Rob: Ten pounds!
Li: Oh just ten pounds. Ah well, thats quite useful actually.
Rob: Is it?
Li: Well, you owe me five pounds and you did say you would buy me a glass of champagne if you won a race.
Rob: Oh right, so that will leave me. fifty pence. Maybe Im not a winner after all. Honestly! Every time I make some money I have to give it away .
Li: Sorry Rob, its a no-win situation. 你怎么都不会赢,这样也是输,那样也是输,输定了. Its a no-win situation Rob. You cant gain any money because youll always lose it on something else .
Rob: So even though I did win something, I have also lost . Thats a no-win situation is it?

Rob: I am. It seems impossible to win some money just for myself.
Li: Actually I also won some money fifty pounds so Ill buy you a drink, in fact Ill buy you something to eat tooand you dont need to pay me back that five pounds.
Rob: Oh really? Oh Li thats really kind of you. Now Im in a win-win situation!

Rob: OK great. Lets go. Bye.
Li: Bye bye.
