Let’s play a game of Russian roulette. You are tied to your chair and can’t get up. Here’s agun. Here’s the barrel of the gun, six chambers, all empty. Now watch me as I put a singlebullet in the gun. I close the barrel and spin it. I put a gun to your head and pull the trigger.Click. Lucky you! Now I’m going to pull the trigger one more time. Which would you prefer,that I spin the barrel first, or that I just pull the trigger

• IInd case : Probability of bullet in next slot is 1/5
  Ist Case: Probability of bullet in next slot is 1/6

• Probability of not getting shot if the barrel is spun is 4/6 that is 2/3
  Probability of not getting shot if the barrel is not spun is 3/4
  3/4 is greater hence i prefer not spinning the barrel
