Researchers Create a Statistical Guide To Gambling
New submitter yukiloo writes "An early Christmas treat for the ordinary Joe who is stuck with a Christmas list that he cannot afford and is running out of time comes from two mathematicians (Evangelos Georgiadis, MIT, and Doron Zeilberger, Rutgers) and a computer scientist (Shalosh B. Ekhad). In their paper 'How to gamble if you're in a hurry,' they present algorithmic strategies and reclaim the world of gambling, which they say has up till recently flourished on the continuous Kolmogorov paradigm by some sugary discrete code that could make us hopefully richer, if not wiser. It's interesting since their work applies an advanced version of what seems to be the Kelly criterion."

If you derive pleasure from losing money, send me $20 and I'll respond with an email telling you whether or not you won $40. ;)
Are you referring to the upcoming Facebook IPO, or is this a new scam of your own creation :)
Actually, I would argue that "giving blowjobs to whoever passes by", done in the right location, would arguably have a much higher chance of earning significant money. :P
