  1. Let me present you with a game. It's a gambling game. The rules are pretty straightforward: 1. You begin the game with 10 US dollars 2. Every round, you may wager any of your current US dollars 3. After you have wagered, we toss a fair coin, which leads to one of two outcomes: a. Heads - You lose your wager b. Tails - You get your wager back AND win 200% of your wager's value 4. You have 100 rounds in which to maximise your profits as much as possible 5. It should go without saying, but if you ever end a round with 0 US dollars, you've lost The game is obviously in your favour, but provide a betting strategy which uses these rules to win as many US dollars as possible.
  2. You got it. The thing kinda popped into my head while pondering PG's puzzle.
  3. Eying Brexit supporters with a butcher's knife. (8)
  4. Damn. I love that these are obvious in hindsight.
  5. Good to see you around again, PG!
  6. Not particularly. I got hung up on Ace for quite awhile (the card + a pilot). "spit them out upon the wave" and the MASH reference really stumped me, as well. It definitely passes the decalogue, and I think the answer is obvious in hindsight.
  7. Capsule (the dichotomy being the space capsule and a medicinal capsule).

    Duh

    12 billion dollars, I'd wager.
  9. Liner (as in eye liner or cruise liner or the lining of a garment).
