Ancient cheating dice discovered 3h5g2l

If you have been looking for off-the-books tricks for beating casinos, then you might be glad to hear that cheating in gambling is not a new phenomenon in the industry. Although online gambling requires a lot of skill and mastery of the game in order to cheat, many people still manage to beat the systems and get away with it. Recently, it came to the attention of some researchers that the cheating practice is as old as gambling itself. This is especially after one peculiar dice was discovered recently during excavations in Bergen, Norway.

Estimated to be more than 600 years old, it is believed that this dice was used to dupe fellow gamblers while playing, given the fact that it has two sets of 4 and 5. According to archeologist Ingrid Rekkavik, this dice was used to play a certain game by the name "e-Dix" whose aim was to achieve a total of 10 after rolling a dice thrice. Well, to be honest, it is quite comforting to hear that founding fathers of gambling also tried to cheat their way to winning, isn’t it? At least we are not alone in this!
