If I remember correctly that's a 2.5% house edge, meaning that the casino gets a slight advantage with their odds so that you're basically playing to lose.

If it was 50/50, it would be possible for a lot of people to walk away with more money than they started with. With a house edge, it limits that for a lot of people.

Im puzzling over how they secure the 2.5% house edge, because it will be either hi or lo

Before i choose hi or lo for next roll i have 50% chance at that moment
After i choose say hi, how does my chance of winning increase or decrease

Simply,

0 to 4750 = LOW
4751 to 5249 = HOUSE EDGE
5250 to 10000 = HIGH

There are three choices, but you can only choose two of the three.
