I pushed on the USF/WVU total, but long story short, South Florida not covering by that small margin cost me about $600 on $20 in parlays tonight.



There's always one that costs you.

thats why you dont fade me i said all day and yesterday WVU is the best bet of the day... USF has lost like that all year

Game could have gone either way. Don't act like WVU won by double digits or something. USF was driving and in prime position to kick a game winning FG when fvcking Daniels fumbled.

Can I help you with your parlay betting?

Next time you have 7 games you like write them all down on a small piece of paper and put them in a hat. Then radomly draw (5) 2 team parlays (4) 3 team parlays (3) 4 team parlays (2) 5 team parlays (1) 6 team parlay and (1) 7 team parlay.


Every time you complete the parlay you have to put those teams back into the hat and re-draw. Sounds crazy but I figured it out during deep "thought" a few yrs ago. A nite like tonite and you would have won a shit load of parlays and made a killing. Even on an average nite going 4-3 you still have a good shot a winning a few 2 teamers maybe a 3 teamer and possibly a 4 teamer. This way you are not penalized for being almost right. You still can have the lottery ticket, but on nites when you get stung by 1 loser you still walk away happy and make a nice proft. Genius huh??

Yeah, I like the strategy.

I've actually quit doing parlays for the most part -- hadn't put one together in a while. Every time I do, something like this happens.

You will need to risk more for it to really pay. Obviosly bet the 2-teamers for more money and gradually scale down the bet size and the parlay odds increase.


For instance $50 2 teamers $30 3 teamers $10 4 teamers $10 5 teamers $5 6 teamers $ 5 7 teamers.



This works. But you have to be right and I wouldn't do it everyday. Only the nites you really feel you have the goods. Nite like tonite and you would have cleaned up.

Unfortunately, I didn't feel as confident in these plays separately. And in fact, one of my solo plays was USF +2.

You're the one posting this. Yet you get angry at someone else for replying.



Typical Small Bettor Syndrome characteristics shown with your post.

He has Small Bettor Syndrome (SBS). So not, its not possible.

About to happen again today.

I have 4 small parlays paying out over 11:1 total odds on about 3 units in action hinging on the UCLA ML (to win 33.2 units).

It was 30-19 Bruins when every other game in these parlays became complete and it got down to the last leg. Now they're down 7.

Unreal.

[dynamite140]

Does it matter how much you bet when you bet so small? And then whine when you lose and say the game was rigged?
