Keep in mind that 3\/4\u201d dice would be 19.05 mm, which I have not yet found.<\/p>\n \tThe weight per pair of dice ranges from 17.66 g to 19.58 g.<\/p>\n \tThe dice at the casino with 19.60 mm edges (single die) weigh 19.58 g a pair. The dice at the casino with 19.10 mm edges weigh 17.68 g per pair. Obviously, there is a correlation between die size (cubed) and weight.<\/p>\n \tThe significance of the variation in dice is less significant than table conditions.<\/p>\n \tMy survey showed that casinos with harder tables ( layout over wood\/slate) use the larger, heavier dice. Casinos with softer\/bouncier tables use lighter to midrange dice. Generally speaking. But this might be happenstance.<\/p>\n \tOn a side note, I am finding that bouncy tables, on which a dice no-roll occurs for most shooters, is more often caused by over stretched layouts than by underlayment. On such tightly stretched layouts, give them a year or two, and they might lose the bouncy tightness from the periodic cleaning. Or, spill a large glass of beer on your landing zone, and come back after it\u2019s been cleaned and dried. Another option is to do as Dr Crapology did on one occasion – cut your finger and bleed on your landing zone, just a little will do. Get the Stickman\u2019s attention and they\u2019ll stop the table and vigorously clean that up pronto.<\/p>\n \tNote: The dice you can buy from Amazon and eBay are all, every one, smaller and lighter than any casino dice. Don\u2019t use them. I have ordered the new GTC dice ($9 a pair, $16 per sleeve), which are midrange size and weight.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Posted by:<\/strong> bminus1 on October 23, 2019, 11:25 pm<\/p>\n \t PS: I think the conversion from 0.75 inch is 19.05 mm.<\/p>\n \n\t________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Posted by:<\/strong> Preacher on October 28, 2019, 5:56 pm<\/p>\n Great analysis Preacher, very enlightening. I have also observed that some tables seem to ‘age’ probably due to the layout relaxing.<\/p>\n \t PS: I think the conversion from 0.75 inch is 19.05. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n \n\tThat\u2019s what I said! 19.05 mm. \ud83d\ude09 Thanks, I made the correction.<\/p>\n \tMy wife, RollTide4Ever, my youngest son, and I made a weekend trip to Lake Charles, LA. The only casino with a crapless table was a 14 footer with an amazingly bouncy surface. There must have been rubber (cell filled foam) under that layout! We left and went to two nearby casinos. Both had microfiber on wood – a bit soft but very playable. We played at the one with the most tables. My wife and son are coming along nicely. Before going to the tables, I gave them a few pointers on adjusting to table conditions. Both had two rolls each in the upper 20\u2019s, so I am pleased with there progress. My son is ready for our next trip.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So s@mall dice vs big dice differences to throwing them and we’re they land what do you guys do.
