Ví dụ
Saskatoon man to 'roll the bones' in attempt to get home from Thailand amid COVID-19 pandemic.

The GOLDEN KNIGHTS ( -223), 7-5-3 at home, are the rested team going up against a Rangers squad on the first game of a four-game road trip. New York is a respectable 6-5-1 on the road. However, Vegas has won four straight matchups against the Rangers. Finally, New York allows 3.42 goals per game on the road this year. Back Vegas and roll the bones!

The law does not apply to soothsayers (thầy bói, nhà tiên tri), readers or magicians (pháp sư, phù thủy). So – whereas you can roll the bones in front of the Cathedral, have your future told, speak to your dead grandmother, cast a spell on a lover or perform feats of legerdemain (trò bài tây, ảo thuật) that defy Satan’s sense of logic – if you play a saxophone in front of that building, you are going to jail (đi tù).
