[ExI] Psi experiment

Long exchanges have taken place on games, and I wonder if some very
easy experiment has ever (or should) be organised such as the
following:

Take a black-white, odd-even game with results randomised as well as possible.

Take a first group betting money while trying to guess the outcome,
and a second group betting money but without the ability to pick their
bet.

Is the first performing better than the second in average on large
numbers of bets?

Motivation should be kept up by monetary rewards, something which does
not happen in ordinary large-scale psi experiments, and possible
statistical deviations should become sooner or later measurable if a
difference exists.
