I work on Monte Carlo simulations professionally for casino slot games.

I wish that more depth was presented here: what percentage of the time do you get favorable vs unfavorable outcomes with each strategy? For further depth, use different types of players (with different exiting conditions).

Perhaps I should write such a blog post at some time..

That post would probably be of interest to a lot of HN readers. If you want, we can look over a draft if you send it to hn@ycombinator.com. Sometimes we can make suggestions that improve an article's appeal to this crowd.

Same offer goes for anyone else who's putting a lot of work into a post they hope will interest HN.

Thanks dang. I may very well take you up on this offer.
Please do, I'd love to read more about this!
