Subject: RE: Memorable raffle prizes you have won
Can't remember what we won; but there were once twelve prizes on offer at a church bazaar here in Haddenham, so there were 12 separate draws. Valerie and I had 10 tickets, and we were 8x winners! We only accepted the first one and told them to redraw for all the others. But it was generally agreed a remarkable actuarial event. Wonder if any games-theeorist around here would like to calculate the odds against such an outcome?
