Under what circumstances can I exit the game without a known 75% chance of getting shot?

If you survive tossing "tails" (the "you are free to go" condition in the description). (Also, when the game ends after thousands of rounds.)

Ah, I see. I missed the 'free to go' part since it was in the tail part of a parenthetical expression that seemed unnecessary, so when I ran across 'quit', I thought it meant 'when the game ends'.
