Seriously,

I know half ya' all are math geniuses. It's a fun question....seriously.


If I have all place bets on all numbers.

The probability that a 4 hits 4 times before a 7 is 1.2%. What is the chance that in that run, that I hit some or all the other place numbers at least 13 times?

Or,

The probability that a 4 hits 3 times before a 7 is 3.7%. What is the chance that in that run, I hit some or all the other place numbers at least 8 times?

24.6% assuming you stop after the 4th 4.
38.3% for your second scenario.

Anything is possible. Rocko rolled 5 hard 4's and 3 easy 4's along with other numbers yesterday morning but then next time he got the dice he rolled 1 hard 4 and then a couple numbers and 7'd out.
