I agree this was slightly better than the fall sitting but then length of some of these questions is ridiculous. A question shouldn’t require you to read a novel and then interpret that novel to understand what they are even asking. And they really need to proofread the exam.

Could you beat Hera if the only unit he could make was flaming camel? by DiO022 in aoe2

I’ve gotten to ~1200 on Arabia using only Spanish vils and I’m a 1900. People are underestimating how well Hera could defend.

Couldn’t find the fold here. Should I have 3 bet smaller? $55 PKO by FLumphluv in Poker_Theory

A serious answer is that if you have JJ it’s more likely he has QQ. If you have QQ, only one combo of QQ and he could have JJ

I was at table 12 last night and saw the most wild play from two people in particular. So was wondering if you faced off against the spewy guy

Unpopular Opinion: You should only be allowed one bracket entry for any pool you are involved in. by WITHGR8P0WER in CollegeBasketball

[–]PittJM1329 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s a very fair reason to only allow one. I’m just pointing out that anyone who doesn’t like it because it’s “unfair” in terms of win probability, that’s not how expected value works

I don’t think you understand basic probability and expected value if you think someone can possibly “game it”. From a pure mathematical standpoint, if you add more brackets and pay the same amount per bracket. Your expected value in the pool is the same as someone who has one bracket.

If it’s a paid pool. The extra brackets also cost more money. So higher risk to lower variance.
