    Has to be for publicity... everyone knows that if you play all favorite ML'S One is bound to lose

    It's for the novice player who doesn't know any better who's going to read this... and say HEY!! I WANNA TRY!!


    I won't believe this story until I see a photo... full name... etc. was it Brock Lander's cousin?

    i think its true. i mean people win 100's of millions in the lottery...sometimes very rare occurrences happen.

    I'm sure it's true. High correlation parlays win all the time. Sadly, the average bettor ignores all warning of the futility of string betting and throws parlays like this out all the time. One's gotta hit every now and then, unfortunately it's usually after they've lost much more than prospective win. My friends who barely know anything about sports will throw out 10 teamers all the time. For like $5 or $10 though, putting $100 on 25 teamer takes balls, stupidity, or probably a wealthy demeanor. Most likely it's a combination of all three.

    BetOnline actually paying would be more of a sweat than the parlay itself

    Regardless if its true or not...publicity on the FRONT PAGE of yahoo, is bad for U.S. gamblers.. good for betonline in the short term but bad overall for the business as a whole. Unless things get regulated publicity like this just leads to bigger problems...

    Is it me or does 250-1 odds on a 23 team parlay seem rather low?

    Because it was money lines. Haha.. a guy I know hit 15 teams last year (16 pushed) $5/$28000. For some reason it didn't make the Yahoo news.

    Since when is 250 to 1 a miracle? In my estimation this happens once every 250 parlays or so.

    yes bought it or rather sold it up to 13.5. couldn't buy down that GT game just yet. the GT game is one of the ones I just tossed in. not sure about it.

    Every week I do one of these stupid large parlays just for fun.

    I couldn't agree more for the past 3 years I've always wonder is this the last season of online betting.
