      But that depends. Parlaying isn't a winning strategy but it pays if you're very selective and only parlay when the opportunity is excellent. Two-teamers aren't bad but more than 3 could be a waste. Today for instance, Angels/Giants could cash.

        i will just say this, i seee so many baseball games. and such unreal shit happens, from kevin gregg blowing save after save to teams coming back from 5-6 runs down everyday
        its just so hard to parlay mlb bc anyone can beat anyone

        if you parlay,id stick to nfl

          Agreed. If you parlay "value plays" (say plays of not less than -120), then each 2-teamer will be +236 or more. Then you'll be good enough at 40%.

            Two-teamers work better in soccer than in baseball.

                    yep
                    they never seem to lose, they never seem to tie or even go to OT

                    easy money is first round of euro and wc

                    then i lose it all back in the next round

                    but the first round is so easy its not even fair

                    just dont bet the 2nd or later rounds
                    favorites win every single time in round 1, or at least 80%+

                                        Nice job man, takes some balls to do that, was a good numbers play, I wonder if you did that for an entire year if you could make $$$, 2k a day on a 15k investment is quite awesome.

                                              I've run this based on a few months of mlb - you'd be up about 3% based on pinnacle lines.

                                              However, if you used multiple accounts and took the best market price available (ie the best book price, at near its highest point), it'd be a fair bit more.

                                                    I actually used to do a little bit of this strategy on paper to see where it would leave me... about 3 months of following it you will find that NL underdogs win much more than AL... just a tip

                                                      you just gotta pick the right day, heh. If you had done this on 8/25 and 8/26, you would've really cleaned up. Most of the big favorites lost.

                                                          i liked it yesterday, today is a bit riskier
                                                          though i think you will win today, but less
