Return $565

You sure know how to pick the right time for that type of question.

Stressing that I am not necessarily recommending this particularly for those with weak tickers, I'll run the Kelly Criterion by your claims.

Edge = 2.7%
Odds = 4.67

Edge/Odds = 0.58%

Suggesting you stake ~1/2% of your Bank.

Staking 1 half of 1% probably won't get you into too much hot water.
