Since all three men raised their hands, the winner knew that there could only be two possibilities. There had to be two blue and one red mark, or three blue marks. If there was a red mark on any forehead, the two men with the blue marks would each see a red and a blue mark and know immediately that his had to be a blue mark since all three raised their hands. The smartest man deduced that since nobody answered immediately all three marks must be blue.
