Parlay logic

Question

Ok, where is the math wrong here. an 8 team $100 parlay if you win the first with no action. can you not break even or win 8900 using the chart below

game 1 no reverse action
game 2 bet 50 if lose you lost 50
game 3 bet 100 if lose total down 165
game 4 bet 200 if lose total down 385
game 5 bet 400 if lose total down 725
game 6 bet 750 if lose total down 1550
game 7 bet 1600 if lose total down 3310
game 8 bet 3200 if lose you win 8900 minus 6830

you either win 2000 or win 90.

is this wrong. ???

i&#x27;ve been trying to figure this for years and have attempted sometimes but not using 8 teams..i would attempt your theory using 1 dollar as your starting point if you are to actually try this to minimize your loses if it isn&#x27;t full proof. if teh theory works it works.. i know someone who might be able to figure this out.. let me see if they can do this. problem is you have to find 8 games that start and end before the next game starts, and how do pushes affect it?

this week would be the week , with games for a straight week and 2 pro games on Saturday and Sunday.  Let me know, on paper it works, but on paper the Cincinnati Bengals were good but on the field not so good. LOL.
