# Russian Roulette

**Russian Roulette** is a high-tension, Player vs Player game designed **for 3 to 6 participants per round**. Each player must commit a buy-in amount to join a table, with the entry cost varying depending on the game. All buy-ins contribute directly to the shared prize pot.

At the start of each game, one unlucky player is randomly eliminated by the spin of a virtual gun—they lose everything. The remaining survivors split the prize pot equally among themselves.

#### How It Works:

* One player is randomly eliminated each round.
* All other players share the prize.
* The more players, the higher the risk—but also the bigger the pot.

*Example:*

*With 5 players, each has an 80% chance to win (only 1 out of 5 is eliminated).*\
*Fewer winners mean a larger share of the pot per survivor.*\
*More players means a larger prize pool, but your winnings are split between more survivors.*

The exact odds of winning can be calculated as follows:

* N = Number of players
* Odds = (N - 1) / N

The amount of value one can win is calculated as follows:

* N = Number of players
* P = Prize pot
* F = Percentage of service fee taken by platform (4% or 0.04)
* Prize per player = (P / (N - 1)) \* (1 - F)
