A achieves to shoot the goose with probability 1/2, and B succeeds to shoot it with probability 1/4. The outcomes of the shots are independent among them. The goose is killed if at least one of the hunters achieves to shoot it, and it survives if both of the hunters miss it. Because the shots are at the same time, if the goose is killed, none of A and B is sure that, indeed, achieved to shoot it.<BR>\n" );
