    Use this generator please.

    Flip a coin ... if it is heads when it comes up ... report back here.

    If it is tails, you are -1 ... flip again

    If it is tails again, you are -2 ... flip again

    Keep it up and keep track of your number of flips

    If it gets back to even (0) ... write down that number because you are
    starting back at the top. Keep trying.

    Only one win (+1) is necessary. [You can try for +2 if you want.]

    Just try ... it will not kill you

    This is a person who can´t compute the monetary difference between
    a 50-50 game and a 55% edge.

    No, I cannot compute "the monetary difference between a 50/50 game and a
    55% edge". Can you? If so, good for you.

    Since it has nothing to do with my simple request ... more power to you.

    Thanks ... I think it happens almost half the time.

    Good to see you back.
