I take the 100 unknown top cards of each deck, how many of the 100 cards are aces?..No, you are only drawing one card from 100 cards, the same as choosing a deck from 100 pre-shuffled decks and taking the top card.
jccc is rightConsider yToss a coin. 1/2 chance for any face value H or T. Toss 100 times still 1/2 each throw. Toss ∞ times still 1/2 each throw. yes you can get multiple heads in 100 throws but they even out over a large number of throws so in 100 throws you are more likely to get 50 H and 50 T.Now throw a dice. 1/6 chance of any face value. Throw 100 times still 1/6 each throw. Throw ∞ times still 1/6 each throw. Again evens out over a large number of throws.Now throw a 52 sided dice with a card value painted on each face. Better still deal a shuffled pack and choose the top card. 1/52. As with the coin and 6 sided dice you can get repeats but they even out. The probabilities or odds are not unknown.Probability of repeats? 4 H in a row 1/2*1/2*1/2*1/2=(1/2)44 ace of diamonds in a row (1/52)4= not very likely.100 coin tosses you are more likely to get 50 H and 50 T.Draw top card from 100 decks, then you are likely to have 100/13 aces. In reality, you will get some slight variations from these, but over a large number eg >300 the actual numbers get closer to the calculated probabilities.These are not unknown probabilities, they are known and understood.Happy fishing by the way.PS good one jccc you understand probability, we'll have you understanding QM soon. Probability of electron etc []EDIT:Quote from: Thebox on 06/07/2015 06:15:31I take the 100 unknown top cards of each deck, how many of the 100 cards are aces?..No, you are only drawing one card from 100 cards, the same as choosing a deck from 100 pre-shuffled decks and taking the top card.These are not the same question. On the 1st jccc is right.On the 2nd read what ChiralSPO and I have written above then consider:If you toss a coin 99 times what is the probability of a H on the next toss? it is 1/2.Now get someone to toss a coin 100 times and write down the outcomes. Then you choose one of them, if you choose #100 then the probability it is a H is still 1/2. You are not choosing from 100, you are choosing from 2 possibilities, either it is a H or it is a T = 1/2.So if you choose a deck from 100 preshuffled decks the probability of an ace top card is 4/52. The 99 other decks are irrelevant, you are only choosing this one.I think you are confusing probability of singular events with that of combinational events. Don't feel bad about it, this is a very common error and leads to people believing that if they have just tossed 5 H in a row, the next is more likely to be a T.
You are not considering that the coin is already tossed 100 times.
You are not considering the already set unknown sequence of a deck of cards.
The top card is not random, it is a unknown value.
Once the top card is set, it is set and nothing can change this.
You are not picking from 1-52, you are picking from 1-100 of unknown variant quantities.
I ask you to take the top card of each deck , and discard the other cards of the decks, at this stage there is still a 4/52 chance that any of the two cards is an ace.
I have a quick look, and can confirm that one of the cards is an ace. Please state the probability of the two cards now
I ask where is your own thought and consideration for the talking point?
I wish to discuss x is not equal to y, I have shown axiom logic and models and maths.
All you guys seem to do is say no, and resort back to present information, this is not really discussing my point or even trying to agree with my point.
You instantly cast something out because you do not understand it. I know from your posts that you can not see it or visualise it what I am actually referring to.

the small blind contains 7.69% worth of aces. compared to 4/52
it is possible that all 80,658,175,170,943,878,571,660,636,856,403,766,975,289,505,440,883,277,824,000,000,000,000 decks have an ace as the top card.
Quote from: Thebox on 07/07/2015 19:01:05the small blind contains 7.69% worth of aces. compared to 4/52My dear Box, at last we are in agreement.Yes 7.69% does indeed = 4/52Now you can see that the probability in the y direction is the same as in the x direction.P(y)=P(x)y=xNow at last you understand what we are saying and we can begin to explore the ways in which x and y are different.Quote from: Thebox on 07/07/2015 19:01:05it is possible that all 80,658,175,170,943,878,571,660,636,856,403,766,975,289,505,440,883,277,824,000,000,000,000 decks have an ace as the top card.Yes, I pointed this out to you many posts ago. However, as I also pointed out it is extremely unlikely to happen in anybody's lifetime.There has never been any question that there are different sequences in the x and y directions, the problem has been your misinterpretation of the probabilities and the effect they have on the games you play. You asked "is this maths correct" and we have explained that it is not correct.
I think you are confusing probability of singular events with that of combinational events. Don't feel bad about it, this is a very common error and leads to people believing that if they have just tossed 5 H in a row, the next is more likely to be a T.

Don't feel bad about it, this is a very common error and leads to people believing that if they have just tossed 5 H in a row, the next is more likely to be a T.Good point! In fact if you have just tossed 5H, it's quite likely that the coin is biassed so the next toss is more likely to be H than T!
, I would bet you could not throw another heads,
Quote from: Thebox on 08/07/2015 17:31:13, I would bet you could not throw another heads, Gotcha! You are ignoring the evidence in favour of your preconception. The perfect mug.
I am saying there is possibly more or less aces in the Y axis, which has been agreed with, and a player could ''quantum leap'' through space-time to receive another ace, and on the reverse a player could quantum leap through space-time and receive no aces ever.
QuoteI am saying there is possibly more or less aces in the Y axis, which has been agreed with, and a player could ''quantum leap'' through space-time to receive another ace, and on the reverse a player could quantum leap through space-time and receive no aces ever. This is entirely due to the randomness of the distribution of aces. It is known as the luck of the draw, or the consequence of shuffling, and is what turns poker from an algorithm into a game.However your misappropriation of the term "quantum leap" is deplorable in a science forum. What you are saying is that if you sit at a random table, there is a 1/13 chance that the first card you receive will be an ace, and the probability of it happening twice in two successive independent shuffles is 1/169.
