The luck of the draw

    After several failed logs I said to myself ill give it one last go.

    The idea is simple, to keep backin the same team to draw each week.

    So one bet a week but after a losin bet I double the stake for the next one.

    Starting from 0.25 0.50, €1, €2, €4, €8, €16, €32, €64, €128, €256, €512, €1024 and so on.

    The theory is that eventually the team in question will draw and when this happens I start again from 0.25.

    So it's all or nothin really :P

    Virtual money at first to see if it can work without me losing my home lol

    Best of luck, you're guaranteed profit with virtual money, it'll be worth seeing whether you can find the draws or not. I wonder would it be worth following a few teams at the same time to get more bets on?
