Roll the Dice

To roll the dice can also mean to take a calculated chance. It does not necessarily bear the same risk as in a game of chance on a casino table. Companies take on commercial risks to grow their business in a highly competitive environment. It is a gamble that has the elements of both luck and ability - chances taken based on years of experience in particular trade and careful study of the marketplace.
