And a guy sitting next to you offered you a game that returns 101.15% with a little over a third the variance with no comps/cashback but you have to play it at the $10 level.

I'd look at it as playing a hand that's risking $35.

over their bankroll, but then their approach to strategy assumes their
bankroll is infinite.
