I agree, 15k is something my parents will give us or money i could raise selling my 350z.

The real victory is winning the prize, and the attention of VC you get.

It seems like your odds of "winning" this contest are not great, and your odds of "converting" that win to an A round are also not great. I like the YC idea and have little more specifically to say about it than that, but if you're investing 10 full time months, the quality of your execution will dominate your chances, not Paul Graham's imprimatur.
