If this condition makes a difference to you, your answer must also be to take as many cards as Omega has to offer.
I don't follow.
(My assertion implies that Omega cannot double my utility indefinitely, so it's inconsistent with the problem as given.)
You'll just have to construct a less convenient possible world where Omega has merely trillion cards and not an infinite amount of them, and answer the question about taking a trillion cards, which, if you accept the lottery all the way, leaves you with 2 to the trillionth power odds of dying. Find my reformulation of the topic problem here.
Agreed.
Gotcha. Nice reformulation.
