This 3 team parlay looks good,but I'm broke so it will probably hit.

I am sure you could find somebody here who will book that bet for you.

Watch me win this and I won't have any money on it just to upset me further.

Nah, I wouldn't trust Tampa. Everything else looks fine...

3 team parlays will bust you in the long run.

3 team RL parlays will bust you a lot sooner.

I for one wouldn't risk 824 bucks to win 100

thejrichshow85 · 07-21-08, 09:58 AM

oakland wins ...2 out of 3 ain't bad ...hope its a round robin cuz tampa is not winning tonight!

Wilforth · 07-21-08, 10:00 AM

Johnson is 10-0 against the Cubs! That can't be a coincidence.

Plus Johnson won his last 2 games.

He has not faced them in over 4 years , and has declined some in that time.

vtvsports · 07-21-08, 10:49 AM

Didn't Oakland give up on the season? Hey...and don't go crazy on those runlines big timer!!!

How many times can you cash 3 RL straight wagers in a day? You have to be extraordinarily lucky to cash a 3-team parlay based on the RL of favorite teams.

Well, it has about approximatley 10% chance of winning. I'd book it but maybe at a lesser wager at say $50 or something.

Ok, I see we're on the same side.

pokernut9999 · 07-21-08, 04:05 PM

3 team parlays will bust you in the long run. ( Means you will lose your money in the long run )

3 team RL parlays will bust you a lot sooner. (Means you will lose your money faster )

Exactly! And you lose it in agonizing ways.

PN,
I was thinking the same thing when I read the original post. Getting a three teamer to hit is difficult enough when you add the run line...let's just say there is going be a lot of dry spells between hits...

Last Friday is one of the few days this year that I remember it to have been easy. I am sure there may have been other days but not too many.

awholelottalumps · 07-21-08, 05:05 PM

Well I have hit 3 team run lines parlays in the past and I do agree that there not easy to hit,but the reasons I like these teams are because Tampa is coming off a rare home loss and I can't see them losing two straight at home as I see a 5-2 Tampa win.Johnson is 12-0 career vs the Cubs,but he's not the same dominate pitcher of old and Harden is throwing for the Cubs and I think the Cubs get to Johnson here 7-2.I like the LA Angels with Santana going against Byrd.Byrd has been awful and I'm aware of Santana's 0-5 career record vs Cleveland,but I always go with who's pitching and how the teams are as of today.

BuddyBear · 07-21-08, 05:09 PM

I'll book this bet for $50 if you want awholelottalumps?

BuddyBear · 07-21-08, 05:45 PM

so?

smitch124 · 07-21-08, 05:49 PM

you would book it?? He used the "broke" in the title of the thread...

BuddyBear · 07-21-08, 05:51 PM

He's a degenerate gambler, he'll find money somehow......

smitch124 · 07-21-08, 05:56 PM

lol ok, I think booking broke guys bets may be even slightly less successful than 3 team run line parlays...

BuddyBear · 07-21-08, 05:59 PM

Yeah, I figure it's a free $50 for me so I would have liked to book it. It would have filled up the car and I am going on a trip this weekend.

He's probably been at the bank all afternoon applying for a loan. He'll be back though....

awholelottalumps · 07-21-08, 07:45 PM

Thanks for the offer,but I have money on me just not in my account.Besides how would you have book this for me,just curious?I just got back home so I'm just reading this now and TB is up 4-0 in the 5th.I went out of my comfort zone this past week and paid for it,big time.I might off taken you up on your offer,but it's too late now.If it hits though I won't be surprised.

rake922 · 07-21-08, 10:07 PM

2 more to go

BuddyBear · 07-21-08, 10:12 PM

We would have figured something out.....Anything is possible with the internet.

BuddyBear · 07-21-08, 10:48 PM

Looks like you can sleep better tonight since it looks like 2 out of the 3 are losers.

awholelottalumps · 07-22-08, 07:30 AM

I should of researched my picks better as Santana was 0-5 career vs Cleveland and Randy Johnson was undefeated at 13-0 vs the Cubs.I usually get all the facts before I post my picks,but was lazy yesterday and it won't happen again.
