Hi again!

For dice, the outcomes are heads or tails, and since there are 2 dice, we need two levels for the diagram:

Hi there,

Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you wrote coins, but you wrote dice... give me a couple minutes to redo this.

Don't press Accept yet...

Sorry again about that... Here you go. Each die can be 1 through 6, each second roll can also be one through six. Then you add up the two rolls to get the sum, which I put at the bottom:
