Hello all,
I'm looking for a die that has two 5's and no 2's. Does anyone know what these would be called or where to get them? I found several sources for cheater dice, but none that fit this description. I'm asking here because it is for a bizarre effect. I'll check "The Gambling Spot" as well, but I'm not sure if this type of die would help in a dice game or not. Thanks Courtney

Add 3 points to the 2, you'll get a 5. Plus, it will be on the right side, opposite to the 5.
Otherwise it's called a DOUBLE NUMBER DIE (only one point mispotted). The best thing to do is to ask a wooden Toymakers to make one for you. There are also routines working with such dice, like one of the versions of the nail under the styrofoam cup. You may also check here once in a while: http://www.gamblingcollectibles.com/equipment.html and here to be more precise http://www.gamblingcollectibles.com/equipment2.html (they currently sell some on p.2) or Ebay.

Curator,
perfect thanks. That's a really cool link, and I really like the idea of a wooden toymaker I think that's the way to go for me. "Always better to ask the spookies than the cheaties " Indeed! thanks again.

Here is a site I know of that should be able to help you obtain gaffed dice. Go to the contact page and e-mail David Malek david@markedcards.org He should be able to get you in contact with a dice maker. Hope this helps Sincerely Adrian |

Hi,
I've always used these guys for my dodgy dice. They sell something called "Twice Dice" which have two of any number you care to choose, whilst missing out the usual opposite side value. http://www.highland-games.co.uk/Dodgy-Dice.php They're very good value too. Cheers, Matt |
