I'm not sure,

but I certainly would not bet anything on tails at less then even money.

I understand we're headed back down the road to risk of ruin again and I'll assume there exists an optimal amount,

if forced to give an answer, you knowing how I play BJ, know if I have the edge, I'm taking as big a shot as possible, if I get beat I can always come back another day. At least I knew without doubt the shot I took was positive expectation, who knows the next time someone will offer me +110 on a coin toss, I suspect just about anyone will give me -105 anytime I want.
