determined by a coin toss, with the outcome of one coin toss having no effect on the others. Each person can see the other players hats but not his own. No communication of any sort is allowed, except for an initial strategy session before the game begins. Once they have had a chance to look at the other hats, the players must simultaneously guess the color of their own hats or pass. The group will win if at least one player guesses correctly and no players quess incorrectly. One obvious strategy for the players, for instance, would be for one player to always guess "red" while the other players pass. This would give the group a 50% chance of winning the game. Can you device a better strategy?
