Back to the matter at hand. I hope someone from 2+2 will explain this new theory of winning $15 being preferable to winning $40, so much so that those choosing the "win $40" option over the "win $15" are actually being mocked!

Fine, I will explain it. If you have $15, you can go to lunch or something with a friend and spend your $15 and I will likely have a small bit of change leftover if I went somewhere cheap or ate by myself. This leads to lets say $1.50 on average left over.

If I have $40, I will go play craps with it. $10 pass, $30 odds, but what if its a 5689? I don't have max odds at a 3x4x5x odds table. I will have to pull an extra $10 or $20 out of my pocket. "7 out, line away." I'm in the red now.

Larry,

Thanks for elaborating. That definitely make a lot of sense. This is the kind of solid poker and gambling thinking that keeps 2+2 on top.
