We start by exploring and analyzing the various aspects of Penney’s game, examining its possible outcomes as well as its fairness (or lack thereof). In search of a fairer game, we create many variations of the original Penney’s game by altering its rules. Specifically, we introduce the Head-Start Penney’s game, the Post-a-Bobalyptic Penney’s game, the Second-Occurrence Penney’s game, the Two-Coin game, the No-Flippancy game, and the Blended game. We then analyze each of these games and the odds of winning for both players.

In this paper, we begin by discussing different types of preference profiles related to the stable marriage problem. We then introduce the concept of soulmates, which are a man and a woman who rank each other first. Inversely, we examine hell-pairs, where a man and a woman rank each other last. We generate sequences enumerating preference profiles of different types. We also calculate sequences related to the egalitarian cost, or "quality", of a matching. In total, we introduce and discuss 30 new sequences related to the stable marriage problem and discuss 6 sequences that are already in the OEIS.
