Bayman's million $ challenge - Geelong are nearly there!!

Remember back a few months Bayman said you can turn $1-00 into $1 million if you all up 20 even money winners in a row, well Geelong not only have won their last 14 games but they have covered the spread in all 14 games!

so if you kept rolling the winnings over at $1.91 you would be well on your way to the Million...maybe smarty like Ecky could work out what your $1-00 would be worth today if you did it!

this is the run down

1 = 2
2 = 4
4 = 8
8 = 16
16 = 32
32 = 64
64 = 128
128 = 256
256 = 512
512 = 1024
1024 = 2048
2048 = 4096
4096 = 8192
8192 = 16,384 (14th bet)
16,384 = 32,768
32,768 = 65536
65536 = 131072
131072 = 262144
524288 = 1048576
1048576 = 2097152 ( 20th bet ) now i'm confused

so if u started this 14 weeks ago and rode it till the gf (providing geelong get there and win) you would have a cool 2 million for the outlay of $1 the thing dreams are made of ...would take some fair balls though to ride it all the way tho imagine once u got to a 1000 let alone a million and still doubling up :D :D :D as i said u would need some massive balls to ride this through to the end 8) 8)

Think u stuffed up the last two Bayman. Should be
19th Bet 262,144 = 524,288
20th Bet 524,288 = 1,048,576

Think you need a new calculator MT.
20 all ups @ Evens to Get a Mill OR 22 all ups @ $1.91 to a Mill.

Anyone Done it Latley?

Closest i would have come would have been playing Blackjack once at the Casino and won 14 Hands in a Row although didn't Double up each time. Won about $600 out of that Streak.
Havent Played Blackjack for years now as i find it as Boring as Pokies and CANT win in the long run or Rarely in the short run for that matter.

I might give it a crack, but start @ $10- only need 18 bets for the million bucks!
(reality is, I'd probably stop between 50k & 100k... :oops: )
