A morals/ethics question

[m1illion]

Suppose you have been held prisoner for some time and have not eaten for 10 days and had no water for 5 days. You are put into a room that is divided by a six inch thick plexiglass security wall.
In your half of the room are two tables. On the one table is sandwich and on the other table is a large glass of water.
In the other half of the room, bound to a pole is your mentor and teacher. For arguments sake, let's say he has educated you on how to give yourself the best opportunity to win money at games of chance, perhaps a card game of some sort. And because of these teachings you are now financially independant and pretty much play cards for a living.
If you eat the sandwich your mentor will be decapitated.
If you drink the water your teacher will be exposed to the ebola virus.
Do you drink the water or eat the sandwich?
What if you weren't financially independant? Say you're a break even player, would that affect your decision?
What if your down about 100k?

You know you should be dead by now right?

Considering a human's stomach can go without food for 40 days and after that it'll close up and you'll die, wheras I believe it's only 3-4 days without water and you die, you have to drink the water.

What difference does any of this make?

Confused,
