Strange things happens playing this game.
Incredible lucky strikes for some players.
My last and least game we had the same points and my opponent at the last shot had 3 six, then 4 six, then 5 and she had just the yahtzee option remain.
Now I understand how some players have some classement.
Games could be win or lose, but not this way.
This is called cheating.
Bye bye guys, it wasn't a pleasure.

Am I right thinking he or she has direct line to Een or Sourisdudesert telling - now I need 3 6 and now please 4 6 and write down, I need yahtzee of 6 in next turn. Can I please also have it?

Who are you mocking here?

I am absolutely serious

Chance that one specific dice changes to 6 on 2 remaining thows = 1/6+5/6*1/6 = 11/36 = 30,55%
Chance that two dices both change to 6 on 2 remaining throws = 11/36*11/36 = 9,33%

This means, that if one needs on his last shot 2 6 using 2 dices with 2 throws remaining, about 1 of 10 games it happens like in your case.

more general:
Chance that one specific dice changes to a specific number (e.g. 6) after 3 throws = 1/6+5/6*1/6+5/6*5/6*1/6 = (36+30+25)/216 = 91/216 = 42,12%
Chance for a yahtzee on a specific number (e.g. 6) on a shot: (91/216)**5 = 1,33%
As there are 6 different numbers, the chance for any yahtzee on last shot is at least about 8 percent, if you select the number which appears most often after 1st throw.
