RE: 20 Steps to One Million - Beginning Again - v4.1
Good luck Marcus.
It is a real hard challenge to complete. What also will make it hard, is when you do need to place your last bet. Because then you are going to risk 500.000 pond! After the first 10 bets you will have around 1000 pond, and from them on I guess that it will be harder to place the bet!
From bet 15 on, you will be risking a small car :)
Imagine walking into the casino with 10K ponds and place it all on red or green!
Will follow the challenge with lots of interests!
Cheers,
Peter
It's a hard thing to do really.
Imagine doubling the money to 100k and then losing that bet!? It would be a story you'd be repeating to the end of your life... once upon a time I've lost 100k bet...
@marcusbraeburn hats off if you're able to pull it off. I know I'm not. I'd chicken out at around 30k 😂
One thing that can be a problem is that not many bookies will take a 100k+ bet.
I'll be following your progress. Good luck!
Chicken out around 30k? I think if I had 500 and lost my wife would kill me 😂 "Sweetie why are you stressing more about this game than others?" "Oh no reason, just risked 30k, but don't worry I won that so I really can't lose" and then she strangles me 😂 😂
actually laughing out loud 😂
Haha good, I'm glad I could brighten your day!
:) Really made my laugh! Could not even imagine the scenario at home when this would happen! Hey honey, I know you wanted a new bathroom and we did had the money virtually, but I did have a hinge that team X would crush team Y and that's why you won't get a new bathroom soon!
😂 😂 😂 "The bathroom can wait dear, I made a blog about it and can't go back on my word"
There's a trick to it... you either keep her in the dark or you bombard her with the sports talk so much that she escapes each time she suspects you're about to talk about sports and betting 😂
Is it moral? No, but it has saved some lives in the past 😂
Could be a tactic!
But how will you bring it to her, when you do hit the jackpot?
I do have tried this quest above before. But them with lower odds! Never made it further than bet 16, the average odds where around 1.4.
With odds around 1.4, you will need to win 41 to 42 bets in a row!
A sweet problem to have, but still a problem. A tricky one, too.
The number alone will save you, but you'll instantly get another problem. She'll get interested in betting herself:
Haha, really enjoying this thread! Fortunately, as a single man I only need to justify losses to myself, and I am pretty good at this by now! My insurance policy is that I actually start with a higher bet, five or ten pounds, that way I can (hypothetically, at least) pull profits out all the way along.
It's tough though, I am yet to get past bet number four! That's why I always ask for suggestions, I don't actually appear to be very good at finding even money selections. Going for shorter odds is an interesting idea though... maybe I will try this after few more failed attempts!
Thanks to everyone for watching.
There are not that many games to chose from at the moment. The World Cup will bring some interesting games, but I don't like to bet on the cups (any cup really).
Take a look at what @numpypython is doing, at the moment, I think, he's the only one that's placing bets on football.
World Cup equals very few goals... most games are tight affairs barring the obvious mismatches... I'll be going down that route I think. Yep, I had a look at @numpypython the other day but will check him out again now!
😂 😂
Is it moral?.... We're all degenerate gamblers.... Like we've never had a few skewed morals 😂 😂
Haha, yep it would definitely be scary if I ever got to near the end... at the moment I am just trying to string three winners together in a row! Thanks for watching :-)
Oh for sure. We're all cheering for ya! And I won't judge you at all if you cash out before the end, haha
Just imagine how exciting the videos will be if I get up to a decent amount of cash... I could live stream myself watching the football and chewing my finger nails off!
Dude that would be awesome. I'd have you on one screen and the game on the other. Maybe even throw a bet on it too so we can celebrate together, haha
19 steps to go...
Yes! First step is the hardest. Right....? 😂
So far the third step seems to be the hardest! Maybe now, with the backing of the SBC, I will soar!!
Oh yea, it'll be easy this go around 😂
