    ML parlay home favs in college hoops and or NFL. -400 or greater, watch for 2nd half lines on favs that were trailing at half and ML parlay those.

    In theory a pair of heavy favs parlayed will bring the overall odds down to -200/-250 range.

    Statistically speaking you are assured to win one, and likely to win two (hence the juice), but you will be laying half the odds on your second leg which is value. In the halves situation often they need not even win the game to win the bet, you have essentially bought a favorite who can now lose the game and make you money...who doesnt like having the better team and not having to worry about winning? Of course if your first leg got wiped out it's over.

    These have no value in MLB or NHL where too much weird stuff happens.

    If all else fails dive into live betting.

    I got Green Bay +650 the other day vs Cleve. They opened as a TD fav. Can't tell me that's not value! It's Cleveland! You hit one or two of those in a week you'll be up no matter how bad your research is.

    Not a strategy really, but I start most days looking through the board and just throw some darts as leans and parlay them for 20 bucks. Mostly so it's easy to see the results of all early leans in one place really But I hit one around once per week too. Recently it's been what keeping me in the game without a reload.

    And I don't mean big chalk MLs. That's a waste of time. Genuine leans you are a decent chance to bet straight after capping the game properly.

    Yesterday hit Pats/Fins Under with Canucks/Jets Over and Ducks ML.

    $2-$5 parlays with every bet you place for the day is the way to go.. Eventually you will run the table and hit for big.. I usually can hit one of these below every other month if I remember to stick with it and do it every day..

    Better then playing the state lotto...

    If you stack only dogs on the ML's in parlays every day then you can really get paid.. I do that with MMA props with every UFC card.. I have hit for $1000's in years past off $5 prop parlays in MMA.. I didn't hit this year in MMA though ..

    For today I have this for example..

    $3.00 $497.02 Pending 7 Team Parlay
    Pending 12/12/17 7:05pm NBA Basketball 501 Atlanta Hawks +12 -110* vs Cleveland Cavaliers
    Pending 12/12/17 7:05pm NBA Basketball 505 Los Angeles Lakers +3 -110* vs New York Knicks
    Pending 12/12/17 9:35pm NBA Basketball 509 Philadelphia 76ers +5 -110* vs Minnesota Timberwolves
    Pending 12/12/17 9:35pm NBA Basketball 512 Dallas Mavericks +5˝ -110* vs San Antonio Spurs
    Pending 12/12/17 10:05pm NBA Basketball 513 Phoenix Suns +4 -110* vs Sacramento Kings
    Pending 12/12/17 7:05pm NHL Hockey 1 Los Angeles Kings (1st 60 min) -˝ +139* vs New Jersey Devils (1st 60 min)
    Pending 12/12/17 10:05pm NHL Hockey 18 Vegas Golden Knights -1˝ +175* vs Carolina Hurricanes

    Also with multi team parlays like I posted above they can be fun and profitable if you get down to the last play on that parlay, you can then either bet if the last game didn't start yet the other way or even live bet and arb out and still make money both ways..

    I've done that many times as I never like to get greedy on that last leg of the parlays when it's still in play..

    Parlays can absolutely be profitable if you know what you are doing and have a system like I do... It's a daily grind though and you gotta stick with it.. Don't get discouraged if you lose for a month straight..

    If you say so.. I'm a streaky gambler, these small parlays have paid off for me over time in the past. Been doing them for years and years now... If they didn't pay off in the end I wouldn't play them..

    If you are just a very average sports capper then I wouldn't recommend you ever playing parlays.. If you can pick em then you should try them..

    Your bookie is not gonna love me Harry and they gonna pay me if I sign on.....

    Have you guys heard of green stamps? When you save enough of 'em, you can order cool stuff--like baseball gloves and wheelbarrows--from a catalogue.

    Got it wrong, needed Calgary +1.5 to save #2 parlay selection.
    0-2 so far = -20
