    [COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.72)]Specifically on FanDuel, some bettors noticed that by using a single game parlay they could combine alternate spreads of Raiders +0.5 and Chargers +0.5 for odds of +22348 (bet $100 to win $22,348) before adding on a Jaguars moneyline victory at +730. The result was a three-leg parlay with +186223 odds.[/COLOR]

    A lot of the US book based managers are weak. Justin 7 could be exploiding them with the strategies presented in his bestseller.

    early on in college football you could do college football total pleasers that were at very profitable expected value for bettors.

    unfortunately they corrected it a few weeks into the season

    I guess for people that have the time to tinker around with finding correlated things to parlay on different events, you might find some stuff like parlaying two teams in the same game at alt lines. Can't imagine even have wasted the 30 secs it took to try it.

    It’s a really small town. Cool to visit if you like wine or bbq.

    The Salt Lick is really good bbq. It will be crowded.
