Why can't my dog guess which hand the treat is in?

I think she has a good sense of smell. Better than mine. She can find treats when I hide them in the house. But at least half the time she picks the wrong hand when I put the treat in one of the hands and then get her to pick. She'll usually go over and start sniffing and licking the wrong hand! It's weird! Is her sense of smell really inferior to most dogs'?

Ilya and Lola had trouble playing this game at first. I just opened my hand with nothing in it and he would choose the other one but, it wasn't his turn anymore. Rats! Lola chooses the right one of course because she knew which one was empty and she was rewarded with the treat.

Now, they both use more effort to get it right the first time. LOL... or, he could pull one of Ilya's trick of giving me a high 10 to wack both hands at the same time. S I G H ....
