I've happened to get on-line with what littl free hours I had left on my free Isp account. I see we are still vigorously trying to find the absolutes in the ...
Well, I want to thank those of you who post to this group. I can honestly say that I have learned a great deal here. When I first started this group a couple...
I am always still learning. Anyone who says that they have nothing else to learn is giving you a line of B.S. Once someone has thought they have mastered...
Try as I might, I can only identify 1 question in all of that....ummm...whatever it is. In the 2nd paragraph, you said "Can one ever truely[sic] attain...
Sorry there, but I was trying to say something in length but here it is in simpler terms. Yes I am still learning myself. But whatever stage of learning...
Do the best thing you can do. Thats lead trump if you have it. If you don't have trump. Lead next. For example if Hearts are ordered up you lead diamonds....
Hi Ed, ... next I agree with everything you said up to this. If he's got a loser, it has equal probability of being diamonds (next), clubs, or spades....
... Sorry, Ed, let me recant that. Since there's one less card in next, he IS less likely to hold next. But....so is everyone else, so that alone doesn't buy...
I drudged this up from message 747 since it never got any responses. I've tried to summarize the pieces so far. We're talking about ordering the R from 1st...
... True, I can only determine the probability of a loner hand when the J of (say) hearts is turned up. But these odds will be no different if I repeat the...
No, we're not, but I'm not really into going thru this for the umpteenth time. It's old, it's stale, and not a single person, including yourself, has made the...
No, the experiment is not valid because you're manipulating one of the datum that should be included in the set of data being randomly distributed during the...
If my P leads next, I shoot him. That's just begging for the dealer to overtrump my P. If you don't have trump, and don't have an A (which is *obviously* the...
Well naturally, yes you would lead an ace if you didn't first have a trump. I was going on the assumption that when Gerry said he was four suited and his...
You see you can not do that with a computer program because of one simple reason. On paper or on the program you may show or have a stopper before the hand is...
Jed, you have to take in to consideration the hand of Seat 1 and what you ordered up. Seat one is four suited. Ok now we dont know what suit he has a...
... Me, too. More so, now, than before. Just this weekend I had a chance to do this. We were leading 9-6 and opponents had J turned up. I ordered it up. We got...
Stats are fine, but not when the premises they're being applied to are false, and/or when the way they are produced isn't accurate. So far, we don't have any...
Hi Jed, ... This is amazing, because those assumptions I COPIED FROM YOUR POST (see message 741). Now you say you're not in agreement. ... Nor have I claimed...
Hi Ed, ... Yes, of course, and that's an excellent point, but one which I already addressed. We have to assume capable defenders, so they won't toss a...
Hi Randy, ... Please don't think this in any way proves donating is better than passing. The Pistons are a great team, and they win most of the time. In fact,...
Hi Jed, ... What?!? That isn't how it works. The hands that don't have a J as the turnup are not of interest. If you feel it's important to continue...
... Not just on one hand. I am merely taking MORE notice of when this condition arises. In the past, I would not have paid a lot of attention to it. Now, I do....
... I understand. But my point is whether it happened once or 100 (or 1500!) times, it still says nothing at all about the likelihood of success while...
**(This is touchy subject at times because they can be both intertwined at the same time.) When applying what is practical and what is mathematical we comes to...
No, you didn't copy them from any message I've posted. Instead, you've taken what I've written and twisted it around to suit your own purpose. If you'd like...
