Not true. The greater the number of rolls, the less likely it becomes that
the results are exactly the expected value.

True, but as the number of rolls approaches infinity the distribution will
be exactly that.

2 occurs 1 out of 36
3 occurs 2 out of 36
4 occurs 3 out of 36
5 occurs 4 out of 36
6 occurs 5 out of 36
7 occurs 6 out of 36
8 occurs 5 out of 36
9 occurs 4 out of 36
10 occurs 3 out of 36
11 occurs 2 out of 36
12 occurs 1 out of 36
But not in EVERY 36 throws. Any stat-head out there want to calculate the
odds
of that EXACT distribution occurring in one series of 36 throws?
