If there was a button that would give you $1,000 each time you push it with a 1% chance of dying

There are 100 marbles

99 are green. One is orange

Orange kills you. Green is worth $1K

If you could possibly do it the best way imaginible: you pull all 99 green in a row

Not likely

Once you get to 50 wins in a row, you are now pulling with a less than 50% chance of success. Closer and closer to definitely losing with each draw

Maybe COMPUTER RNG works differently than that but having a 1% chance is exactly what I described above. The RNG is trying to REPLICATE the marble scenario. And it could be said that RNG is synthetic. Fake.
This is only correct if are 99 "monies" and one "death". In this example, there is a flat 1% chance to death, so every time you press, there is a 1 in 100 chance you die, and 99 out of 100 chance to get money. It never said the odds increase per press.

It's not that difficult to understand, ANY attempt leaves you 1% likely to die. The odds of getting consistent non-death results decrease as your attempts increases but each individual push is the same.


Everybody getting on Ghost Utmost (cuz he keeps standing on wrong lol), but I’m convinced more than half this thread don’t understand this. They just keep repeating “it’s a 1% chance of dying with each push!” :snoop:

Philly bouls, Trust the Process
The most you could possibly get is $99K before certain death

And you everything after $50K is more likely than not to kill your ass

You gotta be the brokest, least responsible person to entertain something like this

One million per press is probably a better set up. At least then you're risking it all for something that can change the lives of those you leave behind
You have a 1% chance of dying each time. Sure after 100 pushes you'd expect one to be death, but if you've gotten through 99 presses without dying you still have just a 1% chance of dying on the 100th push of the button

That's not how probability works
The chance is 1% on each button press these odds never change, it is theoretically possible to press the button 1 million times and still not die however the likelihood of this happening is absolutely micro in comparison to dying after 100 presses. You could get an almost infinitely higher amount than $99k with insane luck
