Default My most convincing argument yet

In Finance they calculate future value as such:

FV = PV x (1+K)^N

Where PV is the present value, K is the interest rate, and N is the number of periods.

Therefore it follows to me that if we double PV, and increase K slightly (due to big stack advantages) - we should get a FV that is more than 2 times our starting FV. (Of course this has limit due to the fixed amount of money in the prize pool.) Somebody please tell me why this shouldn't apply in the first hand of a large MTT...
