Default Re: Card Game

I am no math major nor do I like typing out fractions but whatever...

For the first + second one, I want to be standing right before the chance = 50% of all the previous pullers chances combined.

First person has 1/52 chance, 2nd person has 1/51 chance, I wanna be standing before the person who first has the 50% chance in that plan. What spot it is I have no idea, but I want to go before the 50% threshold is assumed in all the previous people picking. I'm guessing I would want to be like the 23rd person on line.

For part 2, the chances of each person getting it increases after the first one. So once the total pulls = 26 taken,, so I'd say I want to be the 8th person in line or so.

Someone can do the math, but I think thats the right answer.
