For someone who's a total degenerate gambling addict nothing's going to make a difference except multiple times going down to the felt and not just in terms of chips, I mean all money.
A table has three poker cards on it, flipped face down. One ace, one king, and one queen. If he flips the ace, he wins $1,000. If he flips the king or queen he wins nothing. 2 in 3 times he will see zero dollars and 1 in 3 he will see $1,000. He can play as many times as he wants, but each time the cards are mixed up on the table. How much should he be willing to pay to play the game each time?
Actually, he could pay up to $499.50 each hand and still win money over time. Because for every two he loses he will still win $1 on every third hand. On average.
I assumed the fee to play was a sunk cost. In your scenario, it cost him 1498.5 to win 1000.00. A net loss of 498.5. You are talking about blackjack (or a similar table game) where he'd get his bet back plus the 1k, I think.
posting a 2p2 question on styleforum = -EV
Look, the answer could have been read Skansky's Theory of Poker's chapter on deuce-seven triple draw, but I don't think that will explain it to anyone.
In this paticular instance I would just be taking money from my left pocket and putting it into my right, and a bulge in my left pocket works better with my sillouhette. I also sense part of this derranged gambler's addiction is to the casino environment and specific house versus player games.A better question is, why would you want to? Someone has to take his money so it may as well be you!
