Default Re: 8 SNG set probabilities

Brad,

I have been playing around with your exact combinatoric calculation idea in VB and I have a crude program that will spit out the probability and winnings data pairs for sets up to about 160 games. Anything more than that and the combination values are out of range for the double precision variable types. I am not a programmer so maybe there is another variable that will let it go higher. Either way, this should be high enough to show convergence with any normal distribution model.

I don't have any webhosting, so if you are interested then send me a PM and I will forward it to you. If you like it then feel free to post it.
