Can The Rewards Justify the Risk In Poker?

In playing poker you should always weigh the balance between risk and reward. Sometimes the rewards are so tempting but the means to get it are so risky. You need to balance it out. Check out some simple examples of this thought below:
Example 1 - One day a rich man approach you and gives a gun with six chambers. Then he told you that he’s going to give you $1,000,000 if you play a round of Russian Roulette.
In this situation you have 5 out 6 chances of defeating the game and winning the offered million. The catch would be there is 1 out of 6 chances that you are going to be dead. Good rewards but a great risk. I myself don’t want to end up dead just to get a million dollars.
