1. Sample Size

2. Imagine that you area golfer of above-average ability and that you have the opportunity to play the greatest golfer in the world. If you want to maximize your slim chance of winning, how much golf would you elect to play, given the choices of:
1 Hole
18 Holes
36 Holes
72 Holes

3. One Hole: The shorter game gives the weaker player a much better chance of winning. To beat the world’s best golfer, you would need fewer lucky shots in playing one hole than in playing eighteen.
