I dont know if its great and Im sure not too many people are going to agree with it but eh wish my luck or I may be done really early.
Money management is key. I am just guessing that could be an issue for you, especially since you are new.
You are down to your last $20 and betting it all on a 5 team parlay. That may not be the worst thing in the world if you were just taking a shot and planning on depositing again when it doesn't hit. However, it looks like you have to call it quits if it loses. IMO, you would be better off placing $5 bets on a few games you really like, or maybe even $10 on a couple. $20 on one game would even be a better choice, IMO. Build it back to $50 or so to give yourself some breathing room. All of that is being said assuming you can't or aren't going to fund your account if it loses.
I personally don't do many parlays. When I do it is just for fun 95% of the time with a small amount of money.
Thanks Balls2theWall, and yes I do plan on making another deposit if this doesnt hit, it was sorta a hit it big or deposit big move after a very bad week for me. Kinda like buying in for a min at a poker table to shove all in to get lucky, not the smartest but probably not the worst.
Big- I agree abo0ut SU I kept going back and forth and figure they have been doing really bad first half. Figured being at home with a team they should dominate that, they will bring this to double digits before half time, and was afraid the second half they would try different line ups to see what they would like. I know last game syracuse covered half, but not game or 10 mins so that was my reasoning, possibly flawed, of course I also said to myself if they are up by 10 at half they are most likely going to cover so who knows. But thank you very much for your input
