Baby split or Murphy (2–7 or 3–10) This is the easiest split to convert since there are two options: A) sliding the 2-pin into the 7-pin; B) deflecting the ...

  8. Odds ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odds_ratio

    The sample odds ratio n 11 n 00 / n 10 n 01 is easy to calculate, and for moderate and large samples performs well as an estimator of the population odds ratio. When one or more of the cells in the contingency table can have a small value, the sample odds ratio can be biased and exhibit high variance .

  9. Losing-Trick Count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Losing-Trick_Count

    The underlying premise of LTC is that if a suit is evenly distributed, i.e. three players hold three cards in the suit and one player holds four, a maximum of three losers can be assumed in any one suit held by the partnership and, in turn, the maximum number of losers held by the partnership in all four suits is 24 (three in each of the four suits in each of two hands, i.e. 3 x 4 x 2 = 24).
