DEAL OR NO DEAL

Every Tuesday in the SFGHQ Chat Room

deal_or_no_deal.jpg

If you haven't visited the new SFGHQ chat room, I have started an mIRC game of Deal or No Deal using a random number generator and other shit. PC0 made an awesome game board for the chat room, Azu has been running the cases (he's the models lol), and ssbfalcon is the phone. It has been really fun and exciting with other members egging the contestant on to take the deal or not.

Here are the money records:

Midiman: $218,000

ssbfalcon: $200,000

Wesker: $200,000

TRD: $120,000

MikeL: $103,000

Ila: $103,000

DimensionWarped: $66,000

Azu: $300

Tendo (Neo): $200

Get in there and play. We'll probably do it in the evening when there is less activity. I hope to get some sort of reward for the overall winner! :ssmile:

If you do not know how to play, you can practice/learn on the NBC website:

What, so the bank just offers you your expected value minus a certain percent? Obviously (if it's not real money), the best method is to hold old the entire time. Why settle for a decreased expected value when you can have the whole thing?

Edit: Actually, it seems to be based a little on the sample size and/or deviation (or just based on the size of the mean), but holding out is still probably best.

Statistically speaking, I'll agree that holding out is probably best. However, we won't be playing enough games for the law of averages to kick in. We aren't a casino :P

I guess it wouldn't be so bad if you were offered 100k-200k and there are lots of little ones left. But I still would rather go for 1,000,000 if I was offered 425,000 and had a 50-50 chance to get 0.01 or 1,000,000.

Of course, that's only cause it's points instead of money. No point of being first when you can be Ultra-First. But quite a point in having $425,000 rather than have a 1/2 chance of getting 0.
