In Response To: Ohio State ABT Results/and a question (Chuck Bower)

Assuming equal player performance, it is equally difficult to finish at any spot on the drawsheet. In other words, if you calculate the odds of all possible outcomes, you will find that all possible outcomes are equally likely. So, what does it mean to say that it is "harder" to come through second chance than first chance? Give me a mathematical definition involving probability.
