Canโ€™t be bothered working it out, but a handy thing to remember is that doubling 10 times is roughly equivalent to multiplying by 1000 (2^10=1024)

Consider b^x & x^b (for b>1)โ€ฌ
โ€ชWhen x=0, b^x > x^b (1>0)โ€ฌ
โ€ชWhen x=b, b^x = x^bโ€ฌ
โ€ชWhen xโ†’โˆž, b^x > x^bโ€ฌ
โ€ชSo graphs touch/cross at x=bโ€ฌ
โ€ชWhen b<e, graphs cross at/after x=b (b=2 crosses at 2 & 4)โ€ฌ
โ€ชWhen b>e, graphs cross before/at x=b (b=4 crosses at 2 & 4)โ€ฌ
โ€ชSo ฯ€^x<x^ฯ€ when xโ‰ฒฯ€โ€ฌ

P(0aces):4/6*3/5=12/30
P(1ace):2/6*4/5+4/6*2/5=16/30
P(2aces):2/6*1/5=2/30

(9/16) vs (1/16) => 90%

Although Iโ€™m happy that this continuously increasing percentage could reach 100, it seems like more justification is needed to prove it doesnโ€™t approach some finite limit
