The input Varibles for this math problem
s = starting ante amount to play
t= the target winning pot (the sum of all the players ante up)
m=the maximum players that can participate in a round.
What I am looking For
n=number of peope the winner actually competed against. This is the least amount as possible. It can vary if you test this in excel. Sometimes i more round means less players competed. Looking for the least.
r=rounds it took to achieve this.
p=total players that participated
Example:
s=$1.26
t=$181
Round | Players In Round | Round Winning Value
1 | 9 | $11.34
2 | 8 | $90.72
3 | 2 | $181.44
The Winner competed against (19-3) or 16 people so n=16.
It took 3 rounds to do this with keeping the competeing player count as low as possible so r=3.
144 players total participated so p=144.
The target pot was (t=181.00) so $181.44 is as close as you can get to that without being under.
