First of all Mr. Chow its impossible to prove if NJ cheats, In fact its easier to prove that it is not. NJ has a great feature, showing 100 rolls. I never said it rolls lucky doubles, neither I said that it makes lucky rolls to enter. It just puzzles me that after playing so many games I always have harder time to enter the board than the computer.

If you mean prove in the sense of an absolute mathematical proof than you are probably correct. However, the issue you raised is quite testable from a statistical standpoint. The only question would be the level of statistical significance one would consider to constitute "proof." Admittedly collecting enough data to gain a high degree of statistical significance under controlled conditions is not an easy task -- although it could be simplified with software modifications -- but it is far from impossible.
