how to win more parlays?

trixtrix · 10-12-09, 05:07 PM

what's the difference between parlaying the mixed sports vs. simply betting one side in one sport and rolling your winnings into the other bet?

tltaylor89 · 10-12-09, 05:21 PM

You find as many overdogs as possible and do what is called the (stuffing method)stuffing method states that for every 10 teamer you have .Stuff at least 5 favorites in their .Some days are easier than other for parlays.Also when you do a parlay never have the same game linked to multiple parlays this can cost you money. Depends I can hit 10 teamers at an consistant rate because I stuff .From youre post it sounds like you only like maybe2-5 teamers which is fine I say maybe do 1 soccer 3 Tennis and 1 football play and lay just 1unit down on it.Just find as many easy wins as possible.(If you can donate 10 SBR points to me it would be greatly appreciated.)

Mixed sports does seem easier for some reason
Open parlays (taking one game and filling game two at a later date is also a decent way)

Just pick more winners.

Certain moon phases and planetary arrangements can lead to multiple unders or multiple heavy favorites to cover, etc. Just try astrophysics.com and try to line everything up.

Only way I know is to play correlated parlay, even a 8 points fav + 40 points total is better than a pk +40 points total. Also I find half time correlated parlay easier, something like, 6 points fav +20 1/2 is my favorite.

Correlated parlays are good. Also, in august, pluto was lined up with mercury for the entire month, in orbit, so i kept playing phillies or padres with the mets or the marlins, p's with m's, and i hit 5 of those in a row.

Look for more upsets on thursday, in the afternoon:;

Unsettled fields should cause unsettled teams to prosper in union.

But an -8 with an ov 40, yeah that makes sense. Low scoring blowouts are relatively rare.

Some crappy teams, if they are gonna win, you can bet the under as well...

Or just copy ttaylor89, because he "regularly hits 10-teamers".

tt89, what's the 10-teamer for tomorrow morning's u21 soccer tournament, lay it down man.

my main point was play moneyline parlays with different sports. Lets say you find 2 college football teams that just dominate 1 nfl team thats great then 2 college basketball team that are awesome. There you have five teams and you did not have to pick teams that are evenly matched with each other or just ok in the same sport. I often find if I force a play just to have action I lose. Remember learn from losing and see if you would have done things diffrently from betting. Also information is the key to winning.

the chance of hitting a 10 teamer is about 0.006 % if he is playing small favs,
he has to play 100's of them every day to win some of them in regularity

good points does seem easier when you mix points.

i think its not worth betting ten teamers cause its almost impossible to hit and if u take the money and bet maybe a 5 or 6 teamer.u will have a better chance

parlay is tough

pavyracer · 10-13-09, 09:54 AM

I mix football, basketball and soccer parlays all the time. Do a 9 teamer with -400. Easy money.

JGILL50 · 10-13-09, 09:58 AM

you have a 1-8 chance of hitting a parlay
it pays 6-1
no way to get ahead
the only way to win betting parlays is to save the money from not betting them

Unless you plan on increasing your ev, just bet more parlays. It's very simple

Parlay 2 teams that are -3000+ odds say your going to win. Just very little for you money

hillardoh · 10-13-09, 01:46 PM

I agree with oiler here the most a person should go is 5 or 6 team parlays.GREED KILLS AND PIGS GET SLAUGHTERED AND SHEEPS GET SKIMMED. Another words play no parlays you get nadda, play some parlays wisely and get some good payoffs. Also if your playing a 10 team parlay and your down to the last game you should hedge this bet. Better to have won half your bet than to lose it all.

the probability of hitting a 10 teamer is 1/2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2 which is
