An Enhanced Model of the Two-Player Singled Out Game

Abstract

A singled out game for two players A and B is analysed. In this game, both players are trying to correctly guess answers to yes/no questions; the first player to answer n questions correctly wins the game.

Player B has an advantage of knowing A's answer before having to announce his own guess. We analyse the best strategy for both players.
