Tie

Imagine a fight to the death, underwater. Jacques Cousteau in full scuba gear (and two machetes) vs a tiny yet nasty blie-ringed octopus.

This resolves to my judgement. Try to convince me what would happen in the comments. Relevant information might include things like speculation on how fast it's possible to swing a machete, how fast a blue-ringed octopus can swim, Jacques Cousteau's reaction time and other interesting tidbits. If both die, that counts as a tie.

bought Ṁ5 Tie YES

My money's on tie, by far the most probable outcome is octopus initially outmanoeuvres the machetes, delivers lethal venomous bite, gets slashed a moment later while still on him, they both die

Also superb banner image lol

OK you win, this sounds most plausible

bought Ṁ20 Jacques Cousteau NO

Should the other two resolve no as well?

bought Ṁ5 Blue-Ringed Octopus YES

machetes seem hard to quickly move around underwater

It's probably also hard for the octopus to move around though, right? And the machetes have long reach...
