Mediocre workers who show up are the backbone of many business plans.

Caesars Empire Builder

I should add that Caesars RCs are convertible at 100 RC ==> $1 FSP or $1 sports bet. A 10x RC promo gives you an extra 18,000 RCs worth $180 after earning 2000 RCs.

Uth: Auto shuffler deals 2 cut cards. Rigged?

I made a free blackjack trainer with a strategy coach (no sign-up, no real money)

Quote: OnceDearThis has probably been done to death, but I just re-encountered this paradox and I'm stuck on the answer 1/2, where the stated solution is 2/3
Can someone persuade me that it is indeed 2/3 and not 1/2

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand's_box_paradox

"There are three boxes:

a box containing two gold coins,
a box containing two silver coins,
a box containing one gold coin and one silver coin.

A coin withdrawn at random from one of the three boxes happens to be a gold. What is the probability the other coin from the same box will also be a gold coin?

I'm stuck thinking the answer is 1/2
Can you provide me with an excel workbook demonstrating that it's 2/3
link to original post
I don't have an "Excel Workbook" handy, especially as I use LibreCalc, but here's an explanation:

Number the gold coins 1, 2, 3, and the silver coins 4, 5, 6.
One box has coins 1 and 2 (both gold)
One box has coins 5 and 6 (both silver)
One box has coins 3 and 4 (one of each)

You selected a coin at random, and it was gold, so you selected one of 1, 2, or 3
There was a 1/3 chance of selecting 1; the other coin is 2, which is also gold
There was a 1/3 chance of selecting 2; the other coin is 1, which is also gold
There was a 1/3 chance of selecting 3; the other coin is 4, which is silver
The probability that the other coin was gold = 1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3.

Was there an active shooter?

What is the luxury gift Onyx members receive?

Kilroy — Tue, 06 Oct 2026 19:28:56 +0000

When my wife had an onyx card they gave her a Dyson vacuum, Dyson air purifier, a set of DeWalt cordless tools, a pressure washer and concert tickets for shows in Chicago. The limo ride was provided.

This was right before the casinos shut down for Covid. When the local Boyd casino (Blue Chip) reopened it allowed smoking. The other local casino (Four Winds) went smokefree. We haven't been back to Blue Chip since.
