Who will get the last slice?
Three friends Anthony, Bruce, and Carol are sitting around a circular table. Starting with Anthony, they each take turns flipping a coin and then passing the coin clockwise around the table. Whenever somebody flips heads, that person must leave the table.
Who is most likely to be the last person at the table?

Since they take turns flipping the coin and Anthony flips first, Carol is most likely to be last at the table because the person who flips last might not flip the coin as much as the other people.
