It looks like whichever die your opponent chooses, you can obtain a 2-to-1 advantage. Is it possible to design non-transitive dice that give you a bigger edge than that?
I've heard of these somewhere before; I can't remember where. It may have been an article in Poker Digest a few years ago. In holdem, there's lots of non-transitive heads-up matchups. For example, you choose any one of pocket deuces, jack-ten suited, or ace-king offsuit. I'll then choose a different one of those hands, and we'll deal out a five-card board. I always have an edge at this game. I think that example also comes from a Poker Digest article.

I'm really curious about " I've heard of these somewhere before; I can't remember where. It may have been an article in Poker Digest a few years ago.

Can anyone tell me where this article might be? Or what to search for?
