Its just stats. The basic bet you suggested boils down to

3 % you lose $32,000

97% you win $1,000

Acutally its a couple of percent worse as its not a true 50:50 bet (the casino has a margin)

Doesn't sound like a bet I'd take.

Also - because of the casino's margin if you replay this bet enough you are guaranteed to lose.
