Keel's NBA Parlay System

**keel44** · 10-28-14, 10:19 AM

My profit target amount will be 10 units. Divide 10 by 30.63 = 0.33 unit will be my starting risk amount.

1 unit equals 2% of total bank. That means I have a 50 unit bankroll to get this done. Any bets must pay a minimum of 2.5 to 1.

Parlay 01-A: Mavs +4 with Pelicans -10.5 (0.33 to win 0.84)

**the1outlaw** · 10-28-14, 12:39 PM

I'm on board...Let's get it! I got Mavs +3.5 and Pelicans -9.5...I think Mavs win outright and considered them on the ML with this one but we'll take the points.

I have a C play stored up now from my own side chase. Considering over in tonight's baseball with the over in the Mavs game...still not sure. I really want to be careful with whatever I take. I'm 90% sure the baseball over will be part of it though.

**thezzzone** · 10-28-14, 04:23 PM

Just wondering why the increase to 2.5X from 2X on NFL? Good Luck Guys!!!

**the1outlaw** · 10-28-14, 04:35 PM

It may have something to do with buying the points in the NFL which is something Keel likes to do. My book doesn't give me that option on parlays so mine is usually 2.5 to 1 on the NFL lines although that may burn me eventually.

**keel44** · 10-29-14, 12:53 AM

In the MLB I go for a 48 to 1 scenario
NBA is a 30.63 to 1
NFL is a 18 to 1

The reason for this has to do with how many games each sport has. I need to wrap things up much more quickly in the NFL as opposed to daily baseball action with every team playing. That is why the increase from 2 to 1 parlays in football to 2.5 to 1 parlays for basketball. I need to be more aggressive in the chasing for the NFL, but a more likelihood of winning an easier parlay. I am looking for balance. You can customize any ol' way you like.

**the1outlaw** · 10-29-14, 01:20 PM

Locked and loaded tonight...Let's get 2 more B plays!

I missed my C play from my side chase that is basically spanning 4 sports right now. I needed 2 points in the final 50 seconds of the Mavs game and it would have hit. Argh!

**lordlord2323** · 10-29-14, 01:34 PM

I'm with you ! :P

**thezzzone** · 10-29-14, 02:55 PM

Love it..a bit of art a bit of science

Parlay 03-A: Knicks +4.5 with Warriors -4 (0.33 to win 0.86)

0.33 gets added to the target of 10 units
10.33 divide by 30.63 = 0.34
0.34 is the new risk amount going forward

**the1outlaw** · 10-30-14, 10:44 PM

Won a C play tonight in my side chase that puts me at +17 units for the chase. I'm closing it out there. I pressed with the 2 B's I had stored tonight or it could have been better. Lost both of those...

I'm trying to find the flaw in this system and haven't yet...get hot and win big. Lose many times over and only lose a little. I now see the value in storing the B's and C's for your better spots.

**keel44** · 10-31-14, 12:47 AM

Don't store them too long, outlaw. If you continue to chase, and lose some "A" bets, it will drag down your target amount. I lost site of that earlier in the NFL. My target was 10, and after my C win, I only had a little over 7 units profit.

All of my bets I am really sure about......no forcing of plays.

Good job on your hot stretch....that is what its all about.

No increase in the chase amount because this bet was made with previous winnings. I need to make better picks.

O.K. I have lost 2 "A" bets. 0.67 unit gets added to our profit target of 10. 10.67 divide by 30.63 = 0.35
That is our unit risk amount going forward.

Carmelo misses a free throw at the end. These things happen, but its tough when you watch it happen in real time.

0.36 risk amount going forward

Keel, I have been following since the beginning of football season. I decided to open an account to tell you that I think your money management concept seems really sound to me. I can see that it takes a great deal of patience but have no doubt as to the returns in the long run. Continued good luck.

Thanks for the comments. The way I see it, in the extreme case you could cash 10 units in a month, but if things go well, you might get 30. I just hope to avoid a horribly long drought.

**FlyinAir** · 11-05-14, 01:56 AM

Checkin in, good luck rest of the way 44!

+1.

Man, what a bunch of crap. -2.93 units overall now...long way to go, but this is frustrating

0.42 risk amount going forward.
