You will have 3 dices.
Throw the first dice, and you can decide to get paid with the point( 1, 2, 3
, 4, 5 or 6, whichever it comes out to be) and walk away.
Or if you are not happy with the first one, throw the second dice, and
the new result is your payout, or still not happy, throw the 3rd dice and you get paid upon the result of the 3rd throw.
Now, what is the optimal strategy for you obtain maximum potential payout?
