    Good brain teaser for sure.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Two friends were betting. One said to the other, “The coin will be flipped twenty times and each time the coin lands on head, I will give you $2 and each time it lands on tale, you will give me $3.” After flipping the coin for twenty times not a single penny was exchanged among them.

    How many times did the coin land on heads ?
