Never mind -- I had read this LW article but not the original Landsburg post it links to, and I was under the impression that it was about the St Petersburg paradox.

(Note to self: Never comment on [LINK]-type LW posts until I've at least skimmed the original article they're based on, no matter how well I think I understand the summary on LW.)
