Consider the following game played with an ordinary deck of 52 playing cards: The cards are shuffled and then turned over one at a time.

In addition, the player is said to win if the ace of spades has not yet appeared when only one card remains and no guess has yet been made. What is a good strategy? What is a bad strategy?
