Introduction:

Objectives:

To understand and evaluate a luck-based game where players bet on the shape in which a dropped
ball will land. The objective is to analyze the game mechanics, assess potential outcomes, and
explore strategies to maximize returns. By studying the probabilities and possible payouts,
participants aim to make informed decisions and improve their chances of success in the game. To
explore how decision-making processes vary among individuals in games of chance, and to identify
patterns that contribute to both successful and unsuccessful outcomes.

Mechanics of the game:

The banker will drop the ball then the ball must fall in the corresponding shape that you bet in, there
are five shapes which are heart, circle, star, triangle and square. So when the ball falls on the star
which is in the middle, the banker will get your bet.
So when the ball falls in the shape you bet on, your money will be doubled. So in other words this
game only depends on your luck.

[x ∙P(x)] = [ x 2 ∙P(x)] =

μ = 2.25 μ=
5.75
σ = [ x ∙P(x)] - μ
2 2 2

= 5.75 - (2.25)
= 5.75 - 5.06
= 0.69
σ = 0.69
