Having left your wallet, change and a full pint of Ben&Jerry's Cherry Garcia at home, the quarter is all you have. The vender then offers you a deal of a lifetime (or at least the immediate moment) and will give you double or nothing on one flip of that quarter. Will you take the bet? Will you walk away with the 50 cents if you win?
