10 consecutive compounded even money bets where you think the true chance of each selection is 55%

or a single 1000-1 shot you think should be 300s.

10 bets obv. It's compounders you're asking.

The chance of winning 10 consecutive bets each with a 55% chance is 1 in 394.78. The collect is 1024 which is 2.59 times 394.78.

The chance of winning the second bet is 1 in 300. The collect is 1000 which is 3.33 times 300.

I vote for the second bet and wish you a prosperous New Year.

Am I allowed to change stake on the first 10 bets depending on whether the previous ones win or lose?

If so, def the first. Should be able to achieve over 5% growth there as opposed to only just over 1.5% growth on the 2nd choice.
