I think that P(win/push) should be divided by 1-m. Although, I'm not sure, because I'm not a professional mathematician.

I don't recall using my qualifications instead of an argument. I add it afterwards to illustrate how ridiculous it is for someone to be so sure I am wrong that he is unwilling to rethink his position. See the comments I made in white. My arguments in this thread and elsewhere stand on their own.

I don't have enough math skills to Lord over someone how much better at math I am. And because I know what its like when someone tries to make me feel small.

Reread the thread in order.
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Sklansky posted a question.
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] I gave a correct partial qualitative analysis within 30 minutes.
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Djames gave a mass of incorrect calculations leading to a contrary qualitative answer.
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] I said that incorrect answers had been posted, and I gave a nearly complete and correct quantitative solution. (Asymptotics remain to be determined.)
[img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Djames responded by suggesting that I am arrogant, clueless, and irrational, but he offered only the argument that my conclusion disagreed with his intuition.
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] I said I'm willing to bet that I'm right, and that it is a bad habit to assume you are right when a professional mathematician corrects you.
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] You tell me I am trying to make djames feel small.

I would object less to the last if you had objected to the abuse he gave me when I posted a correct solution. As is, it looks completely biased and out of place. I had far more reason to attack him than he had to attack me, but I was far more polite, yet you criticized only my tone.

This is a complete waste of my time.
