Ok <span>so let's say that you have a 3/13 chance of winning $3 and a 2/13 chance of winning $10 and a 8/13 chance of winnning $0. </span>

<span>Therefore if the dice is rolled 13 times, I am expected to win 3X$3 + 2X$10 = $29 </span>

<span>But I am paying $5 per roll so 13 rolls would cost me 13X$5 = $65 </span>

<span>So therefore my expected net winnings is $29-$65 = -$36 </span>

<span>I would lose $36 according to chance.
I hope this help's. Good luck!
