At work we play credit card roulette when we eat out.
Whoever's card is pulled out of the hat pays.
There are 8 of us.
I have paid 3 out of the last 4 times.
My understanding is that the odds would be: 1/8 x 1/8 x 1/8 but then I get lost.
How does not hitting on the fourth time affect the odds?
I'd like to figure out how lucky I am!
ETA: or another way of putting it, what are the odds of hitting 3 out of 4 times.
