    well the first card trick was a failure – the person I was doing the card trick on picked the 7 of clubs. =( however, the second card trick worked!!! =)

  9. NixuzE says:

    If anyone ever challenges you to the second trick, accept their challenge but make sure to pick two equal values, as this will give you a strong advantage.

    the exact odds for the two cards near each other trick is 61.538461%.

    i did the math.

    This answer isn’t quite right. I believed you’ve counted some combinations more than once. I know because that’s what I did on my first attempt, and got the same answer as you.

    My second attempt was a little more sophisticated, and I got 46%. This surprised me because it was under 50%. So we ran a couple of independent simulations and got the true answer to be around 48.3%.

    I’m a mathematician, so you can probably believe my maths. I intend to do a video response soon.

    say you were looking for the king of hearts next to the 4 of spades.
    odds- 2/52 = 1/25

    king of hearts next to a 4.
    odds- 8/52

    king next to a four.
    odds- 32/52

    32/52= 16/26
    16/26=x/100
    cross multiply, and i get about 62%

  21. singingbanana says:

    Yes, that is what I did at first, but multiplying by 16 means you count combinations like 4K4 twice.

    There isn’t simply four times as many ways to put the king of hearts next to a 4, as there were to put the king of hearts next to the 4 of spades. What about combinations containing 44, or 444, or 4444, or when 4 is the top/bottom card? You have to break it down into cases, I broke it down into 12 cases in the end, and that was still a bit rough which is why I didn’t get the exact answer.

  22. 125meadowbrook says:

    i figure that by looking for ANY suit, your muliplying your chances by 4… twice

  23. singingbanana says:

    Try this one. We’ll use the King Queen and Jack of diamonds and the King Queen and Jack of clubs. Just those six cards. If you agree, the probability of the King of diamonds being next to the Queen of diamonds is 1/3.

    To multiply by 4 to get the probability of a KQ pair would be over 100%! I’ll let you work out what the answer should be.
