Assuming everything is unbiased: probability of the next slot to contain a bullet (given, first was empty) would be (1/4) = 0.25 After spinning: prob(bullet) = (2/6) = 0.334... We want to minimize the probability... thus answer should be just to pull the trigger again.. On Mon, Jun 13, 2011 at

Six-chambered revolver, so 2 bullets in sequence is the same as 1 bullet in Five-chambered. So, pull the trigger again = 1/5 + 1/5 = 2/5 (to die) Rotate again = 2/6 + 1/6 = 1/3 (to die) So, is better to rotate again On Mon, Jun 13, 2011 at 2:35 PM, Kunal Patil kp101...@gmail.com wrote:
