    If someone went to Vegas and put 10,000 on a 10 team parlay and won 9, what happens?
    If someone had went to vegas and bet all games on going under the game total and 9 have been won, but the 10th game on the parlay would start tomorrow, would vegas fix the last game to make sure it goes over? I made a 10 team parlay for $1 and the payout was $1100, so if someone was crazy enough to put $10000 on a 10 teamer, the payout would be around $11,100,000. Would vegas let it ride or would they make the call to the NBA to make sure the last game goes over???

          Who would ever put $10k on a 10 teamer? Even Money Mayweather isn't that dumb...

          Maybe some oil sheik would throw away money on a 5 or 6 teamer but how much would they know about capping anyway? Vegas ain't scared of that type of bet.

              No, because both NBA and Vegas make more than enough money to be getting involved in scandals like this and risk their entire business.

                chances are that last leg of the parlay would be under 189.5... but with 3 secs left and the team down 7 would decide to foul with the total score sitting at 188... of course the guy would sink 2 free throws and the total would than be 190 resulting in you losing your 10 team 11 million dollar parlay win

                  lol....Im sure let's say a shit casino in Vegas like say the Flamingo Hilton has the pull to just pick UP the phone & say tell the players in the game tonight that we need the over so let them score.



                  I'm sure all 24 players in the game & 3 officials & approx 10 coaches & other management personnel would just zip their mouths & never say a word. Some of you people are unbelievable with your conspiracies. To even suggest that Vegas tells the teams to go over or under is so ignorant & moronic it's unfathomable.

                          Fade the last game and make sure 50% of winning
                          You need huge cash to do this but it would be a win win situation

                                      they dont make a call over one bet
                                      im guessing its comuterized all linked together and they can see the max loss win due to certain game outcomes
                                      and theres certain games fixed and certain games with a switch they can flip either way what ever best suits them finanially

                                        Yes, Las Vegas the city would collectively make a call on the bat phone direct to the NBA, in David Stern's lair. He would then inform the officials, coaches, and players involved in the game what the outcome should be. All of them would comply, making it look just plausibly real enough to be a legit game. None of the parties involved would ever speak a word of it to anyone for the rest of their lives. But we would all see the truth.

                                                      Really think you would be killed for winning too much?

I made a 10 team parlay for $1 and the payout was $1100, so if someone was crazy enough to put $10000 on a 10 teamer, the payout would be around $11,100,000. Would vegas let it ride or would they make the call to the NBA to make sure the last game goes over???
                                                        hmm not sure, but i think that if, you get 10, then you get a lot of blowjobs..

                                                        and if you hit 9.. then you get divorce papers.
