1194 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 11 | 2 | 2 | 17 | 34 | 34 | 0 | Surrender the 10er, but get 7, 8, 9 and 4 for 28 - enough to win. I need 11 on 4 to beat a 10 x 10 strategy; I need 34 on 8 and 9 to beat a 34-33-33 strategy. I initially had 21 on 7, but I hedged my bets just in case I run across a copycat strategy. (7 on 21 loses to a 25-25-25-25 strategy anyway, for example!) I could very very well fall in the first round, but I can also see this strategy work well. |
