Abstract: Holroyd, Liggett, and Romik introduced the following probability model. Let $C_1,C_2,\mathrm{...}$ be independent events with probabilities $P_s(C_n)=1-e^{-ns}$ under a probability measure $P_s$ with $0<s<1$. Let $A_k$ be the event that there is no sequence of $k$ consecutive $C_i$ that do not occur. We given an asymptotic for $P_s(A_k)$ with a relative error term that goes to 0 as $so0$. This establishes a conjecture of Andrews.
