Cannot get program to compare two statements

Question

My program is working fine other than when it supposed to check to conditions against each other. I'm not sure why but it just seems to skip it without even trying (I imagine I have incorrect syntax or something)
roll is defined earlier in the same class (and by same way with random numbers) as roll2
while (true) {
die1 = (int)(Math.random()*6) + 1;
die2 = (int)(Math.random()*6) + 1;
roll2 = die1 + die2;
System.out.println(roll+" First");
System.out.println(roll2+" next");
if (roll2 == roll) {
System.out.println("IM IN THE FIRST LOOP!");
wins = wins + 1;
break;
else if (roll2 == 7) {
System.out.println("IM IN THE 2nd LOOP!");
losses = losses +1;
break;
I just don't get why it won't check roll2 against the value of roll as well as pass over roll2 == 7 when the value of roll2 is equal 7! I'm sure this an extremely n00b question but any help is appreciated.

i do need to exit that while loop. Heres the main chunk of code, should help make a little more sense.
if (c == 'i') {      //program enters loop if user inputted "i"
while (x == 'y') {  //x is initially assigned character "y"
while (true) {
die1 = (int)(Math.random()*6) + 1; //randomly assigns value to die1
die2 = (int)(Math.random()*6) + 1; //randomly assigns value to die2
roll = die1 + die2;
rollz = checkroll(roll); //value of roll is sent to be checked and returned
if (rollz == 0) {       //if user loses the game, this loop is entered
losses = losses + 1;
games = games + 1;
break; }
else if (rollz == 1) {  //if user wins the game, this loop is entered
wins = wins + 1;
games = games + 1;
break; }
else {         //if user needs to roll again, process starts over
while (true) {
die1 = (int)(Math.random()*6) + 1;
die2 = (int)(Math.random()*6) + 1;
roll2 = die1 + die2;
System.out.println(roll+" First");
System.out.println(roll2+" next");
if (roll2 == roll) {
System.out.println("IM IN THE FIRST LOOP!");
wins = wins + 1;
break;
else if (roll2 == 7) {
System.out.println("IM IN THE 2nd LOOP!");
losses = losses +1;
break;
break;
System.out.println("Would you like to play again? (y or n)");
x = TextIO.getlnChar(); //x is assigned character user inputs from TextIO.java
if (x == 'y') //user plays another game if they choose 'y'
System.out.println("Starting new game. ");
else if (x == 'n') {      //user ends game play and loop is exited
System.out.println("Thanks for playing. ");
break;
