Riddles

The Dice Game

Two players A and B decide to play a game. Player A takes 3 blank dice and labels them with the numbers 1-18. Player B then picks one of the three die. Then Player A picks one of the remaining two die. The players then roll their dice, and the highest number wins the round. They play 10,023 rounds. Who would you rather be Player A or B?

Almost Disjoint Subsets

Find an uncountable collection of subsets of \mathbb{N} such that any two subsets only contain a finite number of points in their intersection. Don't cheat by using the axiom of choice!
