Multiple sides of a Parlay

[ClimbSomeRocks]

I know you can bet all 8 ways of a 3teamer with a free play and net about 75%. I was wondering what you guys think about betting 5 or 6 sides and not betting the ones that you are nearly sure are not going to hit. Will this be more profitable then just betting against the team that you are sure is not going to hit?

It seems as if you would have more outs, but would lose a lot more if you lost

Two different issue. How good is your handicapping? And what is the payout on the parlay? 4-teamers at Greek pay only 10:1, making them less than ideal for higher legged parlays.

right now it's not that great, I was more looking into the possibility of finding a system that even with only 50% handicaping could be profitable, My guess is there isn't one that's already discovered. But taking what seems to be a sure play and playing 5 ways of a 3team parlay, not including the 3 where one is sure or has a very strong play against a certain side/team
