    Need a Miracle

    So my book canceled a 1300 dollar bet on the Yankees -1.5 (Friday's game) because I "exceeded the maximum of 500" (me and my brother use the same account and there have been over 500 dollar bets before, that POS). In any event, I'm in the hole big time and the week ends today. I'm not gonna stiff this guy on paying him, although I probably should. The purpose of this post, is that I need a miracle parlay hit. Between 4 and 5 teams. I have a 5 leg parlay that needs 3 legs today, (won the over in Celtics/Cavs yesterday, and the over in VAN/CHI, pending Penguins/over Pens game, and over SJ game).


    What I'm looking for is a bases parlay for today between 4 and 5 teams. I put an 8 teamer in yesterday that I don't expect to hit with FLA, STL, MIN, NYY, OAK, TEX, Milwaukee NBA, and Pens NHL. What I'm searching advice wise is what you guys think are the best 4-5 out there. I know it would probably be smarter to find a one team straight hit, but the book isn't gonna allow me to place anything over $500 and I'm down $2000. So if I can get some advice on here on what y'all think are the best 4-5 today, it'd be appreciated, I know I am new here, but I have been surfing the forum for a while and respect the opinions of many on here.


    Thanks.

    instead of doing 4 or 5 just do 3 on runlines
    minn -1.5
    braves -1.5
    flor -1.5

    then after that just put 500 on mets

    I can't add Boston because of the way my book set up his stupid website, my brother already bet BOS straight and it won't let me add it into any parlay. I hate this dude. I shouldn't pay him, super shady week with the limits and canceling my Yankee bet.

    I haven't the slightest, I logged in right after the game to place some action and a pop up came up saying MAX BET IS 500 NOT 1300, and my bet was gone. I'd assume it was during the game, I last checked a half hr before game and it was still there, and I doubt he canceled it when NYY was down 3-0 in 1st?

    I'm probably gonna have to take a break after this week (unless a miracle hits, LOL) for a bit, for a month or so, but I will definitely be doing an online book when I come back to it.

    Bumping this up because FLA, ATL, and STL are all covering right now. Twins have a 1 run lead and just left the bases loaded with one out. Is Minnesota the team who is gonna ruin this miracle hit for me y'all think?

    I can't believe you would continue to wager after something like this happened.

    Let's see, first you didn't read the bet size limits, so you bet more than the $500 limit and your bet was cancelled.

    Then, you went to place a parlay bet but the bet size limit is $100, so you couldn't make the bet you wanted.

    Here is an idea. Instead of complaining about the owner of the web site perhaps you could sign up for some reading classes? And maybe invest in a reading primer like "Hookers on Phonics"

    Theres are those that bet smart with a good MM and still are unfortunate... and then there are those that gamble their money stupidly and the gambling gods reward you ... how unfair...

    And I have good mm. 2k is only about 1/20th of bankroll, so if I lose it in one week, big deal. With a book it's a week by week basis that's why I went for the double up on the Yankee game. Why is everyone so bitter? I thought mostly everyone was cool on this site, guess not. Thanks JamesBrown, and the 2 people who gave me advice earlier. Everyone else if you wanna be bitter cus I may hit if STL holds this lead, be my guest. I didn't do anything to you people.

    I guess I'll just go back to reading instead of posting, because god forbid the Baseball Handicapping forum at SBR be bothered by someone like me. Enjoy.
