Wat is Kelly criterion?

Definition 29.3 Markets II: Rates, FX and Credit · Hoofdstuk 29 — Thinking in Expected Value

Growth rate of wealth per flip of the 60% coin at even money, against the fraction of wealth staked. It peaks at the Kelly fraction, 0.2, with 2.01% a flip, and falls to zero at 0.389, about twice Kelly. Data: the chapter’s tutorial.
