Speaking about school days, I remember playing this game with coins: each of us classmates should hold some coins in the closed fist and the one who had more money in his fist took all the money from others, was shaking them in his closed palms and was throwing the coins on the windowsill. Then all the coins that were "heads" were his immediately and for other coins he should fight tossing them one by one onto the windowsill if they were turning "heads" he took them too. In the case of failing the turn would go to another player. The crazy bit was that it was forbidden to play such games in school and yet we were playing them almost every day.
Lol, as they say, rules are created to be broken 
.We used to play a different game but after school when we were on our way home or sometimes in the evenings when our friends used to go out to play. It used to be a sort of board game with six different pictures on it, like maybe movie actors, sportsmen, politicians, etc. Then there used to be a big dice having the same pictures on all six sides of it.
Now, the game used to be this way, you are supposed to pick one or multiple pictures and place your bets on them, once all the bettors have placed their bets, the person managing the board would roll the dice, and the picture that comes on the top side of the dice would be the winner, and those who placed their bets on that picture will win. Winnings used to be dependent on the amount you are betting, but it usually used to be 2x of the amount.
