hey gang,
my friend actually went 0-14 in a pool this week. We all know that it is just as hard to go 0-14 as it is to go 14-0. So we were kicking it around last night as a dicussion... what would the parlay be if you go 14-0 on any given weekend based on a $1 bet.
Basically what I"m looking for is a parlay payoff chart.

Any help would be appreciated.


thanks all,
Sam

If we assume there is a 50% chance of winning/losing each wager (which is not the case because you can also push), the chances are

ONE in (2*2*2 .... 14 times)

= 1 in 16384

So the odds are 16383 to 1

Depending on exactly what he bet, true odds are between 8,600-1 and 16,000-1.
