Round Robin Anyone?

[+Even]

Here's what I'm doing this week in celebration for the first full weekend of football with NCAA and NFL. I'm going to scour all the picks tomorrow and Wed. Then by Thursday evening I will have 8 picks that I will make between NCAA and NFL. I'm going to use those 8 picks to create 70 combinations of 4-team parlays. Here's the math:

A 4-team parlay (all teams -110) pays out 12.28 to 1
A $10 4 team parlay pays $122.80
8 picks results in 70 possible combinations of 4
70 $10 parlays costs $700
If I finish 3-5 or worse I lose $700
If I finish 4-4 I lose $567.20
If I finish 5-3 I lose $36.00
If I finish 6-2 I end up with $1,992.00
If I finish 7-1 I end up with $4,648.00
If I finish 8-0 I end up with $9,296.00
Lets win at least 6

Pretty risky. Good luck though.
