If the bid is less or more, the person being wrong loses just one die, not the difference. Also, 1s are including in the bid, but they get discarded when someone calls.

Not sure which is better (if either is better), but the way I'm used to playing it, I like it very much. One of those games I don't see myself turning down to play.

There are tons of variants for the game, and the one you mention is one that is widely used.

The difference is two sides of the same coin, one everyone loses a die, the other the correct bidder gains a die.

Regardless of the way you play, the game is a ton of fun.
