The existence of a bet that could guarantee a place in heaven if it exists, would be strong evidence that heaven exists.

I would think just the opposite. All I have to do is refuse the 1 million. I can then go rape every little girl I see and steal millions from charities and murder anybody I want and I'm still guaranteed a place in heaven? The existence of such a bet would lead me to believe that heaven does NOT exist (even more than I already believe it).

I don't believe in god, heaven or hell and am happy to take the money from anyone who is not god, but no non-god is in a position to offer the bet.
So the existence of the bet implies the existence of god. That makes the existence of heaven and hell far more likely.
I agree with your point but who knows how this god works.
