Calculate the optimal strategy for heads and tails game
You are playing a game where you flip a coin 5 times. You win if three heads come up in the 5 coin tosses. You lose if three tails come up in the 5 coin tosses. If you win you get £1. If you lose you lose £1. Before each flip you can choose to either double the stakes from their previous value (if you win you get £2n and if you lose you lose £2n where n is the amount you get if you win beforehand) or keep them the same. Are you willing to pay £0.50 to play this game?
