RB_CH04_Q011. Roll die until number repeats expected payoff

difficulty 1200·answer type: numeric·Not solved

Problem

You and I are to play a game. You roll a die until a number repeats. When such a number repeats for the first time, I pay you the same number of dollars as there are dots on the upturned face of the die, and the game ends. What is the expected payoff to this game?
