This tool analyzes the probabilities of winning for the Snaker in the game Shoot the Gap from JetLag: The Game, Season 14, Episode 3.
The game is played by three players: one Snaker and two Blockers. Each player may collect any number of items. The winner is the player who collects the middle number of items. Blockers aren not allowed to strategize.
If there is an ambiguous tie (for example, all three players collect the same number of items, or all collect different numbers but two tie for the middle), we assume this to be a tie (as this was not explained in the episode). If the Snaker ties with a Blocker and the other Blocker has a different number, this is considered a loss for the Snaker.
Blockers can maximize their chances by minimizing the gap between the numbers of items they collect. The optimal scenario for the Blockers is to collect the same number of items; in this case, the best possible outcome for the Snaker is a tie, if they also match that number.
