Default Re: probability of n ties in a race to three (roshambo)

thanks, sometimes I think phzon forgets that he isn't talking to grad students. Is there an easy way to see this? Link to derivation...

phzon...when you look at problems like this are you like "duh.... so obviously geometric distribution, and so obvious that it is equally like to end in two decisive throws as three."

Thanks though, your input is always appreciated.
