I was feeling good about it until you used the L word.

Orlando

Plenty of 20 point games in the nba

Houston the road and playing real well..watch out

dilaudid8 · 12-02-13, 04:18 PM

ck7 the risk is not worth the reword 500 to win737 you have to win all 4 games to win 737

like I said even if you win you lose winning all 4 games bol

dilaudid8 · 12-02-13, 04:18 PM

bol

VegasInsider · 12-02-13, 04:19 PM

L word is just a myth

chingo · 12-02-13, 04:32 PM

Catch77 · 12-02-13, 04:40 PM

Only iffy one is Magic. Prsonally id trust the Spurs >>>> Magic

ck7 · 12-02-13, 04:41 PM

The NBA is so insane I would not be shocked to see Rockets lose in Utah, gotta be honest.

Doubtful but not impossible...

new era · 12-02-13, 04:42 PM

Im sure it'll hit, but you could psycho analyze every single pick and tell us why its bad or could be wrong. IMO its a good bet.

Brutus84 · 12-02-13, 04:45 PM

College football much easier. Take Louisville ML, Northern Illinois ML, Auburn -2. What does 500 get on that?

What could go wrong?

I would LOVE to be on the other side of this ridiculous 4 team parlay. Why bothering throwing in a -1200 into it? Its just plain stupid. You're buying multiple points on the Saints and Magic and paying "vig" on each 1/2 point bought. I know small $20 bettors place bets like this but larger bettors rarely do because they know how terrible it is to rely on 4 teams coming through and barely getting even money for your troubles. If you haven't made the bet yet, DON'T DO IT as I can see Tony getting wood after seeing this bet go through, LOL.

ck7 · 12-02-13, 04:57 PM

Throwing the Spurs in adds 77 dollars to the payout, does anyone really see the Spurs losing at home tonight?

So what would you suggest? Betting a spread and praying you get lucky?

Vitothecapper · 12-02-13, 05:19 PM

Bet each game for a hundred on the straight line....You will always be better off that way....Either you will win more or loose less...Thats a guarantee!

BCC585 · 12-02-13, 05:26 PM

stratospro · 12-02-13, 05:27 PM

I agree with Vito in betting straights. You lose a couple and win a couple and you split.

On the other hand, you could lose all 4 and take a big hit, but odds are that wont happen.

Good luck tonight, let us know what you decide.

Heandog · 12-02-13, 05:36 PM

why not just play your best play of the card for the same amount you have a lot better odds of winning that way.

rockhardfister · 12-02-13, 05:48 PM

Milsap and Horford going off tonight

44 Mag · 12-02-13, 05:52 PM

Why don't you just throw in Portland over in a tease and add some more despair to this ???? It looks good, but if it looks to good to be true, it usually is.....

eddycash · 12-02-13, 05:58 PM

Saints can lose by 14 beware

ck7 · 12-02-13, 06:08 PM

Anyone else think Vanderbilt buying up looks good?

thevault13 · 12-02-13, 06:08 PM

You can play one solid play you like and make more then the payout on the 4 games??

This.

It's never worth it for a 4 teamer to win less than double your bet

Dirty Sanchez · 12-02-13, 06:15 PM

i'm also on orlando. houston ml should cash but i would bet the spread instead.

no value in spurs ml. take either NOP or POR instead.

Heres what I got so far:

2 open spots homeys.

ck7 · 12-02-13, 07:08 PM

Lets get rich being smart and patient dawgs. I'll try to lead the way.

Noleafclover · 12-02-13, 07:27 PM

I don't like saints +14.5 -400, I'm on saints +7 -125 but the seahawks can blow people out at home, I don't think you change the odds of covering by 30% there taking the extra.

And to the person who'd trust the spurs more than the magic, one is at -500, one -1200. Gotta agree with the masses, no value in spurs ml.

NardVa · 12-02-13, 07:29 PM

Orlando or the Rockets screw you.
