Om Fu Mi Hi
Classical Rock Paper Scissors game for children.
What are your odds of winning rock-paper-scissors? Simple - one in three. At least, thats what chance predicts.
The game has only three possible outcomes other than a tie: a player who decides to play rock will beat another player who has chosen scissors ("rock crushes scissors") but will lose to one who has played paper ("paper covers rock"); a play of paper will lose to a play of scissors ("scissors cut paper"). If both players throw the same shape, the game is a tie.
But winners tend to stick with their winning action, while losers tend to switch to the next action in the sequence "rock-paper-scissors”.
To play smart, players should completely randomize their choices - to remain unpredictable and not be anticipated by opponents or computers.
Fu Mi Hi stands for two three one in old Japanese language.
