%N a(n) is the numerator of the ratio of winning probabilities in a game similar to A370823, but with a draw and single round odds A:B:draw of 3:2:1.

%C Such a game can be implemented, for instance, by rolling a single die per round, with A winning the round on numbers 1, 2, 3, B winning on 4, 5 and a draw on 6. To win the game it is necessary to win n rounds in a row. The draw also terminates winning streaks of A or B.
