Ok, chances of an OLL skip are 1/216, and chances of a PLL skip are 1/72, most cubers know that. But I'm having trouble in finding other skip chances like, maybe:
- 1 pair already inserted after a not extended cross
- 2 pairs already inserted (not independent events, right?)
- LL skip on a 2x2x2
And probably many more skipping chances of different puzzles can be calculated. I'm sure you smart people can do it.
This is what i've found:
3x3x3 skipping chances:
LL skip: 1/15552
OLL skip: 1/216
PLL skip: 1/72
Megaminx skipping chances:
LL skip: 1/933120
OLL skip: 1/1296
PLL skip: 1/720
