    Parlays?
    I was thinking earlier, if you put in a 15 team parlay on any given team. And then you went back and did another parlay on 15 teams but 14 of them were the teams that were opposing the teams in your first parlay. That would be a ++++++++ EV play. Do books accept this? I'm kinda thinking they wouldn't accept something like this. What do you guys think?

    I think if you told a book you were going to do this they would give you a 500% deposit bonus.

      I knew it was too good to be true. LOL I didn't think it all the way through. However I do see some +Ev in 3 or 4 team parlays. The key is having all 3 "locks" and then the 1 iffy play both sides of it. I appreciate your help though....dick

        A freind of mine did this once. He took a 6 event parlay. And then made another parlay, with the exact opposite bets. Thinking he had all the bases covered, and couldn't lose.

        Needless to say he lost both parlay bets, and paid a dear price for a lesson in statistical probability (Or at least I hope he did)

            Haha calm down fellas, as soon as i thought about it i posted it on here. Less than 10 minutes later i had found the problem. I never knew so much math was involved in sports betting. I guess my teachers were right, I need those math skills.
