Hi.

This sounds like a homework or assignment question, which we can't help you with.
You've pretty much answered your own question though 'When you flip a coin you have a 50% chance of winning'. The number of times the coin has been flipped should have no effect on the outcome.

I'll close this thread for now. If I am wrong, and this has nothing to do with schoolwork feel free to PM me an explain, and I will reopen the thread.
