How dose the house always win? Are they simply cheating?
In: Mathematics
People just can’t calculate that risk is *the same* as loss
…in the same way as
magnetism is the same as electricity. (Electromagnetism)
If you can lower risk then you profit.
It’s clear at the roulette table with the zero on which only the house wins.
It’s also clear on the back of a lottery ticket where they’ve done the maths for you with (approximately)
“This ticket is worth $0.0000000000001”
Q: Why would you exchange $1 for $0.0000000001?
A: Because you’re an addict with mush brains. You know it’s wrong. You know there are better odds elsewhere and yet you can’t stop because dopamine has hijacked everything.
