Today's Question - Did you say strategy or stragedy? Jack and Magic are stuck waiting for a car. They kill time with a new game. Each writes down a single letter of the alphabet. Each player may then begin asking the other questions about the others choice. The questions must be answerable "yes" or "no". If you get a "no" the other guy starts his turn till he gets a "no". First guy to guess the other guys letter gets $100. What is the best questioning strategy that Jack should adopt to help him beat the Great Gamesman, Magic?

Reveal Answer Answer - Jack\'s best strategy may seem boring but it is effective. He should begin by asking Magic if Magic\'s letter comes after "A" in the alphabet. Assuming he gets a yes, he asks the same question with after "B". So the first time he gets a "no" he has zeroed in on the letter and should win on his next turn.
