It seems like a better solution to the pie-cutting conundrum is the following: 0. Given 3 children: C1, C2, C3 1. C1 gets to cut a piece but not to choose yet. 2. C2 or C3 gets to cut the remaining cake but not to choose any of the pieces yet. Let's say C2 gets to cut. 3. C3 gets to choose one of the 3 pieces. 4. C1 gets to choose one of the remaining 2 pieces. 5. C2 gets the last piece.
