I'm jealous. I nearly went broke playing $2 open parlays trying to get one to 25. Well not nearly broke but it started to add up after a while. So I admitted defeat and kicked the habit.

But now you've got me wanting to have another go. Ya bastard!

only do parlays for SBR points. big parlays are sucker bets. takes many people too long to learn this less.

"damn i missed my 10-teamer by 1" "why is it always the last game" "'unreal, i almost had it" over and over. doesnt matter if youre a good capper- big parlays are for the birds.

its better than playing the lottery i guess but you shouldnt spend more than 5 dollars a week on wild parlays.

I hit a large parlay years ago. Then started doing $500 10 team parlays. Big mistake. No chaulk too. Boy was I a f--ing idiot.

Don't do parlays.

Have great moneyline parlays on teams that are supposed to win big as well.

I'll never understand why these Vegas sportsbooks (or online for that matter) don't encourage more parlays.
You can't parlay UFC at a bunch of books. You can't parlay tennis at some books. They won't let you parlay across sports at some books. They won't put out huge ML favorites to parlay. They don't even pay true odds when you parlay off the board on anything more than a 3 teamer.

Some books limit players who want to lay huge chalk. Guy is betting $50,000 to win $10,000 and the book says no. Just seems so dumb. Seems like books would love to take -500 bets all day.
I don't get it.

GL on your parlays

i doubt this is true. most cap it at 15. they think that is sufficient enough to f*ck people over but not bad enough to where they have to increase the already-"generous" odds even more.

Yet people keep repeating "parlays are sucker bets".

Despite them being the main thing the books appear to be afraid of.

Ganchrow doesn't say that though; http://forum.sbrforum.com/handicappe...1-parlays.html

Glitch · 10-01-11, 09:10 AM

lol what are you talking about optional.

LARGE parlays are sucker bets. if you are a good capper and get way more games right than you get wrong. of course a 2-teamer or a 3-teamer can be a prudent bet.

daneblazer · 10-01-11, 09:25 AM

Basically did the ole contra up up down down code picking these. If it hits I have an IPod tomorrow. If not I'm down 5 points. Let er roll!

As stupid as parlays are in theory, most of the money I've won has been from big $50-$100 6 teamers.

Just trying to justify playing them.

Question stands why the books seem so afraid of them if they are such an obvious losing proposition though...

It seems intuitive from the books treatment of them that over time enough players do win 'the lottery' to make them winners overall as a bet type.

slatter · 10-01-11, 10:03 AM

I was pretty sure 5Dimes capped it at 14 teams... am I crazy?

right but youre failing to distinguish between 2 teamers and 15-teamers here. they love when you 15-teamers. they would likely hate someone that picks -200 moneylines at 80% that put them in successful 2-teamers all the time (winning +125) each.

they love people throwing 10 bucks on a 15 teamer to win 7300

not crazy just incorrect unless theyve changed it very recently (which i doubt)

Do you have any evidence or facts to support a generalized statement?

Here, I can make one as well

Why do books seem so afraid of "guess which hand" bets?

Don't you agree that the books tend to restrict the larger ones more though?

I'm not arguing parlays are +EV btw. Just asking what seems like an obvious question to me. If they are such obvious losers, why do books try and discourage playing them by reducing odds in some situations?

What's the explanation for SBRbook's move if they are such sucker bets?

Glitch · 10-01-11, 12:10 PM

they dont. if you win a lot of money they limit you. not if you are a successful parlayer. they limit/ban you for chasing steam and betting really sharply on soft lines as far as betting styles are concerned. but any method you use to make a lot- a book can show you the door for that.

sucker bet is 6-teamers, 15-teamers, 8-teamers, even 4 teamers mosta the time.

nobody is talkin about 2-teamers buddy.

Glitch · 10-01-11, 12:12 PM

i hit a +170000ish 13-teamer on bookmaker not even 2 years ago and you know what i did- made a bunch more 13,15-team parlays and lost (most if not all of) them. they're so hard to hit that the book knows they'll get it back.

Rag Picker · 10-01-11, 12:53 PM

Just buy a lottery ticket.
