P(An average player making at least 2 final tables out of 5 tournaments)=
1-P(0 FT out of 5 tourneys)-P(1 FT out of 5 tourneys)=

P(0 FT out of 5 tourneys) = .95^5 = .77
P(1 FT out of 5 tourneys) = 5 * .05 * .95^4 = .20

P(An average player making 2+ FT out of 5 tourneys)= 1-.77-.20 = .03

If there are 25 average players...
P(At least 1 player FT 2+ tourneys) = 1- P(25 players not FT 2+ tourneys) =
1-.97^25 = .533

Since the quality of players is better than average, this is a +EV bet.

I'll place as much money as I can on this one.

How much money is as much as you can?

BTW EBO this is so annoying that you went to the trouble to figure this out!!! LOL.. I was just picking numbers from the air. The funny thing is that I was originally going to make it -150 that a person will make 2 FTs!

I'll put $20 on someone making 2 final tables. PM to confirm bet.

[/ QUOTE ]

we can do it here... Tedtodd u want to do $10? Kinda dumb since I hope to make 2 FTs but atleast its some action.

[/ QUOTE ]

haha- $10 is fine, unless u deem the line unfair. but it looks like Timex might take some action.

sucks- i played the challenge the first 3 weeks- but had golf last wed, and now soccer tomorrow night....next week i guess.

yah I was just about to post jurollo is on the oregon trail. I think hes able to kill buffalo's now and he was smart enough to bring 20 boxes of bullets.

On a side note I will bet even money myself vs any 2 players in the challenge you pick that I will have a higher score than either of their highest.

When you say the field 3 to 1? who does that include those not listed as individuals?
