No, it is not an interesting "strategy". Its claim to be a strategy has long since been fully understood (and can quickly be so by any person with numeracy skills), and rejected. It fails as a strategy because it has no effect on EV.

What it is, is a highly effective way of separating self-deluded idiots from their money. Has been so for 300 years, and I'm sure will continue to be so for a long time to come, just so long as the supply of idiots never runs out (recent evidence of which, does not demonstrate any shortage of same).
