As long as there's a chance of an infinite upside then there's an infinite upside.

If there is a chance of an infinite downside (hell), this is not true.

The upside is what you can get when you win. If there's a non-infintesimal chance of winning an infinite amount then there a chance of winning an infinite amount. Hence the upside is infinite.

Maybe we mean something different by upside.

My first post was that the problem with the wager is there is also an infinite downside. i think this is the easiest refutation as argueing that there is an infintesimal chance of an infinite upside, that makes the upside finite, is tough.
