    What do you think of this parlay? $30 to win $45,000
    Cavaliers to win outright +220

    Lebron's chance to finally bring home a trophy to his hometown. Last year he almost single handedly beat a Warriors team without Love or Irving. Warriors haven't done anything this playoffs. They beat two bad teams.

    Cubs to win outright +300

    Seem like the best team in baseball and Chicago has been waiting on a World Series for quite sometime now. This team has the best pitcher in the game, and the best hitters. There's no deficit this time can't come back from.

    Penguins to win outright +200

    Just beat one of the best teams in Hockey and have been playing amazing. Lots of experience.

    Patriots to win outright +800

    Who in the AFC is going to give the Pats trouble? The Steelers, Bengals, Colts?

    France to win Euros +333


    They have the best team at the Euros and will be playing at home.

      I wouldn't argue France has the best team (Is Benzema even playing?) and I wouldn't bet them to win the Euros.

          The two best teams in the Euros are Germany and France. Griezmann is at the top of his game and would start over Benzema anyway.

          Griezmann-Mueller France
          Martial, Payet-Reus, Ballarabi France
          Kante, Pogba, Matuidi-Ozil, Gundogan, Kroos Germany
          Ginter, Hector-Sagna, Evra France
          Varane, Koscielny-Boateng, Hummels Germany
          Lloris-Neur Germany

          You could argue for either country to have the better side and you wouldn't be wrong, however playing on home soil is a huge benefit and I think that will be the reason for France's success. Not to mention Germany will most likely have to play Belgium to get a shot at playing France.

            I want to know where you're getting a five-team parlay that pays 1,500-to-1.

                Cavs lose. Pats lose. Gstate wins. And if I had to bet early I would say steelers come out of afc. Overall not good

                  Given you say re the payout of 45,000, I love this. But no way for $30 you are getting $45,000. People are knocking 1 or 2 of try selections, but think they are missing the point. All of those teams have a shot.

                    Rather put Raptors to win East. Don't think they can beat Warriors but they are surely a live dog against Cavs.

                        Most books should offer you those odds. If you make that parlay at Betfair sportsbook you get 1397,25

                        The odds on the exchange are as follows:
                        Cavs 3,65
                        France 4,4
                        Patriots 9,6
                        Cubs 5,1
                        Penguins 2,92

                        Which should give a parlay odds of ( if you could parlay them ): ( 3,65 * 4,4 * 9,6 * 5,1 * 2,92) = 2296

                          This is what I was thinking.

                              I think most if not all european books offer this. I dont know about US facing books though. But there should be no reason not to offer these types of bets. The outcomes are not correlated in any way.

                                Everyone of your picked teams have a chance but for all of them to hit you just have much luck so why not its only 30

                                    Cavs- could only if they play okc
                                    Euros- toss up
                                    Cubs- look good
                                    Pats- ZERO chance.

                                      lol another huge obstacle presents itself...Idk, France finally looked convincing in their last game and Germany lost a few players in Hummels, Gomez and Khedira. Germany did not look very good with Gomez because they don't have a true striker on their team. Khedira is a huge loss as well because you don't want schweinsteiger playing 90 min. Hummels another huge loss as one of the best centre backs in the world. So let's look at the matchup once again. Now I'm just guessing here:

                                      Forward: France
                                      Giroud-Mueller
                                      Payet-Draxler
                                      Griezmann-Schurrle

                                      Midfield: France
                                      Pogba-Ozil
                                      Sissoko-Kroos
                                      Matuidi-Schweinsteiger

                                      Defense: Germany
                                      Evra-Kimmich
                                      Umtiti-Boateng
                                      Koscielny-Mustafi
                                      Sagna-Hector

                                      Goalie- Germany
                                      Lloris-Neuer


                                      France are the more talented side playing at home. Germany just played a very tough match and that's what I expected when I capped France to win the Euros. 120 minutes is a lot from these players, and now they have to go play the French. The older guys will definitely feel it. I don't know I guess I could partially cash out, but France looked pretty convincing yesterday and were able to take the 2nd half very easy and not overexert themselves.

                                        Damn! Good stuff right here! Wish there was a way to start hedging right after France wins.

                                        Because we know Cubs are going to win!
