    Had Atlanta covered tonight
    I had a single play on the Hawks (-9), a two-team, four-point teaser on the Hawks and Nuggets, a two-team straight-up parlay on the Hawks and Nuggets, a four-team parlay on the Hawks/under and Nuggets/over, and a five-team, 22:1 parlay on the Hawks, Nuggets, Tigers, Yankees and Cardinals.

    I would have literally doubled my bankroll.

        I made quite a bit back with the over and the 2nd half over in the Denver game, but (and shari you'd appreciate this), I didn't bet a dime on the Nuggets side.

            Another what if story from NC trying to get people to feel sorry for him. Just be lucky you didn't lose your bankroll for the 4th time. It's not wise to take cheap shots at someone like me NC

              That sucks man. That 22:1 parlay would have been huge.

                Parlays are made to bounce like that.

                Get them next time.

                  I made one huge play in my life and lost.

                  Not sure where you're getting the "fourth time" nonsense, but thanks for stalking me again.

                  You make a lot of friends on this board, eh Goat?

                    None of the parlays cost me much, other than the two-team, four-point tease. I sunk a decent chunk of change into that one.



                    On the day, I was close to even. Got fvkked hard on the SF disaster in baseball.

                      That kept me from going 3-0 today, and 10-0 the last two days.

                          Great job. I wish you'd post your plays -- you seem to have a great feel for capping.

                          That SF game was a horrific beat.

                            I don't think i've ever put a -110 in 5 different tickets...

                                In live-betting, at one point Atlanta was up like 6 points with around 4 minutes left and the ml for Milwaukee was +1100...crazy. I typed in 500 dollars to win 5500 but then canceled it. That would have been a crazy hit.

                                  Yes.

                                  The line was ridiculously high, and the ML was borderline absurd (I think +475?)

                                  I get the feeling sharps lost a boatload on this game.

                                    Can I give you some valuable advice that might help you??

                                    Anyways, to save for these occurences/near misses this is what you do and I have emplyoyed this with great success. Something, it came to me lying in the bed one nite thinking about gambling


                                    Say you have 5 games you like. Mix them all up in a hat and draw 2 teamers. Draw say 5 2-teamers and then do say 3 3 -teamers 2-4 teamers and then do 1- 5 teamer with all your lottery picks. The 2 teamers you assign more weight to because you are going to hit some of those everytime unless you completely shit the bed and pick all losers. the three teamers assign less weight and 4 teamers even less and so on and so forth.


                                    This strategy on a nite like tonite you would still have made money if you assign weight properly and then been in the running for the long shot.

                                    Trust me this works and I use to do it all the time when I was "underfunded" I rarely play parlays now and when I do it is strictly a 2 teamer. I sometimes will play more teams on a ML parlay like last nite I had all 4 favorites on the ML parlayed and it worked and payed out nice +ML odds instead of risking -360 or so on each individual team.

                                    Me, personally I don't really reccommend the parlay and I only play them if I really, really feel strongly I can't pass it up. Hope this helps.

                                      Thanks, lyon. What can I say -- I'm a sucker for parlays, though I've literally never played one more than two teams for more than $10. Mostly just $5.

                                      For instance, on Thursday, I'm already eyeing:

                                      Astros RL
                                      Dodgers RL
                                      Spurs -3.5
                                      SA/DAL over 191

                                            You know, I almost hope those ratbags win the series now. At least then I know there'll be a 2nd round series I'm guaranteed to save money on since I won't bet them at all. Should never even have bet the 2H in that game. Mother f'ers.

                                              I'm not on this board to make friends buddy; I really don't care who likes me and who doesn't. I know my shit and I'm a winner and I like to discuss things with other people who know their shit, and that's why i'm on this forum.
                                              For someone who claims not to care, you sure do seem to care.

                                              Question: what was the point of coming into this thread and falsely commenting -- unprovoked -- on how many times I've lost my bankroll? Did that fall under your "I like to discuss things with other people who know their shit, and that's why I'm on this forum" line of reasoning?

                                                Yeah, probably should jguin. That's a rough draft anyway; comments are appreciated.

In an argument that did not involve you the other day, you tried to sneak in a few cheap shots and attack me when I had only been kind to you before. Who the fvck do you think I am to sit there and take cheap shots from a random niggga on an internet forum? Just buy a ticket to detroit right quick cause I think Paco needs his nuts itched.
