\nAsk your opponent to select any one of the four dice. You select another and both dice are thrown, at the same time, a predetermined number of times, to see who gets the highest number on each throw, and hence wins that throw.

Whichever die your opponent selects, your choice, in a longer run of ten or more throws, will always win.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
