Fleet's "Not To Lose" Idea

[FleetFanatic]

Find 4 teams from my ratings, the 4 highest that are priced evens or higher. But they can be anywhere in the world. Then do the following bets; Stake of 'x' amount is shared proportionately between all the combinations to give a guaranteed return of 'y' amount if none lose. Top 2 highest ratings: WW WD DW DD Top 3 highest ratings: WWW WWD WDW DWW WDD DWD DDW DDD All 4 ratings: WWWW WWWD WWDW WDWW DWWW WWDD WDWD DWWD WDDW DWDW DDWW WDDD DWDD DDWD DDDW DDDD By using the ratings above evens, we would be looking at a rough return (odds rounded down); 1.6 on 2 teams 2.1 on 3 teams 3.0 on 4 teams Now, by aiming to hit a winning run of say 10 attempts & starting with a £10 split bet on each section: BET RET2 RET3 RET4 01 16.02 21.85 30.34 02 26.04 47.86 91.76 03 42.06 104.74 277.70 04 67.89 229.21 840.34 05 109.60 501.64 2542.95 06 176.96 1097.81 7695.10 07 285.73 2402.48 23286.19 08 461.38 5257.74 70450.38 09 744.96 11506.33 213189.59 10 1202.87 25181.19 645131.83 These figures are based on the unrounded overall odds and do not account for the returned stakes being reinvested in each bet, so in theory these figures should be higher. Now obviously we're not going to hit a run of 10 easily, so I thought about having a set of rules allowing staggered withdrawals; at £100+ withdraw 10% and after each subsequent winning bet at £400+ withdraw 15% and after each subsequent winning bet at £1600+ withdraw 20% and after each subsequent winning bet at £6400+ withdraw 25% and after each subsequent winning bet these % allow the following bet to still be higher stakes So now you all know what I meant when I said I was working on something. I am basically sick of draws ruining my trebles, and as much as we do have success, we aint gonna get rich! So....am I mad with this idea? Incidently, I went with Barnsley, Rochdale, Bury & IFK Mariehamn for this today. All 4 drew - mission accomplished. :ok
