Hi sebalotek, A couple comments:
1. In your headings for columns 2 and 3 you write, "Average #Matches". I think you mean average number of games, right?
2. I agree that the average number of rolls per game is around 50 (my guess is 55), but that's only if the game is played to conclusion. When the cube is in play, the game could end with double/pass after just a few rolls, so the average number of rolls/game depends on the score of the match. (And it's probably lower on average in matches with many games. Why?)
3. For tournament scheduling, the average number of rolls/game might not be the best number to use. Tournament organizers also have to worry about the worst case.
I see some information related to this in the second link you posted in your first message.
Tom
