Each pirate had a dice cup with five dice in it. They shook the cup and turned the cup over, but left the cup on top of the dice so they were hidden from the other players. Then the first round of betting took place.
Each pirate was betting how many dice total would have a certain number. For example, three sixes. Each pirate made a bet the first round and either increased the number of dice for the same number (five sixes) as the previous bet or picked a new number (four fours).
This would continue for another round and then all dice are revealed to see whose bet won - i.e. who was right and who was wrong so far as the numbers of dice.
Hope that explanation helps;-)

Woo, I thought at the time that this game would be cool. Looks like they made it real huh? I'm going to search for it to purchase.
