Our difference is over the wording of the question.

Those of us who say the answer is 1/6 believe that the question simulates the following:

Two dice are thrown on a craps table and one comes to rest on the 2 face. The second die spins like a top. What are the chances that the "spinner" will land on a 2?

We -- the 1/6ers -- see nothing to indicate that given two dice with one frozen to show a 2, could possibly result in 11 faces to be considered.
For the millionth time, the answer to that question is indeed 1/6. No one is arguing against that. Jihkro even explained that in his post (by the way, thanks for jumping in Jihkro).

Alan (and other 1/6ers)…you are failing to realize that the ‘spinner’ question is different from the bet you had described on the very first post of this very thread.
