People typically don't use fair dice. There's often a much higher than 1/20 chance of getting a particular result

Dice are polished to remove molding marks, which also rounds off edges and makes faces different sizes

But they are polished equally on each side, right?

They often are polished the way rocks are, tumbled with abrasives, which randomly wears them down

Few expensive dice will be polished carefully

I trust internet dice rollers over commodity dice, d6 is pretty much the only one easy to get fair versions made for the gambling industry

I read a lot and own game science dice. Game science described the process in their marketing to explain how their dice were different
