Default Odds to beat a crowd
Am I calculating this correctly? If there are 4 other players in, and I estimate my chances of beating them individually as:
70%
90%
80%
95%

then my chance to beat ALL of them is about 48%

If I'm 80% against each player, I'm just under 41% to beat them all.

Correct?

Thanks
LL
