Here is a mathematical puzzle I'm stuck with:
A card dealer has 8 cards, four of which are red and the other four are black. The cards are shuffled and put on the deck with the back side on. You have got £10 to enter a gambling game as follows:
- At each round, you can bet £x, where $0 \leq x \leq$ your total available money, on the colour of the card on top of the deck. The dealer would then turn the card, and if you are right, you receive £x if you are wrong, you have to pay the dealer £x.
- You continue the game until all the cards are turned over.
