Why do I keep getting unnatural amount of doubles?

I had 6 month break from BGA, and now when I have played Backgammon again it feels like I get multiple times more doubles than 6 months ago. I think games without a single double were quite regular, and most of the time I got 1-5 doubles per game.
Now I have played 10 games and I think in every single game both players have got close to 10 doubles or even more. A game without a single double roll seems to be extremely rare.
Is it just me or are the dices rigged to make the game feel better or something?

Well, actually I had couple of games with just 2 doubles. Anyway it feels like the game gives more doubles than what it used to give. Have my opponents and I just been lucky?

sounds like you're describing randomness?

Your unused doubles were accumulating during your 6 month long break and are now being paid out as you are playing again.

I bought Premium to calculate my statistics. Actually recently I have had 0,3% more doubles than average, not much.
Maybe just last 7 games or so have been lucky for me, and when my opponent said he has had way more doubles than he should have had it tricked me into thinking I have had too.
