The colors of the squares in the grids show how you'd answer the question 'Is your preferred ace the ace of spades?' and whether you have 1 or 2 aces. The 'P=' notation in the corner of each grid shows what you're preferring; in the first case you always prefer the first ace drawn; the latter two are meant to be read together and assume that you're picking which ace you prefer ahead of time with a coin toss. The red and green squares to the side show how many of each response you could see in each case.
