Actually, that's 21 numbers.

If I understand correctly how this works, we actually need 2 permutations of the digits 0 to 9. One is assigned to the rows and one to the columns. For example, the rows might be numbered 5,3,8,6,0,2,9,4,1,7 from left to right and the columns 2,8,9,0,5,4,7,1,6,3 from top to bottom. If the final score is, say, 22 to 18, then you use the last digits, 2 and 8, to pick a row and column in the grid. Whoever owns the square where the row and column meet wins.

A score of 22 to 18 would be unusual, but it probably has the same probability as 18 to 22. I once bought in on two squares with a California State Assemblyman and we ended up with 5-5 and 5-2. It was a weird game with a touchback, and we won $150. I don't remember the game (probably a bowl game), but I remember being happy that a politician paid me off. shocked

oh my head is just aching now, too much math (also I took out the zero, so I have 20 numbers now. But thanks for the enlightenment. I never play in these type of pools usually, but I just couldn't say no to you all.

Why? I'm afraid I know almost nothing about football, although I used to play a lot of Phutball.

Why? Because a score of 18 to 22 would invalidate the Riemann Hypothesis!


Oh, oh. I've really asked for it now! scaredy
