Unless I'm at your table.
      I for one dont bet parlays because they are sucker bets. I was asking because the odds are so different. That is how you learn. You dont find it interesting that the top books limit the payout at 300/1.

      I have been gambling for 31 years. When I was 16 the bookie at our golf club always had parlay cards and told me they dont even check any of them that had more than 3 teams on them because they were a waste of time. Hell this guy already admitted getting scammed for 18k and now he thinks he will get paid 102k for a 100 bet. You kids need to grow up.


      Your right I dont know crap about parlays and could care less because all they do is drain you losers bankroll.

              Poker you are wrong here buddy... The odds posted are fixed as Gan. said... When you actually go to place the parlay the books will usually give you the real odds... They can't give you the real odds in their table because they don't know what you are going to bet... it could be a game with -110 it could be -120 or even +105... These make big differences and I know you know this.... You're just trying to save face...

              I also quickly recalled that guy hitting that 9 teamer risking a little over 300 and winning a little over 104K and he got paid... This was not only Sportsbook.com or a sister site but also during that long delay...and he still got paid....

              I think the house has four of a kind on you Poker.. all aces..

              BTW earlier this year my friend with the credit books hit a couple of big ML parlays and he got paid... I think it was something like four teams all dogs ranging from +200 to +1000... I still think he is a net loser but that's beside the point...

                  Slow down. Parlays may not be your thing, but there's no reason to go throwing the kid under the bus because he came here to share one of his tougher losses to swallow.

                  And I also don't know why you keep insisting he would not have been paid, 5Dimes has its quirks but I've never heard of them ultimately stiffing someone because they "didn't feel like paying". Trust me they make enough off every losing parlay to not go stiffing people, that is why you play at an A book - for security.

                        Picking 9 out of 10 with the only loss by a half point is amazing as far as I am concerned...

                            Never heard of over 1000/1 on a 10 team parlay.

                            If anyone had those odds I doubt you would have been paid.
                            original post that everyone seems to forget.

                            1. may or may have not been real

                            2. so there is one book that gives those odds

                            3. you are still an idiot hoping to get paid 102k when risking 100. You yourself already being scammed for 18k.

                            And later on I admitted that I inputed the wrong numbers and said I was sorry but no one seems to have read that but keep bringing up the opposite.

                            Lets start a thread on people winning 10 team parlays for 100
                            k and collecting. We can even post an over and under on how many people have and collected.

                                Poker come on dude this is not tough... First off it's not just one book but most if not all books that allow you to win that much will give you those odds if THOSE specific teams and odds are imputed into the parlay...

                                Second off #2 is NOT the point here and you know it... You are simply trying to save face by resorting to someone being an idiot for playing parlays... He picked 9 out of 10 right can you do that..? I can't...

                                  I mean loosing a parlay by one game happens from time to time, but the way I lost this one. Its gonna hurt for alittle while mos def ......... my only loss minn +23.5 34 -10 michigan over minn, half a point, with a meaningless 85 yard touchdown run by the thrid string running back of michigan with roughly 6 min to play ..........
                                  What site did you place this on?Or was it in VEGAs?

                                      damn, were you able to sleep Saturday night Beatthejerk? You'll probably never ever come as close as that to hitting a 10 team parlay in your life again. The one consolation is that the Minn/Mich game was in the middle of the day...if that was the last leg of your parlay and lost it that way...i would have jumped out a window!

                                            BTJ: Tough loss but don't let it fester (unfortunately you lost Minn early and had no chance to offset your bet). A 100k is not life or death, so try to put it in perspective. My wife beat heart surgery in March (valve replacement to prevent her aorta from rupturing and then a brain tumor (non-cancerous ) in July--both of this year. That's my biggest parlay ever and thank God it hit!

                                            Poker: You're an idiot. Stick to playing cards with 12-year olds--where you might have an advantage.

                                                  BTJ: I can't judge anyone by just 10 picks, but 9-1 with a tough beat is impressive. Do you bet straight? If so, consider reduced juice places like BOL, MB and 5D (which you have already). You won't make 100k in one shot with straights, but over the years, you could carve out a nice profit with just say 55% winners.

                                                        You woulda had a hell of a week if you bet those plays individually along with your parlay... Damn, I thought that VT loss was hard to swallow, but this loss must give you nightmares... Maybe you should try those progressive parlays next time. GL

                                                          there are books that offer a weekly football $100,000 challenge.....13 team parlay....$25 bet to win 100,000 regardless of taking the dog or favorite so I think on a $100 bet 10 team parlay winning $100,000 is definitely real and losing this one by one point hurts big time...
