    Close to closing a 25 team open parlay

    Hi all! I've been ghosting on these forums for the past few months just soaking up game. Thanks for all the great info and entertainment as well. Not a gigantic gambler but a like to toss around some small bets so watching sports gets a tad bit more exciting. I'm almost closing my first open parlay. Was wondering if y'all had any tips for me? I attached a screenshot to this thread.

    Cheers!

    Thanks Vin! TBH I don't even follow golf. I just saw the odds and ran with it. Hopefully my no-knowledge of the sport doesn't bite me in the ass.

    Just imagine. If you'd done that with $50, it'd pay $3620!

    Good luck though. I play them for $25 each. I've missed 7 now and hit 2, but they paid $360 and $720, so long run still very profitable.

    Edit: And I usually play 8-12 team, not 25. haha

    I know man! Would have been so sweet to bet just a tad bit more. This was my first open parlay, it was a 25 teamer and I usually don't bet no more than 5-10 for single games so at the time it was just one of those "I'll try this out for the heck of it but won't risk much" scenarios. Ahhh man!

    Already put in my last pick which was a super high favorite at -14400. Was so tempted to bet a dog though to almost triple the winnings. In short, I punked out haha.
