--
Your agent has infiltrated a life or death poker game in a hidden back room of a grand casino. Your team is on the trail of an elite society of assassins, each of whom carries a signature playing card corresponding to their role- everyone at the table is either an assassin or a potential victim. Can you identify the assassins and save the victims? Alex Rosenthal shows how.

That is not what I expected, for an ally in the riddle story to be revealed as a traitor. This needs a sequel, or a prequel that focuses on the assassins.
It isn't expected. In fact I would go so far as to say that it was an unfair addition to the riddle.
@@ZevVeliA riddle is supposed to make us think in different ways
Spoilers man
@@maapauu4282 Yes, but a riddle is also supposed to be fair. There was no indication that the option of a double agent existed. In fact the wording that "Excluding the agent there must be at least one assassin and at least one target" gives the implication that the agent falls under neither category and will simply be collateral damage when the assassins attack. In fact, taking the wording into account it is extremely easy to make as a first assumption that the target was, in fact, an assassin and work from there, only to reach a paradox when you realize that the rest of the people at the table must also be assassins. Yes, it is logic that makes sense in retrospect, but it is also unfair. Had the rules been "There are four people at the table, you know at least one of them is a target and at least one is an assassin, a fifth player comes in that you do not know if they are a target or assassin" then it would be fair. But the fact that it is your agent, and you have a presumption of innocence there gives a bias.
@@pooydragon5398 Why are you watching comments under a riddle video, without watching the video prior? People will talk about the answers here ^^;
This needs a sequel.
“Live and Let Calculate”
“From TedEd with Love”
“License to Math”
I can see them now!
oh im sure they will :)
I agree! This is too good to be just one story.
I agree this is toooo good
@@jessicadecuir5622 if only it were license to science!!!
TedEd can write a spy movie better than Netfix. The twist, the plot, everything is amazing. MatPat needs to make a video.
The LORE of TedEd Riddles! but hey. its just a theory...
Spy x family
Cool idea
I know! Matpat so needs to make a riddleverse video. We need to band together and comment on all his videos to do the riddleverse video
@@potatoslices4920 A GAME THEORY (more like film)
I DIDN’T EXPECT THAT TWIST- I thought when they revealed that player 2 and the agent had that same card that the agent got tricked, and they were the only victim 😭
I just assumed that the assassins were killing themselves
That's what I thought too! I was second-guessing everything I did, only for it to have been completely right, and the twist! Shocking!
Same here! I thought they were going to say "it was all a trick: your agent is the intended victim and the others are all assassins who lured her here to kill her!"
But no - BETRAYAL
Same thought. "It's a trick, they are planning to kill your agent"
SAME, THEN THE BETRAYAL HIT ME SO HARD-
you know it’s a good day if TedEd uploads a riddle video.
I do agree with this comment.
Agreed 👍💯
Yes but who actually solves it because I only like the story
Omg
I agree!!
The suspense???? The intrigue??? The twist??? The orchestral score????? THE ORCHESTRAL SCORE????? A masterpiece
a cinematic masterpiece
THE ORCHESTRAL SCORE THOUGH
I was suspicious about player 2 first, but then it occurred to me that rule two said there was one victim and one assassin besides the agent. We all thought the agent was independent, but I then thought about the wording of “not counting your agent”. I thought the agent was also an intended victim, but to think she was an accomplice…
I sat here for like 10 minutes thinking that the agent couldn't be involved, because they couldn't be a victim. Just to find out she's an assassin?!?!?
Is there mathematical proof that the assassin can only be the agent?
@@alm2187well from the rules we know that not including the agent, there is at least one assassin and one victim. So among all the 4 orignal players, all of them had a duplicate card. since we know that the robo dealer is fair and can’t swap out cards, so we know that players 1,3, and 4 are assasssins as they share a card from the flop (the 3 shared cards). So that leaves between player 2 and the agent, who both share the king of diamonds. Since players 1,3,4 are assasins that leaves player 2 to be the victim (since there must be one victim that isnt the agent), this means that the duplicate king of diamonds belonging to the agent, is her signature card.
I was spoiled that there would be a twist because of the way YT displays comments, so I didn’t rule out 2 or the Agent until the others were revealed.
@@rolliepollie941 Per the rules, there's at least one assassin and one victim not the agent. The agent being the victim cannot be true as it invalidates "one victim not the agent".
Every time I watch a new Ted Ed riddle I think to myself “this time, I’m actually gonna try to solve it” then I just wait for the answer to play
Yeah but whenever I try i can never get it😢
You gotta try it, it's so rewarding when you get it right ^^
Just give yourself one minute, and if you don't have a clue, you can still watch the answer
If I understood the riddle, it would've made sense
@@Hendrik_FI had no idea what it meant. I thought it meant to the right and left meaning the order of all the cards on the table shown. Not the shared cards.
@@HelloHamburger That's understandable, I also didn't get right away. They explained it in a weird way.
My point is just, that it's more fun to think about it for moment, sometimes you can figure out what they meant, even if you didn't get it right way :)
Although sometimes I don't understand the question at all, even after thinking about it. It happens...
I completely missed P2 and the Agent having the same card. I quickly figured out P1, P3, and P4 were assassins and thought it was almost too easy but then I was completely blind sided by the twist. Well played Ted Ed, well played.
Same!
Ditto
I think that's how the riddle is supposed to go? There's no way you would think to stare at the cards and notice the duplicate
Yeh, the same mistake is mine
it's like that video where they ask, did you notice the dancing bear in the middle of the basketball players? we were paying attention to one thing, and tuning everything else out
The riddle and its revelation was more chilling and suspenseful than some spy films
True
😊😊😊😊😊😊
True LMAO
I liked the premise from the beginning but after watching the video's ending I want to see it as an movie/series/...anime...
I love the foreshadowing of a "victim" just being able to walk into a high stakes game that presumably was carefully planned out and veryr senditive
"All you get back is a poker face..." was COLD. Nice riddle, this needs a sequel!!!
I thought player 2 was an assassin, thinking our agent was playing fairly, but then I got a headache trying to figure out who the victim was. I also want a sequel for this story, please.
Same, I was thinking because the agent had the king of diamonds, that must be the real one, so the one P2 had was fake. It confused me so hard
I figured that the agent *was* the victim
"Not counting the assassin, there is atleast one victim and one assassin"
If the agent was not an assassin, that means there were no victims leaving the assassin which is against the rules and thus the agent is the assassin
@@Deaddev1 well yes, I know that now. Unfortunately, I missed that at the time.
I thought some of the victims were cheating lmao
"Not counting your agent, there's at least one victim and at least one assassin"💀
well, yeah that's not wrong, player 2 was a victim, and player 1, 3 and 4 were assassins.
Through the presented info, it was assumed that your agent would be considered a victim, but it was never confirmed.
More like "Counting your agent, there's at least one victim and at most four assassins"
yeah they gave it away 💀
@@khangphuc778That would spoil the reveal, the sentence is correct. There was indeed at least one victim and one assassin among the four players, only so happens that for that to be true the agent needs to be an assassin too.
@@lachlanwu2838 Yeah I know. I solved for 1,3 & 4. But I was not ready for the betrayal. Agent done doin' me da betrayal, son,
I gotta admit I was really confused when I tried solving the riddle myself and everyone had a duplicate card. That definitely took me for a spin because I was so confused as to why everyone seemed like an assassin.
The ending was intense and emotional, and then Ted Ed threw in "a poker face"
I just can't 🤣🤣🤣
Thats actually even more serious since the assassins game is a poker game
I think this is one of the few TedEd riddles where I was *this* close to the truth. The conclusion about three cards was already there, but I couldn't conclude the reason behind the agent and player 2's King of Diamond. Turned out it was the plot twist after all. Awesome writing, TedEd!
I love how player 2 isn't even supprised, he just sits there.
He's probably just too shocked to have a reaction, I'd be if at the start of a shady invitation-only poker game, some lady barged her way in and then like ten seconds later some guy jetpacked me out of the room.
I ACTUALY SOLVED ONE OF THIS , WITH THE PLOT TWIST AND EVERYTHING I FEEL SO GOOD OMG (only took me 15 minutes and searching for my own deck of cards)
Thanks Ted-Ed for yet another fun riddle
"All you get back is a poker face" really had me with a smirk 💀
Spoiler
The plot twist was insane, I actually thought that the spy was supposed to be the victim
Wouldn’t make sense for someone going to the situation the victim.
@@Tuturial464 please do keep in mind that my brain is not good at it’s job lol
How about you dont spoil it
DONT SPOIL 😭😭😭
No offense but… why are you looking through the comments if you didn’t watch the video yet? That’s asking for spoilers
There's no bloddy way I just solved this. Why do I feel so smart suddenly? Thanks for the riddle Ted, my day just got better :)
You guessed that the spy was an assassin
@@tristanreyes8590 You don't need to guess if you've solved it lol
I really appreciate the efforts behind the story telling.
It'd be so awesome if Teded made a choose-your-own-adventure riddle video where every riddle character so far needs to fight every antagonist of the riddleverse for their 10-year special.
Before revealing the answer:
The shared cards' values always include one King and two Queens. Their suits always include two Spades and one Heart. Since there is only one deck dealt by the robo-dealer, there cannot be duplicate cards, so the shared cards include one King of Spades, one Queen of Spades, and one Queen of Hearts. This means that the Queen of Spades from Player 1 and King of Spades from Player 4 are both signature cards. Also, the King of Diamonds from Player 2 is a signature card because it matches the King of Diamonds from the Agent. There is at least one victim, so Player 3 is the only victim.
After reveal:
OMG, I didn't even bother to check Player 3's cards. That's an amazing twist though, so I can't even be mad.
I actually managed to solve this one and I'm so glad I did. This one was so good.
already guess something is odd when there 2 King of Diamond on the deck
@menovat this was a better mystery than what the hearthstone team hyped us up for in murder at castle nathria XD
@@placeholder6974 You're gonna have to tell me under which username I know you.
the fact ted-ed can make a spy movie as a riddle that’s better than most spy movies is surprising
edit : er my gerd!!! 27 like!!!
Who knew the twist got me suspenseful than i could ask for. THIS IS AMAZING, TED ED!
Was not expecting that ending
While I normally wish TedEd did some non-math-based riddles, I did have fun on this one. I think it'd be really fun to see everyone work on this (especially the long way) and coming up with different wrong answers. I got they're all spies and 3 is the victim but my logic started by assuming the agent couldn't be the assassin and player 2 was automatically out. Good game!
The agent actually being an assassin is the only logical option; when she entered the room, it already contained at least one victim and one or more assassins. That means that the second player must be the victim because he was present at the start; the agent having a matching card makes her the odd one out, therefore the card that is a duplicate of the one originally in the room was brought from outside the game; therefore an assassin.
No, the cards were dealt after she entered the room
Can we talk about the scoring for a second? The music in this is just *chefs kiss*, the suspense, the climax. Adds so much to the video.
There's actually more info than you need here. After the first two lines about the shared cards, you can count that there are a total of 6 kings and 6 queens at the table. Since an assassin switches out only one card, that alone means that there's 4 assassins, regardless of any card suits. Then, knowing that Player 2 and your Agent both have the King of Diamonds, that means that one of them has to be an assassin, meaning your agent must be an assassin, as they weren't "Invited" to the game.
Nope.
Using this logic, you can't figure out, if p2 or p3 is an assassin. For example:
Second player's signature is the King of Diamonds and agent's signature is the King of Clubs.
@@xelnaga64 Victims don't have signatures. When you have overlapping cards, it is definitive implication that one or the other is an assassin. Since we know that agent isn't a victim (as the op stated, she wasn't invited) she would be the assassin.
OPs logic is sound for this particular example but honestly only works on this type of setup due to there not being more victims than one. Since we already have conflicting cards (i.e. we determined at least one victim) and the remaining players equal the number of assassins we can just assume all those players to be assassins. If there were more victims, we would have to look at the individual hands themselves in order to determine the victims from the assassins.
@@bartudundar3193 I didn't quite understand your reply, and I guess you didn't fully understand mine. I was saying that taking into account agent's being assassin, and using OP's logic, we can't say whether it is p2 or p3 who is the victim
@@bartudundar3193my point being that although p2 and agent both have the king of diamonds, they can still both be assassins. Once again: without information about the colours of shared cards we can't say whether p2 or p3 is the victim
Spoiler Alert (Duh!):
I genuinely tried to solve the puzzle, and the moment I realized that the only possible solution is where the agent is also an assassin, my pupils expanded considerably. I thought "This can't be right!"
And it was so much more satisfying when my deductions came out to be true!
BRUH I figured out that player 1,3 and 4 are assassins, I overlooked the two kings of diamond and I immediately thought "oh sh!t all of em are assassins" and then bam! plot twist, at least one victim aside from the agent so the agent must be the assassin too 😬😬
I spotted the double king of diamonds as first, then the other three. So I assumed some of the assassins were also the victim.
I actually figured it out. I thought out that Player 2 had to be an Assassin because of the shared card. I figured out the other 3 from the same logic (although instead of making a table, I wrote down all 3 possibilities of cards with the suit in subscript) . Then when I noticed that all 4 were assassins, I was like okay tedED doesn't make MISTAKES but maybe the card inages were just there and I overthought?(bad habit), but OMG THAT ENDING!!!!
The music at the end was amazing
TED used to do a lot of those riddles and I loved them. You should do more!
I think the reason Ted-ed said "a %100 reliable source" is that in every riddle video people always comment "Or our information giving team was liyng." and "The real answer is that everyone is a lier." so I think Ted-ed wanted to stop that.
This has got to be the biggest plot twist in Ted-Ed riddle history. Absolutely insane to think that I had no idea until right before it was revealed
I didn't get the final bit, but for once did manage to work through the first half successfully. I'm getting better with these.
This really needs a sequel!! What happens next?
A few seconds after fleeing with the victim, the heat death of the universe happens and everyone dies. The end.
When I saw the two king of diamonds I thought I identified the first assassin, and so I was out of victims in the end. I did not expect the twist and thought I was getting something wrong.
Another day, another ted ed riddle solved. I have no idea how to play poker and I was so relieved when it said I don’t need to know the rules.
I actually *completely solved this,* and then discarded my solution as impossible because no matter how I looked at it, it seemed like every player was an assassin. What a twist!

Bro needs to tell me where he finds this stuff. These are amazing riddles. They're fun, make you smarter, and the story-line is a work of art. LEGEND
Great riddle video Ted-Ed, your riddle videos really made the video so much greater. I was wondering for a while in the riddle whether was the agent or player 2 the assassin, and I did not know there were 4 assassins out of the 5 players. Can't wait to see more of your videos soon. 🥰🥰
When you watch the riddles more for the storyline than the actual riddle
Edit: thanks so much guys for 40 likes ive literally never gotten this many
They gotta make a part 2 of this
This was genuinely cool to decipher. I pulled table top sim out to help for fun and started counting the cards thinking player 2 was an assassin. I deciphered the three center cards and used those to find the other three assassins to get four assassins... wait wait wait what? Going back to the rules, I read rule 2 which stated that other than the agent there was at least one victim. But that doesn't make sense unless player 2 is a victim. But if that's the case then... then that means the agent is the assassin!
Can you solve it?
No, but I prefer the plot.
I was so wrapped up in solving the puzzle I didn't spot the twist at all. Very nicely done.
Imagine if she comes back in a another riddle video.
This is the first riddle from TED-ED that has a twist like that and I love it.
The fact that I actually solved this, makes me feel like I'm Albert Einstein. Please upload riddles more often, most of them are amazing
wow.
this had to be a trailor bc I want more. Or a part 2 to this riddle.
What would it look like?
@@melvinfranco2142
1. Turns out the partner wasn't an assassin after all but a double agent who gained the leader's trust so she can tell you where his hidden lair is. However, it's in the Infinity Hotel and you only have a few minutes to find the leader and figure out the code to shut down a device that would unleash the fire and ice dragons on the city. With the following clues, figure out what room they are in and the code to stop the dragon invasion.
2. The assassin has kidnapped the green-eyed governor and had taken them to her dictator boss' private island. You enlisted the help of an elf-like creature who accidentally overslept again and they could only give you a few pieces of information before being abducted. The governor is in one of an infinite amount of rooms, but luckily your uncle was the Demon of Reason and taught you everything you know about logic puzzles. Find the room the governor is in and get them out...
This is the most exciting riddle ever!(I didn't expect the plot twist!)
Riddle videos are the best i love youre channel!❤
I love the creativity with the concept but the amount of stretched scenarios make me giggle 😂. Love these riddles
The one thing I like about Ted Ed is the quotes in the beginning of the video
A riddle with a plot twist? Love it.
that was such a GOOD plot twist. I knew that players 1, 3, and 4 were assassins, but i never guessed the spy was one. SO GOOD. Can you add a sequel?
This is the best ted ed riddle I've seen so far
"100% reliable source"
What do you mean? Passenger Pidgeon Worldwide is the most reliable company ever!
Step 1: confirm you have green eyes
Step 2: ask the assassins to leave
Lmao good reference
Aaap! No, they got abducted and failed the test.

step 2: ask your agent that will she say ozo if she's the victim
step 3: ask the assassins to kindly leave
I need a sequel with a face-off between the two
Grandpa wake up from your tomb, a new TedEd “riddle” video just dropped
A day without tedEd video feels like something is missing.
I'm like obsessed with ted Ed.
I knew from the start there msut be something odd as she had an extra card, she only knew about the robot fly and this must imply that there is at least 50% change of not being trustworthy!! But that plot twist was WOW!!
the creative stories always make me so happy
I really love the riddle sequels and series!
I managed to solve this all the way until the contradiction with the last queen, I guess you didnt specify that the agent isnt a assassin but by itself it feels as if saying she is involved would break the set rules of the riddle, so i just assumed something is wrong. its really cool that the twist ties to the narative of the riddle but it made it kinda unsolvable to me.
Well, if you rule out every other possibility, what remains must be the truth, and all that.
Not an intuitive puzzle to be sure (I myself was also stuck for a good while), but the solution does fulfil all the rules.
The same happened to me. The trick was to look at the wording of rule 2 again, which, knowing the answer to the riddle, was actually hinting that the agent was an assassin. It's a twist written better than a lot of movies.
I don't completely get it. So, in this particular scenario, the assassins excluding the agent each had one card that the robot showed as part of the shared set. But how do we know that these cards are the assassins' signature cards instead of the fair cards the robot dealt?
The shared set had to be dealt by the robot (i.e. none of the assassins could've swapped the cards in the shared set out) and there can't be two duplicates of a card with the same suit and character on it.
This is such a good riddle pls make a part 2 so we can see what happens afterwards
BRO… I didn’t except that twist, I thought the story for the egg machine one was amazing this one is FIREE, Ted ed writing team are my idols
we need more riddles with twists
Best riddle yet. Never expected some sort of spy movie from TED-Ed, but wow am I living for it
i love these riddles so so much!!
tysm ted-ed!!
That plot twist was insane! 👏 Well done!!!
PLOT TWIST : #2 was an assassin and you were played
Well played Ted-Ed, well played.
Man I'm so in love with these riddle, bright side does indeed have but ted ed is onto another level
I got there by a slightly different route. I did the math on the word clues that there had to be exactly 2 queens 1 king and 2 spades and 1 heart, but I didn't try to figure out the order. That meant there were four possibilities for the three shared cards, king of spades, king of hearts, queen of spades, and queen of hearts. I saw immediately that there were two kings of diamonds on the board, but my takeaway from that was that since each assassin has only a single signature card, that the king of hearts in player 2's hand must be real. So now I knew what the three shared cards were and was able to out players 1, 3, and 4 as assassins. I actually got stuck there for a while because of the twist because I was treating my agent's cards as both true, meaning player 2 is an assassin due to the king of diamonds I used earlier. So now I was stuck with no victims. I eventually figured it out by just throwing a random idea at the wall of reversing which king of diamonds was fake and the result matched up with all of the puzzle's conditions.
Ha ha I couldn't solve the riddle the way it was explained, but I was lucky to predict who the killer is - I just thought "what kind of a twist can there be in this story?" And hilariously i wasn't wrong.
I was confused at first because I assumed "to the left" meant directly on its left and forgot it says "somewhere" so I immediately guessed 134 but my mind was blown when the agent and victim had the same card. Didn't even notice.
I immediately noticed that and assumed that Player 2 was the assassin. didn't make sense to me at all why knowing the shared cards would even be helpful- might have been nice if they explained that.
@@irishmanfromengland25i think it’s because there cant be duplicate cards (i.e. queen of hearts was a shared card, but player 3 had it, so player 3 swapped it their own aueen of hearts)
@@moonyeclipsey I get that, but it would still be nice if it was explained. maybe it's just the ADD that made it not make sense.
@@irishmanfromengland25"the robot dealer is dealing from a fair deck". A fair deck doesnt have duplicate cards
@@alex2005z yes, I get that.
Dang, I got the 3 that were originally at the table but didn’t even notice the duplicate card, that was a good twist. I wouldn’t have expected a better twist from a TedEd riddle than most movies coming out these days
That twist was legitimately worthy of a spy movie. I got way too invested in the plot.
That was unirinically ine of the best plot twists in cinema, can't belive the agent would do such a thing, we need a sequel with a detailed backstory that explains her motive for this.
That agent who had the dupe with 2 caused me endless amounts confusion.
Out of all the riddles Ted ed games I've watched,this has the most plot twist-dramatic funny ending😂
Loved the twist in the tale.
The plot twist 😮
I got it wrong because I solved it backwards and jumped to conclusions. The shared card between player two and the agent was the very first thing that I noticed, and so I assumed he was an assassin, and followed the resulting logic to get player four as an assassin as well. I then used the info about the community cards to deduce a third player, and in my haste and excitement I took process of elimination for granted and failed to check the final player. If I had, I would have seen the contradiction and probably gotten the right answer. Oh well, better luck next time.
I often just watch these riddles but never solve them, just watch them. The animation is perfect 😅
whyd i get actual chills from that
Doesn't the victim know that all they have to do is confirm they have green eyes and ask the assasins to leave?
THEY HAVE NO GREEN EYES! SO THEY GET THROWN INTO THE VOLCANO!
I can't believe I still didn't understand how we concluded 1,3 and 4 were assasins
I had to double and triple-take the rules to make sure I wasn't missing anything. But there was one thing I didn't consider that did follow the rules. Nice one!
When I figured out every player had an assassin card, my first thought was that it was a trap for the agent, not that she was a double agent.
