You are offered an opportunity to win a fortune. There are 100 precious black stones and 100 unworthy white stones. There are two different sacks labelled as "Heads" and "Tails". You can distribute the stones as you wish. Then a coin will be flipped. Then you will have to choose a stone from the corresponding sack.
