Default Re: Recursive Probability?

(3,1) is the game state where there are 3 red marbles, the special marble and one blue or green marble remaining. There's a 30% chance you pick a red and the non-red, which ends the game before the player has acquired 2 red marbles. The extra 1% is a mistake; I'll post corrections in a minute.
