    Good luck everyone. Took a chill pill so ill just ignore any trolls.. im a good guy.

    Tailing some people here, some of my friends. odds dont look too right on my numbers
    ...might be in my favor. Also, numbers a bit confusing so bear with me

    5 team parlay:
    NBA: Denver ML +110
    NBA: OKC ML -240
    CBB: James Mad. ML -180
    CNN: Alabama ML -120
    NBA: Houston +4.5

    10$ to pay $155


    3 team parlay:
    CBB: J.Mad-3.5
    NBA: Denver ML +110
    NBA: Houston ML +180

    10 to pay $106

    Straight Up:
    Cbb: J.Mad ML -180
    $120 to pay 180

    I used some parlay calculator and they didnt agree with my slips winnings

    I dont kno.
    Couple of my friends like JMAD so if they dont cover or win, im fukked.

    Hoping for a good night.

    Wish u all, lets have some fun tonight


    Thanks In advance for repliesm

    -180 would not be 120 to win 180.
    You'd need to bet 180 to win 100.

    Nothing about that is correct. if you bet 120 on a -180 line you should profit $66.67 if you only profiting 60 then you are getting -200.

    Right I bet $120 at -180 odds...if i win I get 60 profit plus 120....payout 180....

    Is this not corrct? If not vlame it on the alcohol cause I think i have a firm grip on odds. Theyre odds are wrong.

    Thanks. Ive concluded that these numbers they give me might be off 10 cents...maybe change of currency? Their -120 prices are -110....

    So their -120=-110 and -180=-200

    Most of the guys that bet there dont have a clue but I sensed something weird. Oh well, they pay so....

    Its not much but ill give you 2 points daily like I said. You didnt get smart and actually took the time to help me out a bit.

    Thanks.

    ...the lines arent the clearest and you cant pull up a chair and ur phone in the shop, know what I mean? Its gotta be in and out...

    Thanks for the response. Won my straight bet and Denver lost by one point...fukk my life.

    looking again at the numbers, it looks like whoever your betting with is skimming $6 off the top of every bet - so whoever your betting with is a flat out cheat (or the gov't).

    nope, just skimming 6$ off the top; add 6 to all your payouts and the numbers come out correct - he also rounds all change down which allows him to skim off a bit more.

    Some Serious Advice.

    #1 stop playing parlays

    #2 How odds work: For negative odds (such as -120, -180, -200), you win what you bet multiplied by 100/odds. For positive odds, you win what you bet multiplied by odds/100.

    #3 If you want information, you should google it instead of posting on a forum. google doesn't call people names or make fun of them.
