释义

Russian Roulette

Russian roulette is a Game of chance in which one or more of the six chambers of a gun are filled with bullets, themagazine is rotated at random, and the gun is fired. The shooter bets on whether the chamber which rotates into place will beloaded. If it is, he loses not only his bet but his life.


A modified version is considered by Blom et al. (1996) and Blom (1989). In this variant, the revolver is loaded with a singlebullet, and two duelists alternately spin the chamber and fire at themselves until one is killed. The probability that thefirst duelist is killed is then 6/11.
