How much do you want to bet? (Preferrably a very large amount - US$1000
or so :-) )

Read FB, page 5, "Rerolls", 2nd paragraph, 2nd and 3rd sentences. I
quote: "If this reroll is ALSO a six, then apply the damage and roll
again. There is no limit to the number of rerolls you can make if you
keep throwing sixes (but if you get more than three in a row maybe you
should go out and buy a lottery ticket this week...!)."

So, if you use a house rule limiting the rerolls, you're correct. If you
use the FB reroll rule, I am right :-)
