I remember I was calculating the EV of going to physics class this year, b/c we had a quiz and I wasn't sure if it was the same as the one that the earlier class took. I think I remembered figuring out that there was roughly a 66% chance of us having the same quiz. If it was the same, I'd pry lose 3 points (17/20), and if it wasn't, I'd lose 8 (12/20)

EV = .33(-8) + .66(-3) = -2.64 - 1.98 = -4.62 = 15.38/20 = GOOD ENOUGH FOR MEEEE!

Awesome thread.

Two things I say on a regular basis are "Nice hand" when someone does something well and "Nice catch" when someone gets lucky. SHIP IT!

I do a few from the thread. I peek under napkins and such like they're cards. The other one I do the most is applying multiple runs of situations in life. If I took this quiz 1 million times with this much preparedness, I'm probly lookin at about a 75% or whatever. Basically thinking about everything in terms of EV.

When you're watching the Sopranos and anyone refers to Anthony Jr as "AJ", you always think "ace jack".
