Chance is 1 of the 2 types of card-drawing spaces in Monopoly. Chance cards are orange and are placed near the Go space. A Chance card is more likely (than a Community Chest card) to move players, often with lethal consequences (especially due to the Advance To Boardwalk card). Traditionally, the question marks placed on the Chance spaces around the board are pink, blue, and red, in that order.
Space Locations
- 1st Space: Between Oriental Avenue and Vermont Avenue.
- 2nd Space: Between Kentucky Avenue and Indiana Avenue.
- 3rd Space: Between Short Line and Park Place.
Cards
The text on each card in the current (as of Sept. 2008) U.S. Standard Edition (the "Atlantic City Edition") is as follows. Differences in one or more previous US editions appear in {braces} (where actual texts were mostly in various sizes of ALL CAPS, and when in upper and lower case might be strangely capitalized--e.g., "pay owner Twice the Rental"--though none of these peculiarities is noted below). Art in one or more of those editions is described in <angle brackets>.
