BigBurk's Parlay Corner

[BigBurk]

Great minds think alike mate!!!

[BigBurk]

That Gala goalie has to be glad Carrick went on, otherwise he had an early trip to the showers.

[ColdBeerHere]

Since we're expanding outside of Europe, here's a couple from Concacaf and MLS:

3-teamer (+666, hope you're not religious!)

Los Angeles (CONCACAF-CL)/Puerto Rico Islanders (CONCACAF-CL) Over 2½ -117
Santos Laguna (CONCACAF-CL)/Aguila (CONCACAF-CL) Over 2½ -132
Seattle (CONCACAF-CL) +135*vs CD Marathon (CONCACAF-CL)

Also took Seattle (+131) and LA (-½ -132) to win, and over 2½ in the Santos game. Think all 3 away teams win, their opponents aren't very good.

2-teamer (+108)

Columbus (USA-MLS) -209* vs US Chivas (USA-MLS)
San Jose Earthquakes (USA-MLS) -244

Also got the over in all 3 MLS games tonight; league's been an over machine more often than not. Still have today's UCL games to look at, full day today. Break the bank boys! And don't let me down Bayern.

I'm with ya on these, and I was on Celtic yesterday

[BigBurk]

Well, it's looking good for #30 and #33 at HT! #34 might have some trouble with the over 2½ plays on Man Utd/Gala and Shakhtar/Nordsj.

[BigBurk]

Nani is one of the biggest losers around. One, why does he take the pk and not Van Persie?! Two, just pick a damn corner and go for it!

Self proclaimed second best winger of the world.. Ha ha.

[BigBurk]

Man Utd still struggling.. Should have hit that pk and be done with it! Hope they manage to hold on.

[latinrus]

WT is wrong with the overs today!

I was expecting goals in Shakhtar, bayern and Man U but no

[BigBurk]

Yeah I now know why I rarely play them!!

Galatasary screwed by the ref today, multiple times. I am not complaining though!

[BigBurk]

Might run a few 2 or 3 teamers from this list; good luck today Burk!

Last one:

3-teamer (+280)

Borussia Dortmund (UCL) -259* vs Ajax (UCL)
Schalke 04 (UCL)/Olympiakos (UCL) Over 2 -156
Manchester City (UCL)/Real Madrid (UCL) Over 2½ -149



I lied, one more:

3-teamer (+234)

Borussia Dortmund (UCL) -259* vs Ajax (UCL)
Manchester City (UCL)/Real Madrid (UCL) Over 2½ -149
Bayern Munchen (UCL) -226* vs Valencia (UCL) Pending

Gonna be a good day or a bad day! Either way gonna be fun. Cheers.

One Champions League for today:

5-teamer (+433)

Sporting Braga (UCL) -215* vs FC Cluj (UCL)
Juventus (UCL)/Chelsea (UCL) Over 2 -161
Manchester Utd (UCL) -324* vs Galatasaray (UCL)
Bayern Munchen (UCL) -255* vs Valencia (UCL)
Shakhtar Donetsk (UCL) -432* vs Nordsjaelland (UCL)

Lotta chalk, but sometimes it is what it is. Might have one more later once 5Dimes posts team totals (over ½'s make nice parlay material, long as you pick right!). Good luck today everyone.

Made me sweat a little, but Bayern comes through to finish off the early parlays, on the other hand I knew I should have left the Braga/Cluj game alone. Trying to get a little extra value cost me. As they say, 50% of something is better than 100% of nothing! Chelsea conceded late for a push (f*kers) along with Celtic, no harm no foul. Nothing to say about Man U, didn't watch much of that match. All in all, a good day, can be even better with Concacaf/MLS games tonight. Hope everyone cashed some tickets!

[turtlejc]

Took your giants cardinals and added Yankees, 1 unit for 2

[ColdBeerHere]

come on columbus.......just need one !!

[dk70]

columbus gets one in the 89th minute

[ColdBeerHere]

Niiiiiiccccce

[ColdBeerHere]

I really hate frikkin Portland...Second time in a couple of weeks they have screwed me...Looks like they were the last game I needed to win 9 units...now nothing...Bastards !

[BigBurk]

Yupp.. This one is over! Did not think SJ would be the one messing up the parlay!!

[TC Woods]

Yupp.. This one is over! Did not think SJ would be the one messing up the parlay!!

yup, killed a huge one for me

[JT OZ]

yup, killed a huge one for me

There's a lot of us on that boat right now.

[BigBurk]

If they had just stapped on the gas in the 1H, instead of doing so when they are down 0-2...

Well, on to an Europa League night to take back the SJ loss!

[BigBurk]

# 31 - 4 team parlay:

St. Louis Cardinals -245* vs Houston Astros (L Harrell - R must Start L Lynn - R must Start)
San Francisco Giants -247* vs Colorado Rockies (T Chatwood - R must Start M Cain - R must Start)

YTD = 13-10-0 (56.5%) +23,90x

[BigBurk]

Need your guys thoughts on tonights EL games of Levante (vs. Helsingborg) and Napoli (vs. AIK).

I locked both in yesterday (in two separate parlays) before the news came out that the Napoli and Levante coaches plan on resting some players. Even though, the line has not dropped on them.

Don't know if I should go on and play both parlays, or hedge out and make one or two new parlays..

[EasyPicks]

you should hedge

[BigBurk]

I just read, on this forum, that Atletico Madrid is also resting their key players. Vaughany on the other hand had read somewhere that they dó take this seriously. Hmm...

Hedging may probably be best indeed, EP.

[BigBurk]

How the f uck do you hedge a two or three team parlay though! lol.. Might lose the original and hedge bet!

[swordsandtequila]

Since we're expanding outside of Europe, here's a couple from Concacaf and MLS:

3-teamer (+666, hope you're not religious!)

Los Angeles (CONCACAF-CL)/Puerto Rico Islanders (CONCACAF-CL) Over 2½ -117
Santos Laguna (CONCACAF-CL)/Aguila (CONCACAF-CL) Over 2½ -132
Seattle (CONCACAF-CL) +135*vs CD Marathon (CONCACAF-CL)

Also took Seattle (+131) and LA (-½ -132) to win, and over 2½ in the Santos game. Think all 3 away teams win, their opponents aren't very good.

2-teamer (+108)

Columbus (USA-MLS) -209* vs US Chivas (USA-MLS)
San Jose Earthquakes (USA-MLS) -244

Also got the over in all 3 MLS games tonight; league's been an over machine more often than not. Still have today's UCL games to look at, full day today. Break the bank boys! And don't let me down Bayern.

Not a very good night in Concacaf or MLS; Portland hadn't won an away game all year, nice time to show up. At least San Jose showed some heart, unlike L.A., who put on a pitiful performance. No effort, acted like they didn't want to be there. If the f*kin' teams aren't going to try they shouldn't be participating. Hope nobody took too hard a hit. Moving on.

[BigBurk]

If people have some good tips how to hedge a parlay... very welcome!!

[swordsandtequila]

How many games make up the parlays? If three or more, maybe new parlays minus Levante/Napoli? Depends on how strong you feel about the other matches. Or a new parlay with the remaining teams. I'd probably find a game/games I felt strong about and double down, or just let it ride. You haven't lost yet

[BigBurk]

I'm just gonna let them ride.. But will not count them as official plays.

FYI, these are the plays:

Atletico Madrid (UEFA-Europa)/Hapoel Tel Aviv (UEFA-Europa) Over 2½ -115*
Levante (UEFA-Europa) -250* vs Helsingborg (UEFA-Europa)

Napoli (UEFA-Europa) -276* vs AIK Stockholm (UEFA-Europa)
Athletic Bilbao (UEFA-Europa) -384* vs Hapoel Kiryat Shmona (UEFA-Europa)
Hannover (UEFA-Europa)/Twente (UEFA-Europa) Over 2½ -128*

[swordsandtequila]

Probably a good idea, odds are still in your favor.

2-teamer (+211)

Viktoria Plzen (UEFA-Europa) -½ -144*vs Academica (UEFA-Europa)
PSV Eindhoven (UEFA-Europa)/Dnipro Dnjepropetrovsk (UEFA-Europa) Over 2½ -120

Will make a 3-teamer with Twente/Hannover over once 5Ds posts totals, don't know why it's not up for parlays yet. Good luck today Burk, hope you hit!!

[BigBurk]

Yeah thanks man! I'm not really positive about that so just gonna stick to these sucker plays! haha..

May play a MLB parlay though!

[EasyPicks]

you could hedge using Betfair. (Laying the selection or taking a shot and just dutching)

yesterday I was on the break of getting paid 320€ for my 6 team Parlay (and only Barça HT/FT fked me up as you know) on a 20€ bet. What I did was betting Barça/Sparta draw at HT before and just after the Barça goal and got odds between 3.25 and 10.00. I tooked a small risk of not hedging the final result and the possibility of Sparta being in the lead at HT.....but it paid out a 53€ profit. Not 320€ but still better than -20€

[BigBurk]

Yeah you are totally right! 5dimes doesn't allow live betting though, and they are the only bookie I use lately!! Gotta swallow this pill tonight and hope I don't choke.

If I had the live betting options those outside the US have I wouldn't get a damn thing done! And nice save.

But then you could still lose -40 euro as well if luck go against you, it all about money management, that is why you guys will never see me go more than one unit in my thread...

Anyway, I enjoy reading both you guys thread...

[BigBurk]

You flat out bet 1 unit every time?

Even if you like a game thát much more than another? Or do you play a small selection of games?
