Beast Games has been a fun watch. Every contestant on the show could use some serious help with game theory. Pretty much any time you are offered money to eliminate yourself, I think you should take it.
Prize is 1 person wins $5M and it started with 1,000 contestants. So your EV = $5,000. Even at 100 people left your EV is only $50,000. Most bribes to eliminate are much larger.
The one person was offered a $100K bribe to eliminate herself. She said no because there is a shot to win a Tesla later on. Uhhh, $100K even after taxes will guarantee you can get a Tesla. Take the money.
