Close to closing a 25 team open parlay

[popcornmoney]

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!

[tto827]

Best of luck, I cannot read a damn thing on that attachment way too small.

[popcornmoney]

Thx man! Sorry, on my cell phone. I'll post another shot when I get on a laptop.

[ProfaneReality]

gonna venture a guess... a bunch of -1500 plays.

Congrats

[popcornmoney]

Thx! Yessir, mostly. Had one dog pick earlier in the parlay but not a big dog.

[popcornmoney]

3 pending slots and one open pick remaining to close the parlay out. Any suggestions on my last leg?

[SBR Lou]

Good job so far. Welcome to SBRforum, hell of a way to begin.

[hels]

[popcornmoney]

Thanks Lou!!

Hels, I edited my post and copy and pasted the ticket. Sorry, kinda of a newbie at forums.

[Jrod124]

nice job, be careful these opens can be addicting. They are a lot of fun!

[popcornmoney]

Thanks Jrod! I hear ya. Not really a parlay person, but when I joined 5Dimes I saw these open parlays. I had to play a few haha. I never knew they existed. Very fun indeed!

[accuscoresucks]

looks great red hot

[MUHerd37]

I discovered open parlays not quite a year ago. Right now I have like 67 of them pending. Don't get carried away like I did.

lmao, I gotta do something like this; grind it out over a month or two

[popcornmoney]

Thanks Accus!

Whoa Herd, that's a lot of active parlays. Actually more parlays than I have dollars in my account haha.

I never intended to have that many. It's completely moronic really. Just lucky I haven't completely fukked myself............yet.

[popcornmoney]

@ convick, haha what's wrong with this bet? I know it's a super duper favorite, but I'm looking to close this bad boy out.

[tblues2005]

How many do you have left? It looks good to me!

[vincanity15]

Looks like Charl is the only one who can screw you now. Gl

Thanks! I have 3 pending and my 25th slot is still open. I'm still trying to decide on what my last pick will be.

[popcornmoney]

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.

[popcornmoney]

Just put in my last pick. Was super tempted to say F' it and pick Indy Colts on the ML bet to bank $700+. But then I opted for the less exciting, higher favorite, zero gangsta pick below:

[haserfauld]

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

[ttwarrior1]

if your just wanted that 300 bucks, u must take some big favs

otherwise i say go for it and take some teams favored around ten pts

[HatersGonnaHate]

where do you go on 5dimes to see these open parlays?

[vincanity15]

Schwartzel leader early in round 3. Gonna be a sweat tomorrow.

[leafs_ducks]

What is N.open.parlay. Never heard of.it. Does pinny offer them?

[agendaman]

tip play w/popcorn money

[MUHerd37]

where do you go on 5dimes to see these open parlays?

Do a parlay on 5dimes and where u enter the amount to wager, there is also a box where u can add open slots.

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!

Thx Tech!

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.
