摘要: The Vardi casino with parameter 0 < c < 1 consists of infinitely many tables indexed by their odds, each of which returns the same (negative) expected winnings -c per dollar. A gambler seeks to maximize the probability of reaching a fixed fortune by gambling repeatedly with suitably chosen stakes and tables (odds). The optimal strategy is derived explicitly subject to the constraint that the gambler is allowed to play only a given finite number of times. Some properties of the optimal strategy are also discussed.
