[edit] Walkthrough
Geralt finds his first starter box of dice just outside Haren Brogg's place in the Outskirts, in Act I. As the witcher is making his way through the village, he comes upon some bandits who are harassing a dwarf, Zoltan. Once they have been taken care of our hero finds the curious boxes in the corpses of the recently deceased ruffians. He asks Zoltan about them and the dwarf teaches him the basics of dice poker. After that, he is on his own.
The ultimate goal is to beat king Foltest, a legendary poker player. In order to do so, Geralt needs to start from the bottom of the "food chain": beat four novice players, then four professional, then three sharpers before reaching the top of the food chain, the king.

I got my hands on a box of dice. It looks like dwarven handiwork. Is there a story to it? I need to find someone who can tell me more about these dice.

I learned that the dwarf named Zoltan Chivay can tell me more about dice poker. If I meet Zoltan, I should ask him about poker.
