The dice combination of one and two, called acey-deucey, has special significance. Upon throwing acey-deucey, the player first moves a piece the three spaces to which he is entitled. He then selects any doublet and moves accordingly, mindful that a doublet, as in backgammon, is taken twice over. He then rolls again.

What are the rules for Acey Deucey in poker?

The best hand is an Ace and a two, hence the name “Acey Deucey,” because you can only lose your bet if the third card is an Ace or a two. If you are dealt two aces, split them if the first ace was called high, and the dealer will deal each ace a second card.
