Suppose that you and a friend are playing cards and you decide to make a friendly wager. The bet is that you will draw two cards without replacement from a standard deck. If both cards are diamonds, your friend will pay you $296. Otherwise, you have to pay your friend $17.

What is the expected value of your bet?
