    The Mildly Irritate Your Bookie Double Up Your Bankroll ML Parlay of the Day

    I love those ridiculous thread titles so I had to try one....

    here it is, kind of a ML parlay that i think is solid, but would appreciate some commentary....

    UNC ML
    Minn ML
    Mich St +10.5 (buy 9.5 pts)

    at +115

    any thoughts on this, I probably will try to double up my small bankroll on this play??

    I like it...a little worried about UNC but they should win this one on the road...Mich St +10.5 is great since I like them at +1.

    I got UNC in a ML parlay posted in my thread. Minn should win this game, but they are careless with the ball and they worry me a little in this game with an Illnoi team that has more talent then their record forcasts. I played Mich St. ML as Well +100.

    why do you guys always play parlays that are -110 or +110?

    why force teams into them to reach -110 or better?

    yeah kind of....

    like if you lay -150 on a 70 dollar bet, you win about 40 or so, really doesn't get you anywhere dollar wise, but i see your point

    I beg to differ, there is a poster on another forum who is ahead +122 units. I'm ahead +13 units on these type of ML Parlays.

    Why don't you paper bet this kind of parlay for awhile and see how you do. Don't mind the juice unless it's over -230 and just enter teams who you believe are the nuts.

    I have a feeling it will show to be profitable..

    I have played my share of parlays in the -150 range. However, i will always look for plays with a stronger pay out. I have learned to be a little more selective with these plays, only making 4 last week and going a rather week 2-2. However, by selecting plays with a plus number i was still able to end up +4.5 units on those plays. With that said, you have much more experience and are far wiser than i imgv and i will certainly try to look for more plays and avoid forcing anything. Your councel is always welcome

    It's not that I'm wiser sir.

    I'm just saying for years I would struggle with ML Parlays and I would do the same thing (trying to get the odds to -110)

    Earlier this season I witnessed someone on another forum who at the time was ahead 38 units betting into parlays where the juice was anywhere between -130 to -200 most of the time. He is currently ahead +122 units now.

    I think his ML Parlay style makes a lot of sense cause you are not forcing teams into it. But I guess it's still relatively short term so maybe we're just lucky but I'd like to add that I've never been this excited over a type of wager in a long time.

    I'm going to be upset when the CBB season is over even if I give the ML Parlay money back cause I'm still trying to improve the formula. Any mistakes I make with these parlays are a lesson and I've had quite a few lessons..

    GL $Bnizi love the avatar.
