Through my observations and experiences in having the opportunity to shoot with brand new dice (Nice sharp corners),
i've noticed quite a bit of change in numbers rolled more 7's than others.
sounds like a good deal for "dark side players"

This is definitely true. That's why I bet the dark side and win trillions of dollars every week playing craps.

Not really, just over the last few weeks, I've just noticed, tis' all.

As a grave shift dealer, I notice the dice seem to suck more often after they're brand new. I don't know if it's enough to turn the Don't Pass into +EV since, instead of counting the results, I'm, y'know, dealing the game, but I notice it as a bit of a trend. I'd think that people would catch on and bet heavy on the Don't Pass if this were true, but then again, this is Columbus, Ohio, a place not exactly known for its gambling acumen or its acumen in much of anything besides worshipping Ohio State football.

Thank you for also agreeing with me. At 7:am they change the dice at the local casino and that's when I set them 6/2 top, 2/4 facing and just roll for a 7 out after point is made. Been doing well with it just the last weekend.
Any others want to confirm?

I noticed this independently of the thread and honestly thought it was a coincidence. I haven't done anything close to the math to determine if it's true; it's just more a case of "Hey, that's weird."
And frankly, I've noticed the last couple of times I've dealt craps, the dice have been a little better after the change is made. I'm sure that, even if there is a difference, it's very slight.
