Welcome to the Elm Wealth Coin Flip Challenge!

Try your luck and assess your skill at bet-sizing on the toss of a biased coin.

In this game, you get to flip a coin that we programmed to have a 60% chance of coming up heads. You can bet any amount of money in your balance (but not more) on heads or tails on each flip. If your balance goes to $0, it’s game over.

Make the game more exciting and instructive by imagining your balance is your total personal financial capital!

Thank you for playing, and good luck!
