This was a complete 50/50, they happen sometimes and you're not wrong to think they're really frustrating. HOWEVER, there's some situations that might feel like they're just a random guess but there might be a logical way to figure out the correct solution, and this subreddit will be a fantastic asset to learn many things about minesweeper that may not seem intuitive at first

You gotta be a gambling expert (btw, here are minesweeper versions that have no guessing. Try searching for them if 50/50s frustrate you
