Didn't believe in the muslim god and they turned out to be correct? Whoops, hell!

Are you a protestant and the catholic god is correct? Whoops, hell!

What if you die and find that god really hates Pascal's Wager? Whoops, hell!

You are risking just as much as we are. How hard is this to understand?

And "oi vey" what if the Jews were right all along?

And it it was the Greeks....better take a coin for the ferryman.

I did answer this at least twice already.

If there are multiple believe or damned choices, then the atheist and agnostic is damned if any are true.
So there is no difference in Pascal's wager for atheists and agnostics.

For the believer of God, a choice must be made. There is only one clear choice. So the believer again has no difference in Pascal's wager.

That's because Pascal's Wager presupposes that Christianity is the one true religion and it never occurs to Christians proposing PW that any other religion could be the one true religion (because obviously all those others are just heathen religions invented by Satan).

Pascal's wager says to consider that there is God.

There are many different versions of God and salvation to consider.

Only the Holy Bible will prove to be true.
