    man never bet on both sides unless 1 is ML and one is ATS so that you can potentially profit both ways.

    doing what you mentioned is kind of shooting yourself in the foot.

    good luck and trust your gut. At some point you just gotta take a shot and let it ride.

    Listen to Bear. At this point in my drunkenness, it's the definite way to go.

    3 team parlay is 12.5% chance of winning because you have 50% chance to win your first game, 25% chance to win your first and second game "2 team parlay" and 12.5% chance to win all three games "3 team parlay".

    Your asking to split the 3rd game into two outcomes, 12.5% + 12.5% is 25% chance.
    Your two 3 team parlay is equal to one 2 team parlay. 25% chance.
    Maybe I'm wrong but I think I got this.
