POW #7 is still OPEN!

 

 

A few hints:

 

·                  There are 6 equally likely shooting orders:  BCD, BDC, CBD, CDB, DBC, and DCB.

·                  If Brian is out and Dennis shoots first at Caldwell, exchanging shots until one is hit, you should show that Dennis wins 5/9 of the time and Caldwell survives the other 4/9.

·                  Dennis may not be the best shot, but he's very clever and not afraid to think "outside the box".

 

The first participant to identify the correct strategies and determine the probabilities of each player surviving wins the prize.
