In Response To: Two relevant puzzles (Bob Koca)

There is a 25% chance you will pick a game that only has the 2 tosses and thus you will match. There is a 12.5% chance you will pick the set that has 3'Ts and you will also win.

Then in the remaining 62.5% of the time.. the chance of picking w the same will be 50/50.. so 31.25%

31.25 + 25 + 12.5 = 68.75% of the time

I think if I understand correctly
