Because the Game is Random this should not be Possible!?

That is incorrect. The game is not random, not if you are seeing the results. Are you seeing the results as you guess? You can keep making better and better guesses based on past information.

I got 33 right which is probably the average amount you should get.

In answer to your question if the first one was red and the next one was black then flip a coin if it is heads pick red and if it is tails pick black. There is no advantage in that particular spot.

This is where we are Years! If not Miles apart in the way we Think!! Maybe it's a Class thing? Or just that as a baby you had more Milk than me!

What kind of a comment is that?

I am sorry, notwithstanding your milk argument. You are incorrect. After 1 red card and then 1 Black it is 50 50 on the next card. And I am sorry but if you think that the average number of correct guesses in that game is 26 then you are very wrong.

Instead of making derisive comments at me why not try explaining your ideas, then everyone can take a look at what you think is the right answer.

That is the average number when you are guessing, but you are not guessing, you know the composition of the remaining cards. Since you never read what I tell you, I said the average value of that game is about 33. That game is not random and that is easy to prove.

And yes after one red and one black it is even money. That is why I said flip a coin, also even money.

Try listening to me for a change before going off the deep end.

Lets say after 44 cards are drawn I have 22 right just by guessing.So I will average 22 out of 44 just with guessing. Every once in a while the last 8 cards will be all red or all black. Now I am not guessing. I pick 8 reds or 8 blacks. I end up with 30. Do you see it now?

I will try one more time. I have been giving you math fact. Lets say I pick black every time. I can not do worse than 26. But everytime the last card is red. I will have guessed my 26 with some cards left. They will all be red. Now I can never do worse than 26 but when the last few are red I will do better than 26. My average is higher than 26.

Do you know how to converse without sarcasm or invective? I am a person like you. Do you know how to behave? You have been warned about your behaviour. Please stick to math, comments like that are easily misunderstood.

I have, twice with what I think are really nice pieces of analysis. I am sorry that you will not meet me at least half way. I have tried everything I can. You cannot and should not call someone elses work rubbish.

Why mention that I am a moderator, so what. I am someone answering a question. Or trying to answer one.
