There were once 100 prisoners, who one day were told the following: "Go into the next room one by one and each turn over 50 of the 100 cards placed there, which have the numbers from 1 to 100 written on them. If you turn over the card that has the same number as yourself, you succeed. Each time a new player enters the room, the 100 cards are turned back, but their placement remains the same. If all 100 players succeed without a single failure, you will all be released”. What strategy would increase the chances of the prisoners' release?
