Yes I am amazed how stupid a few people can be. You are not going to be offered bets of coin flipping risking 1 penny to make 2 each time you win. It is not serious. Trading however is serious. You need to make sure you take from what the market offers each day.
For the initial question, I would certainly risk it. 50/50 chance of getting 32,000 or 125,000 = expectancy of 78.5 > 64.
If the amount risked is 5% or less of my net worth, I would always take those 50/50 odds with that 33/67 payoff. However, you would never get me sitting on national TV on a game show.
I was in the no camp. Two reasons : 1) I only risk 1% of my trading capital on any one trade - I would need to have $3.2m to take this trade..... 2) 50% W/L is not good enough for my risk tolerance. I am in the 70-80% camp. Cheers J
