Weird Parlay Question for Parlay bettors

[Big Bear]

Do any of you ever do multiple parlays and sometimes for example lets say
RedSox vs Tigers are playing tonight....

and have one parlay that includes Red Sox and one parlay that includes Tigers?

Personally I've never seen the point. As soon as you submit the 2nd parlay you garuntee one of them has just lost. If you are unsure on who you like on a game I'd say it's probably better to leave the game out of both parlays.

I try to bet only on games I percieve as being +EV. So unless there was a big swing on the line I don't see how that would happen where both teams had an edge.

Just my oppinion though, would like to see what other people think.

Yeah never really put teams like that on different parlays. Did that when I first started betting and paid the price with one or the other. If you have a split feeling on a game personally I would just no play it.

It make sense to me if you are trying to cut back on the juice of a game for a single wager...

For example say you bet tex/bos both sides with LAA and say both pay $100 to win $190, so you are risking $200 technically $100 if the angels are like guaranteed a win, so you are getting $100:$90 odds instead of risking like $130 to win $90 or whatever the odds are that day. When LAA loses though you end up losing $200 and now you are looking at -200 juice instead of like -140. So it only make sense to do this if you are really really really really one team is going to win.

I have a coworker who bets NBA parlays, say he really loves the under in one of the games. He will bet $20 to win $55 on Mia and under then bet $10 on IND as a single bet. If mia covers and goes under He makes $45. If Mia does not cover only loses $10. Where as if he just bet $10 on a parlay to win $27.50 or whatever he is not getting as much bang for his buck. But loses twice as much whenever Mia covers and goes overs.
