This sounds surprising to me.
So educate me on this hypothetical:
Player A is me. I've played quite a few games and generally know what I'm doing, but may make a few minor mistakes. Player B is the best cribbage player in the world (whoever that might be)
Say I get a series of hands, which I'll call X.
So for example, I get [3,3,4,6,9,K] on hand 1, [A,2,3,7,8,K] on hand 2, and so on.
And say player B gets his/her series of hands, called Y.
[A, 4, 4, 6, 7, J] on hand 1, [2, 3, 4, 8, K, K] on hand 2, etc.
What percentage of the time would both of the following be true?
1) I lose against player B.
2) I would have also lost against player B if he had gotten the X hand series, and I had gotten the Y series.
I feel like this percentage is would be extraordinarily low. Am I wrong?
