Chance has always accompanied man. He was afraid of the elusive forces behind him, but he was also fascinated. Relatively late from this fascination arose the understanding that in some circumstances chance can be measured and, consequently, with the help of mathematics to reveal the regularities behind it. It began with gambling games already known in ancient times, such as the dice game popular among Roman legionnaires, but the first serious attempts at mathematical approach begin only in the Renaissance. The history of this development is described and the purpose of this article is not to recall it, but only the account of its sounds in Poland and the circumstances of settling this account in Polish mathematics.
