Re: Probability of Triples in Dice

The way I figure is this.
Chances on first die: 1/6
Chances on second die: 1/6
Chances on either third or forth die: 2/6

1/6 * 1/6 * 2/6= 1/108


Someone tell me if this is wrong.

Re: Party Poker Sidebets

PP said it wrong too. Kinda sneaky of them to say it pays off 8 for 1 so that the good gamblers will take the time to figure the odds then think it is a positive bet. /images/graemlins/grin.gif
