Hypothesis sometimes can be better than math because your not missing anything, and with math you can have a blind faith not realising what your missing. I...

You guys keep saying 1 in 4 will score a loner. I revisited the data (looks like I divided when I shouldn't have) and according to the graphic here are the...

To be candid ... I do not know what specific idea is being tested. The idea being tested seems to be shifting. So I don't have a comment on the email. As a...

Did the opps call your p for reneging and for playing twice on the same trick? How did you get the lead? Why would 1st go alone with at most only one trump?...
In the actual game that prompted the recent poll, I played trump then lead the ace of spades which he took with the 9 of trump and he held point. If I had...
I was looking through the old polls, and what I found interesting is that I would've voted differently on some. For instance this one: Question Score: 3-7...

Thanks Gerry, I edited the poll. I don't know why I wrote 4th instead of 1st. duh! A little mistake like that can really confuse things..gotta get me an proof...

Now this one should succumb to mathematics. Although, expectations shouldn't be the only thing you use to make your decisions about ordering. If you go alone,...
Now that I changed '4th' to '1st' in the appropriate place it will read easier. Some may go alone from 1st with R,L,9, because 1st seat leads first, and some...
P.S. ...to be complete ... one should evaluate the score also. In this case, playing with your partner is still advantage. See attachment. Aside:.......
It's nice when the simulator and the theoretical math give close answers. You raise a good point about considering score. Using the "probability of winning"...
Yeah, that's about right. You would be willing to lose 1 extra game out of every 1000 that you play!? Say it ain't so. It just goes to show you how close all...

... My apology, Perry. 1 game in 1000 is a more accurate depiction. (.083) But even that 1 game may not be there in your record if the luck cycle hasn't...
It's been 32 years since I took math in collage so I have to take a more rudimentary approach. Here's the way I figured it for a loner attempt: There's a 47.4%...
You've over counted the probability of the Left being buried or in p's hand. You know the location and value of 6 cards (your 5 and the upcard). That leave...
It is 2 points and only two points for a euchred loner when two defenders set the lone hand caller. Though there may be a regional variation that I'm unaware...
Yes. See pp. 14, 25, 27, 29, 37-38, 51, 55, 65 and 70, "The Columbus Book of Euchre" (http://members.tripod.com/~Borf_Books/borfeuch.htm). See also "The Law...
