Interesting Prop

Let's say you can call your roll, every time. Who would win? Assuming you can't call doubles on the first roll, what would you call? And what would the response be.

Now, aside from who would win, it would also be fun to see if, using xg's dice distribution feature, you could actually call the best roll every time.

And of course, let's play the same game where you get to call your opponent's worst roll. Who would win, and what would the correct worst roll be every time. I would make one caveat, however, if you opponent is on the roof you can not call a roll that dances, otherwise the worse rolls is simply too easy to call.

By the way, I always thought 5-1 and 5-2 were the worse opening rolls, but XG seems to indicate that 5-2 and 4-1 are a little worse than 5-1.

So let's say your opponent gets an opening 5-2 and splits. What is your worst roll response? Answer below......

Answer: 4-1 or 2-1. Now, keep going. Not an easy prop.
