That feels just like being mugged. I KNOW that eventually I will give Omega $5, but I prefer it not to happen by some unforeseeable process that may cause irreparable damage to me, like epileptic seizure or lightning strike. So I just hand over the cash. By the way, this reasoning applies regardless of Omega's accuracy level.
Good point. That's a terrifying thought - and may be enough to get me to hand over the cash right away.
I might put the cash in one of twenty black boxes, and hand one of them over to Omega at random.
