BET ON THIS MARKET AND GET 2!*

What is the probability of winning for each action (if played)?

(Tic tac toe against an opponent who chooses random squares)

Board state:

 a | b | X
---|---|---
 X | X | O
---|---|---
 O | h | i

Choosing an Action

When this market closes, one of the options will be chosen with the following distribution:

  • 99% chance: Square with highest probability.**

  • 1% chance: Choose a random square (uniformly at random out of the 4 options).

Then, an O will be placed at that square. Afterwards, an X will be placed at a square chosen uniformly at random.

Then, a new market will be created with the resulting board state and with the same rules for choosing actions. New markets will be created in this manner until the game is over.

Market Resolution

All options not chosen by the process above will immediately resolve N/A once this market closes.

Once the entire game has been decided, all markets will resolve in the following way:

  • The option chosen above will resolve to YES if Player 2 (O, played by Manifold users), wins the game.

  • The option chosen above will resolve to NO if Player 1 (X, played by randomly chosen moves), wins the game.

  • The option chosen above will resolve to PROB 50% if the game is a draw.

(1/3 chance draw)*50% payoff + (2/3 chance win)*100% payoff = 83%, right?

@HthePenguin Technically, it should be slightly lower because of the 1% chance of deviation, but I believe the initial 66% was too low.
