a pure hr on the 2/7 roll or 2 pure hr's on the 2/4 and 2/5 roll?

2 & 12 = 1 chance
3 & 11 = 2 chances
4 & 10 = 3 chances
5 & 9 = 4 chances
6 & 8 = 5 chances
7 = 6 chances

so 4 & 5 (7 chances) is better than 7 (6 chances)

You have a 16.67% chance of rolling a "7"

You have a combined 19.44% chance of rolling a "4" or "5"

Therefore, a player with a pure HR on 4 and 5 would be preferential.

Here are the dice roll percentage any time you roll two dice:
# %
2 2.78
3 5.56
4 8.33
5 11.11
6 13.89
7 16.67
8 13.89
9 11.11
10 8.33
11 5.56
12 2.78
