Opinions on my Parlay......Please give them....

cwsulzba · 04-11-07, 10:49 AM

I am a Minnesota sports fan, so I have all of my teams covered as well.

Bill Dozer · 04-11-07, 12:27 PM

The hoops teasers are fun. You are always in those until the end. I would sweat the Bucks game the most... Crazy time of year in NBA. GL!

onlooker · 04-11-07, 12:57 PM

The Cardinals are going to screw that thing up early.

Good luck with it though.

jjgold · 04-11-07, 01:06 PM

Where did you bet that at guy?

What book?

cwsulzba · 04-11-07, 01:14 PM

I dont care, I love the Cardinals....They are up 2-1 right now.

I placed this bet at 5Dimes.

cwsulzba · 04-11-07, 01:15 PM

I put that early game on there so that I could do the exact same parlay with a different baseball game if the Cardinals were to lose. I thought the Pirates were a great pick, but I just do not feel comfortable betting for them.

Mudcat · 04-11-07, 01:24 PM

It's basically like buying a lottery ticket. You will almost definitely lose but maybe you can have some fun with it for a little while.

Now if you play these kinds of parlays as a matter of routine, that is a very bad idea IMO. You will consistently throw away a lot of money.

cwsulzba · 04-11-07, 01:25 PM

Geez, very intuituve. You must be some sort of genius.

Show Mudcat some fuucking respect, you clown. You post some donkey parlay like anyone else would give a shiit, he takes the time to give an honest and accurate assessment and you respond with some idiotic sarcasm. As a native Minnesotan, you embarrass me.

Nismo · 04-11-07, 03:06 PM

Cards win. Got the hardest one out of the way.

GL

chano · 04-11-07, 03:09 PM

Why should he show Mudcat some respect after he makes a remark that is an attempt to indicate that he is a moron and doesnt know that these types of wagers are like lottery tickets. Make a decent remark and you get a decent answer.

LT Profits · 04-11-07, 03:15 PM

Here's a polite way of saying what Mudcat was getting at.

Even with all the point buying in the world, 11-team parlays are a guaranteed loser in the long run if played continuously. However, if this is a once in a while fun popshot for a fraction of a unit, then what the hell, why not?

jjgold · 04-11-07, 04:36 PM

its a fun bet and low investment with a decent return, keeps interest in the night without betting the whole board.

rmcaj · 04-11-07, 04:50 PM

hey JJ wheres our daily video for today?

cwsulzba · 04-11-07, 05:52 PM

Thanks for the feedback fellas, the action is about to begin shortly.

cwsulzba · 04-11-07, 10:35 PM

So far so good.

rmcaj · 04-12-07, 12:13 AM

its in the bank

sabe · 04-12-07, 12:35 AM

Congrats, that's a hell of a win!

LT Profits · 04-12-07, 12:38 AM

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!

cws, could you float me a loan?

moses millsap · 04-12-07, 12:40 AM

You've just unlocked the secret: 11 team parlays.

LargeMouthBass · 04-12-07, 12:46 AM

Very Nice...

onlooker · 04-12-07, 12:51 AM

Good job.

Now lets see how often you can hit those.

cwsulzba · 04-12-07, 01:49 AM

I actually hit another 9 teamer tonight, but one of the plays got cancelled on a push. A lot of the same games though. Of course the idiot that I am I proceeded to lose 300 dollars playing poker. It was a nice win though.

I am going to post these parlays that I have been doing that I have nearly hit the past couple of weeks, it is been unbelievably close until tonight.

I finally got one right though....Although these parlays buying points are the way to go. If the Mavs were favored by 15 and the money line was -1900, if you just by back the 15 points the money line moves to -410...........works swell.

chano · 04-12-07, 10:47 AM

5 Dimes will be closed real soon. Hey guys, lets keep this to ourselves and lets hammer all the books by betting these parlays.

LT Profits · 04-12-07, 11:35 AM

Ah chano you quick-witted one you!

csw,

Yes you hit the big one tonight, and congrats. However, it DOES appear that you are playing way too many of these. As I mentioned, you will lose in the long run no matter how many points you buy, as there will almost always be those 1/2-point and 1-point and fluke losses to blow up your seemingly easy ticket. Now I do not know how long you have been playing these, but if it has not been long then you hit the jackpot with a $1,500 hit this early in the game. Now enjoy your winnngs, but do not think that you have found the Holy Grail.

Good Luck to You.

cwsulzba · 04-12-07, 01:24 PM

I think it is the Holy Grail of fun, especially since I have NBA TV, it is so fun to watch all the games and have on big bet on them. Life does not get much better.
