Would anyone want to take this bet and run it 1000 times?

I give you 3 hands, you pick one, and I pick one of the other 2. I will be a favorite EVERY time.


This should be no suprise to anyone and it isnt hard to figure out what 3 hands I pick, but it makes you think.

It sounds like rock paper scissors where your oppoent must show you what they're going to use before you pick what you're going to use.

It's a shame Tame ruined it for everyone.

Here's a solution that works. Use rot13 to decode:

Npr bs fcnqrf-xvat bs qvnzbaqf vf sniberq bire avar-rvtug bs pyhof.
Avar-rvtug bs pyhof vf sniberq bire gjb bs fcnqrf-gjb bs qvnzbaqf.
Gjb bs fcnqrf-gjb bs qvnzbaqf vf sniberq bire npr bs fcnqrf-xvat bs qvnzbaqf.

What is your solution, Dave?

I like this one, took me a minute to figure it out. Probably about 58sec too long, but still this is one that I'll ask my friends.

Many options, AK J10 suited and 44 work

AK beats J10
J10 beats 44
44 beats AK

This is similar to Efron's dice. Four specially numbered six-sided dice, with each one ideally suited to beat a different die's roll.

I guess the next question is which set of three starting hold'em hands is ideal? Which three give the greatest advantage?

This is really interesting. I'll have to mention this little bit of trivia the next time I have a home game.
