Dangerous to hit high after first rolling one (5)
I believe the answer is:
risky
'dangerous' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'hit high after first rolling one' is the wordplay.
'hit high' becomes 'sky' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'first rolling' becomes 'r' (sst letter of 'rolling').
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'r'+'i'='ri'
'sky' after 'ri' is 'RISKY'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for risky that I've seen before include "Potentially dangerous" , "Treacherous" , "too adventurous" , "Perilous" , "admitting possibility of unpleasant outcome" .)
