    What does it boil down to?

    I am still very new to the game. What is the best way to go about things? Making the right picks is difficult enough, let alone doing it consistently. One will want to maximize the return in making streaks of correct picks, right? So is it best to put the extra into open parlays at 5Dimes and just keep trying to streak? I was thinking about having team specific parlays, Yankees, Red Sox, etc. and just try and stay hot game for game.

    Do most people here favor parlay plays? Opinion is very mixed, but the witty ones seem to favor them from what I have read. Low wagers on parlays seem like a must every time. Anyone agree? My betting habits consist of high volume, low risk. I will put more on a game 7 if I have a hunch.
