With there almost a winner of the 100k, it got me thinking of a different way to make some money while playing the survivor contest.
I was thinking what if you made a $10 wager on your first pick, and continued to go all in with you survivor pick every day until the end. I did a rough estimate on how much you would win, if you were to almost double up every pick (almost because of the juice). Starting with $10, if you made it 25 picks straight, doubling up and going all in every day. You would end up with roughly 60 million. But then again, I doubt any online sports books, or even Vegas for that matter would take such larger wagers near the end.
So I then came up with a different format. I started with $10. and I will go all in with my pick every day, but on every 5 correct picks, I will withdraw half of my overall balance. This will help make sure I am not losing to much, and not maxing out on the aloud maximum bet.
The numbers on the far right, are what I will withdraw every correct picks, well if I make it to 5 ever, think I only have done 5 once, but I am new to the contest, and never really took it that serious.
But if some miracle happens and I make it all the way, I will have cashed in a few hundred thousand already. But being realistic, I would be happy getting to just 10 picks straight.
Here is my plan, tell me what you think. Or if you even do this yourself. This also could be done with just $1 starting bet, im just greedy and started with $10.
So far I have two right
01/25/15 | NCAAB | South Florida | +14.5 | Connecticut | | WON

01/26/15 | NCAAB | Cleveland St. | | Oakland | +2.5 | WON |

My first bet was $10 and then I got to $19.09. After tonight win I am sitting at $36.00, three more to go and I get to cash out. Not sure what my pick for tomorrow will be yet, but I will keep this forum updated if I get any response from anyone, and I will let you know how my streak and bets are doing.
Wish me luck, and let me know if you are doing the same or something similar.
