(Therefore, if you ask at $3, then move to $6, $3 will be less likely to work in subsequent rounds.) I mostly stayed with the $6 option, only moving to $10 when I wanted a correct answer and $3 when I wanted $6 to be more likely, which seemed to work.

Query A would do the same. And, I think, query C would return about 19, on average. Unless my math is wrong (which is very possible)...consistently choosing A or B is the best bet.

I think asking the same thing, then changing to something less likely, then going back to the original query, makes it more likely to get the correct answer, so I continued to follow that strategy.

(Therefore, if you ask at $3, then move to $5, $3 will be less likely to work in subsequent rounds.)
