There's two asymmetries going on. The first is the one you played with, which is zero hard boundary. But there's also the asymmetry of losing zero to one dollars every round, while gaining zero to n-1 dollars every round. I bet you can minimize the skew by applying a progressive rate to how much is given away, such that you can also lose zero to n-1 dollars every round.
