"Rocks" unprofitable at 3/6

Nick, this is consistent with what I would expect to find with small sample sizes ("several thousand hands"). Dice players will tend to be both the biggest winners and the biggest losers in a small sample size. And since 2/3 of all players lose money, "most of the rocks and eagles" will lose money as well as most of everyone else. You would need an enormous database before the people at the top of your database actually represented the best players.

Yeah, this does make sense.

To be honest, I didn't notice that the phrasing in the post I was responding to left the possibility open that some dice players were among the biggest losers.

But if that's the explanation, the post was deceptive, whether intentionally or not.
