This is a question of terminology.
Suppose we are trying to bear in safely, and we are deciding whether
to offer a 17/1 shot in the hope of a safer bearoff on subsequent rolls,
or whether to risk absolutely nothing but have a slightly less smooth position.
Is this problem type also "Pay now, Pay later" or is it part of the definition
of a "Pay now Pay later" problem that the number of shots conceded
by the pay now candidate is very large (approx 30% or more)?
Thank You.
Paul
