    And it’s way better to take the riskier option.

    • 70% chance of 100% return = 70% expected return
    • 30% chance of 500% return = 150% return

    They’re rewarding gambling. In real casinos, the larger the jackpot, the lower the expected return, generally speaking, so they’re conditioning you to take bigger risks.

    It’s not a real wager though since you can’t opt out.
