I wasn't referring to any specific dice other than the notion of "100%" dice, although I agree with everything Mr.Z said. Since the topic is evolving from the imaginary to the possible let me add that I generally don't suspect that any dice are ever switched "Single O" (except by magicians in 'demos') and I think tops are still a favourite.... even with the mirrors. Just make sure the stick is "bought".
If I was so inclined... I would go with percentage dice and either "leave them in" as Mr. Z suggests, or more likely I would let them roll for an extended period of time and attempt to retrieve them only before they are pulled from play. Preferably I would delegate the retrieval of my property to a like minded staff member of the casino (or host of the game). |

... either way, I'm not in the picture when those dice come off. If they come off clean, I'll pay off my "partners" cut and collect my dice. If there is a beef, or my "partner" gets popped, I'm long gone and I'll let him keep the dice for his troubles... a good deal I think as a well matched set of weights don't come cheap.

Tops ain't exactly "100%" dice. Trying to hit an eight while youre only hitting 4s and 6s can turn into a nightmare after a few tosses. This thread Is more of a history lesson than anything.

Tops are 100% if you know what you're talking about.
I think 92 flunked history.

Mr. Z
you know well enough what I'm talking about. Or your reading comprehension skills are fading in your old age. |

We all like to have our fun! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1cgE2GaFko As for the blog, Daniel didn't seem to have any real success... the KipJay showed the guy rolling a 7 everytime. Possibly a little video editing? Daniel also claimed, through his testing, that it wouldn't work with those drug store dice (that were in the KipJay video)! Fake? Yes. |
