    I need some help criticising my plays 2nite and understanding bookies lines n prices
    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.

              Sorry, misunderstood. You bet $120, total payout is $180?

                Yes I did bet 120...payout says 18o...which would be winnings of 60.

                its all confusing since im feeling pretty good. All I know is LETS go JMAD$!

                Good luck everyone ill be behaved in here even if the smartasses come to mske a loss so much more pleasureable.

                Lol

                  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.

                      he would have to bet $320 to win $180 on a -180 line. i dont think OP knows what hes doing.

                          Thanks man it seemed like there was something weird. Their prices are odd...but what I risked to what I win is clear...and they pay so....

                              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.

                                        Dont think I kno what im doing in terms of what? I knew the odds were off somewhat,i just didnt have a parlay calculator on my phone...probably to drunk to use one lol
                                        ...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.

                                        Good luck mud

                                          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.
