the secrets of "odds & evens"


everyone love the great game "odds & evens", it's a simple way to choose who start in every game (thank you Chwazi for taking my childhood). I remember so many times I was frustrated because I loss "odds & evens", until I figure out how to level up my chances to win this game.

Supplies

all you need is 5 fingers! nothing else... (and a brain for simple mathematical calculation)

Choose Evens

probability 


when you play "odds & evens", the valid number you can choose to show with your fingers is 0-5 (let's see you show 6 :) ). so, if every player can show 0-5, the optional results are :

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

we have 11 options, let's count the even numbers

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

we have 6 options!

so with a strong mathematical skill, we can assume that choosing evens is better option for you!



Transmitting a Thoughts

tell the rival's brain what to show with his fingers


you know Ori Geller? we also can use tricks like him!

the target is to win 3-0.

first round

before the first round is start, we want to transmit our rival to choose 5. how can we do it?

before you yelling "odds or evens", you talk about the game (something like "we play until someone get 3 points, I chose evens and you odds) and the winning price (the winner will ask Emily go with him to the prom).

while you talking about the game, you open your right/left fingers and the hand should be in the same high with your shoulders. your body language should be like "let's talk about the rules, in order to avoid misunderstandings" (see picture)

this will transmit your rival to choose 5, so you can chose 1.

second round

after the first wining (hopefully), before you yelling "odds or evens", let's transmit the second thought.

say "ok, it's 1 for me". and as you say it, mark 1 with your hand. (see picture)

this will transmit your rival to choose 1, so you can chose 1 also.

third round

ok, its now 2-0 zero, and we want to win the third round.

like the old good receipt, in the same way like the second round, now we will transmit our rival to choose 2,

by saying "so i have 2 points" while you show 2 fingers from your hand (peace) (see picture).

this will transmit your rival choose 2, so you can also choose 2.


congratulation! you just win the game and you can take Emily to the prom.
