the women are loosened up. The music and the buncos are a little louder and the traveler is harder to get a hold of. Women like Foss don't want to give up the pink toy.

The head table sounds off when the game is over to the tune of squeals and grumbles. The scores are tallied and Miranda brings out the prizes, which are goodies from Pier One Imports.

"In this group we play for gifts and in my other group we play for cash," she said.

A fairly complete set of rules of Bunco are here; it is less complicated than Yahtzee and although there are many variations, and it's often played for money, no versions I read about have any element of skill or even choice. I suppose the mechanics of the game make it more entertaining than getting together for a hard night of "high card wins".

Wow, no idea what bunco is. Thanks for pointing it out. Will research it.

Craps, now, *that* is a game for women!
