Chance

Chance is one of the 2 card 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.
