... You know what's really laughable? Your 'what if' argument. You seem to be out in left field arguing with yourself. suppose at 6-6 dealing + picking up Qh...
Yes, it was an interesting point Robin made, but largely irrelevant. I'd be happy to have clubs led, if that's what's going to happen. Rarely will the pone be...
... Your partner potentially can help . More probable to help than hinder? Undetermined. If 1st seat leads suit of one of your aces, 3rd seat might play trump....
There are more holes in your argument than there are in Swiss cheese. Your arguments are obviously now for 'ego' than anything else. How do you know what has...
The player in first chair will not lead the suit of one of your aces -- i.e., you will not lead one of your aces. You have the lead in this scenario. Read it...
The probability the pone is void of clubs may be 32.4 per cent once we know a club has been led, but it is less than 1/4 at the time of the deal (my...
Sorry for that. I guess my mind played a game with my eyes . Now I'm thinking though that if one of those aces is the 'next' ace, bagging could be entertained....
Yeah it wasn't a good example. But a hand like J,J,9,10 in trump plus a side Ace would be a case where the chance of your partner helping is extremely low. The...
Yeah, I see what you did there... however what was the basis for your assumption that passing will only result in losing 4 points over 100 hands? I am...
I'm still with Natty on this one. No more to say on the subject. BTW, I've played with everyone who has been contributing to this thread I believe with the...

Robin, Both your math and your logic seem specious to me. 42% chance that eldest seat has the Ad or AH? 32.4% chance 3rd seat is void in clubs after a club...

Yeah, if it was a business trip then I would be able to put aside some time to play. A family holiday is another matter and the last thing on my mind will be...

I'm interested to know how he got the numbers also. I just did the math and my numbers were in the same ball park but not exactly the same. Just some very...
It's like herding cats with this group. - "Perry Romanowski" So true. lol If we just had the 4 pairs TO ENTER, I'm sure it would take but a week to 2 weeks...
I haven't worked on problem 1 yet but I get a slightly different answer on problem 2. Here's the approach I use. There are 17 unknown cards. Your opponent can...
It still stands that the total number of void hands that 3rd can hold are 2002. So, how many of these 2002 hands will Third be void in trump too? Since you...
... A more pertinent probability would be the percentage likelihood that 3rd seat is VOID in clubs AND HOLDS at least one TRUMP in hand, because, without a...
Perry, wouldn't the same approach as you used also work for calculating the chance of 1st seat holding the Ad or Ah. From 18 cards the number of 5 card...
Pimp'd:  Yes, your are correct! Eldest having neither Ah or Ad is 51% (ace void).  Probability of either As or Ad is 42.5%  The difference (42.5 and...
Thanks Robin, I must admit I have no idea how to calculate the probability of him having both Ad and Ah. The best I could do is to get an approximate of 5/18...
You can use the same approach. First, the number of total hands first could have is still (combin 18,5) = 8568 Take out the two aces and give them to first...
We know who you are, Mecca -- er, Max. And, thanks. Now we have eight, and enough for the first great Euchre Science Floating Venue Pairs Tournament. I'm...
