Problem Statement

Game with 2 dice, even number of players

Players sit around a table, game begins with 2 opposite players, 1 die each.

On each turn, the two players with the die roll it.

If the player rolls 1, they pass the die to their left neighbor

If the player rolls 6, they pass sthe die to their right neighbor

Otherwise, they keep the die for the next turn

The game ends when one player has both dice after they have been rolled and passed. That player loses.

In a game with 100 players, what is expected number of turns the game lasts?
