It's fifty fifty. Either you win money, or you don't.
Just got two Powerball tix for tonight, thanks! Since one ticket is 50%, two should basically guarantee I win!
Gonna go kick my boss in the balls and walk out, should be fine, right? Probably.
I see no flaws here.
Correct. Do it like Homer and use you boss's head as bongos.
That would imply the one organising the gambling isn't taking a cut.
Nah you're wrong
Sorry i'm the boring guy. It is (more than) 20 times more probable to lose 100% than to win 2000% in most gambling.
Actually it's 50%. Either you win or you don't: 50%.

You're going to get us kicked out of the casino talking like that!
That's just what the casinos want you to think. They don't want you taking their money!
And if you lost 100% of your money last time, then you're due to win 2000% this time.
simultaneously laughs and sobs in leveraged investments
Leveraged "investments".
There's this thing, called debt tho...
not if you gamble for long enough
statistically the longer you gamble, the higher the chance that you'll win and make your money back, it's math bro
Why stop at 2000%
Don't forget that you lose 3% to inflation every year, and even more when we are in hyper-inflation like we are now.
Gambling in Wall Street's Casino is, by design, the only way to have a chance not to lose money.
That's how you sell monkey pictures my man now let's all go do coke until we get divorced, Leo will be there
