I noticed a major difference in my skills but also began to notice other things I hadn&#8217;t noticed before. In particular was the major difference that new dice make on the out come of your throw. I bought a stick of green and a stick of red dice while I was at the class and decided that I would change out a pair every two weeks just to see if I could tell the difference and wow. Yes they make a big difference and I instantly noticed the change and how my rolls were changing. I had to really adjust to the new dice and then it dawned on me &#8211; maybe this is what was part of my problem when I went to the casino and couldn&#8217;t get nearly the same outcomes as I was getting at home. I am now a confirmed practice with new dice person &#8211; you play with sharp dice at the casino practice with sharp dice. I have also recovered my practice table and noticed a difference there as well &#8211; not as forgiving with new fabric. <\/p>\n<p>\tAnother lesson learned.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Pointman on July 27, 2013, 8:48 pm<\/p>\n<div>Yes, you are so right about the dice.
