Is this considered cheating in a game?

[brianat]

Hello everyone, 

I'm not a gambler but I do need help solving this debate I have with my friend and I thought that this was a good place to ask and get a consensus.

Last week my friends and I were playing a game and it was based on the total number you have on your dice.  ( the game name doesn't matter too much but the game was called Risk) While getting ready to throw my die, my friend blew at my die with her mouth from a distance of about 2.5 feet. We got into a pretty heated debate about if it was cheating or not and if I should re-roll because she may have had a hand in my dice being blown into a different position. 

My question for you all is if what she did was cheating? We both want to know who was right so we can put this debate to rest for once and for all so please let me know in the comments. 

Thank you everybody!

What a bizarre debate 

 

But isn't it a superstition that blowing on the dice whilst in your hand is classed as lucky? I'm sure it is. It;s just a superstition though and if I was in the debate I'd be arguing that it had no real impact on your dice roll.

Hahaha...what a funny thing to argue about! The way I see it, only sore losers would complain that it is cheating! The dice are still in the hand...so what blow anybody makes to the dice has absolutely no effect at all on the outcome of the dice throw! If the dice were blown whilst being thrown, then that can be argued!

 

Where real casino play is concerned, once the dice leaves the hand, there must not be any 'disturbance' to the flight of the dice...meaning you cannot touch them...you cannot even blow on them...which would affect the final outcome of the dice. It's just like if you blow on that roulette ball whilst it is spinning around the wheel...no can do!

Difficult to answer.

Did she try to get you a 1 or a 6 as outcome  with this blowing ?

One thing I know for sure , swallowing your dice is strictly forbdden.

Yep...swallowing any dice is strictly forbidden...and the same goes for getting naked just to show off your brand new red shoes too!

U can test it.

You should throw your dices ten thousand times with blowing on them, and then throw them again thousand times without blowing, and compare your winnings.

I suppose the result of both tests will be pretty the same

That's a whole lot of blowing they'd have to do just to end up with the same results

If she can blow well enough to convince a die to roll in her favour before it is tossed... give her my number..
