Suppose that you are participating in a game show so far you have won $10,000 free of tax and can leave with your winnings. However, if you continue to play you have a 50-50 chance of doubling your winning or ending up with $7 500. What would you do?

I would take the money I have since there's only a likely % of me actually winning the doubled option.
