    Played this longshot parlay, forgot about it

    does it hit? not as long of a shot as it once was

    Nice Payout if it hits. Just do not see how INDY without much of a running game can get it Done. GL.

    Bad parlay.
    Placing a bet on Ohio State only instead of this parlay would have been the better bet.

    well yeah I did that... Cant believe no one thinks Indy has a shot. I dont give them much of a shot, but I think they are better than 44 to 1

    Start hedging now by playing a two teamer moneyline on Denver and Oregon. Will pay almost even money.

    Colts are about 37:1 to win it right now (32:1 factoring in juice)

    had you just open parlayed colts every game of playoffs you would be getting like +5100 if they play patriots next round

    I got them at 44 to 1 and playing New England isnt a given... Colts are currently +2250 on 5Dimes

    This is a loser, like all sucker wagers made by the players in here. No one has ever hit one yet. That is the intelligence of the players in here.

    If I were you I would definitely hedge on Oregon tomorrow. For sure. That's a huge parlay with huge value on it now, and you can't let it go to waste. The Ducks aren't super high ML favorites, so it wouldn't be too hard to do. Throw down $500 on them to win. They probably will win and you can really make some money off this parlay.

    What if Buckeyes win tho? Then I gotta put $1500 on Patriots ML just to get that $500 back. Then what if Colts win? All of sudden I'm -$2000 with the Super Bowl left. Too early to hedge bro... especially for $500... I have possibly 3 hedge bets to make (all on likely -300 favorites)

    Buckeyes are my team and Im confident they are going to win... if they do, Ill probably put a couple hundred on Patriots in the ACF title game, and then bet the Super Bowl accordingly if need be

    You have $3k to work with. You should definitely hedge something. Way too much of a potential loss for absolutely nothing if you don't hedge.

    Put something on Oregon, you'll be crazy not to I think, and they're very likely to win and end this parlay tomorrow, but it's your bet. Good luck.

    its just not worth it, not sure whats so hard to understand about it... Im gonna risk $500 to win what? $250? And possibly have to bet $1500 just to break even? What if I lose that? I gotta bet $4500 on the Super Bowl just to break even, and oh yeah... I either break even overall or Im down $-1500... Its really very ignorant to hedge right now...

    My ticket is worth about $150 right now, and Ive only hit 3 games out of 6... and those are the easier 3 to hit... got too long to go, hedging isnt an option whatsoever

    Or you just lay $200 on Oregon tomorrow, they win, and you make $80. And it ends tomorrow. If OSU do somehow win, wouldn't be hard at all to do the math and hedge with Pats and Hawks for a profit of at least $500 both ways. But whatever. Good luck, that's a pretty sick parlay you got going.

    Ill do the math for you: I put $200 on Oregon, and they win : I win $80. I put $200 on Oregon and they lose: Im forced to put $600 on Patriots just to break even on the whole shabang. Then what if Colts beat Pats? Packer or Seattle will be -300 favorites vrs Colts in the Super Bowl,,, I gotta put $1800 on Pack/Hawks just to break even. Then if Colts win it all, I win $3050 - $2600 ($200 + $600 + $1800) in lost bets chasing for a $450 profit... or I break even otherwise... So my possible results are:

    a) +$80
    b) break even with $800 to $2600 tied up online
    c) win $450 with $2600 extra cash tied up online

    Honestly I probably wont even hedge on the AFC title game if the Buckeyes win, locking in a couple hundo isnt important to me whatsoever.

    I kind of agree with this... I think the Pats being -300 is spot on. I think they win 3/4 times in this game at least.

    Yeah this makes a ton of sense... I will probably do this... If Pats are ever +anything I think that would be worth a couple hundred

    Do you ever consider all the other long shot odds you put in that you lost instead of focusing on one bet and probabilities????

    I mean, Ive hit a 50 to 1 straight bet for 5k and a 60 to 1 parlay for 3k just in the last 6 months... also was Auburn away from winning the title last year of hitting an 8000 to 1 parlay and $43,000 on a $17.50 investment... also was UCLA over Texas college football away from hitting 6/8 +200 or greater underdogs and winning a 1000 to 1 parlay. the thing you dont understand is it only takes a couple hits a year to win money o these. Yeah, Im wrong 98 times out of 100, but when I hit, I hit big. I only play these for a few dollars... so hate all you want. Its what I like to do, and Ive done pretty well at it over the last year.

    Lets be honest.....99% of us aren't winning jackshit in the long run when it comes down to it betting straight -110 wagers.....Some will win a little, some will lose a little....hot streaks, cold streaks, stress, what's the point

    These longshot futures are a fun way to gamble with a chance to really make a huge score

    Whatever works

    exactly, nowhere do I claim to be a professional. I do it for fun and added excitement, but I also take it serious and try to win

    Yeah man, I mean you can do no wrong here. You sniped the probably the 2 biggest longshots at the beginning that are still in it. If you lose, you lose $7, big deal. I just hate to see such a good snipe go down tomorrow, as I think Oregon does get the win and this huge parlay is killed on a single game. You have SUCH good value with this bet right now that I feel like you gotta turn it into some kind of profit, that's all. But good luck, let us know what you end up doing, I'll be curious.

    I like your philosophy STAX. Less stress, more fun.

    I like OSU ML tomorrow for sure. If you want to be safe I would possibly put money on Oregon ML if they are losing in the 3rd or 4th, but other than that let it ride.
