Oh dear.
Emperor Palpatine has sentenced you to death for crimes against the Empire. In fickle stroke of luck, he has given you a chance to live, if you can succeed at a game of chance. The Emperor gives you two bowls and one hundred marbles.
"The white marbels represent the light side of the force. Stringent. Limiting. Pick a white marble, and your fate is sealed."
He then gestures to the black marbles.
"The black marbels represent the dark side. Liberating. Fluid. Pick a black marble, and you may taste freedom once more."
The emperor invites you to divide the marble between the two bowls as you see fit. You will then be blindfolded, and the bowls will be rearranged so you don't know which is which.
How can you divide the marbles so that you have the highest odds of survival
Hint:
[spoiler]You don't have to put an even number of marbles in each bowl.[/spoiler]

And, we dream of home I dream of life out of here Their dreams are small My dreams don't know fear I got my heart full of hope I will change everything No matter what I'm told How impossible it seems We did it before And we'll do it again We're indestructible Even when we're tired And we've been here before Just you and I
Don't try to rescue me I don't need to be rescued
Don't try to rescue me I don't need to be rescued
