Madison vs. Her Unfortunate Odds

到目前为止,被关在笼子里的时间最长纪录是八小时。我知道我无法说服麦迪逊花那么长时间被关起来。我给了她 1,000 美元,并提议玩一个游戏。她至少要在笼子里呆 3 个小时。一旦被关进去,我会抛一枚硬币。如果硬币正面朝上,她的时间就会翻倍。硬币会一直抛,直到掷出反面。如果运气好的话,硬币会掷出几次正面,她很快就会打破纪录。如果运气好的话,她可能会打破纪录。即使我输了,我们仍然可以看到麦迪逊在笼子里挣扎几个小时。Until now, the record for someone spending time in the cage has been eight hours. I knew I wouldn’t be able to convince Madison to spend that much time locked up. With an offer of $1,000, I proposed a game. She would spend a minimum of 3 hours in the cage. Once locked inside, I would flip a coin. Heads and her time would double. The coin would keep flipping until it hit tails. With any luck it would hit heads a few times and she’d soon be breaking the record. With a lot of luck, she might shatter the record. Even if I lose, we still get to watch Madison struggle for hours in the cage.
