    How do you do a parlay at 5dimes where you add games at a later date?

    I want to do a 25 team parlay and hurt them bad

    Hi Emily,

    Go into the normal parlay menu, select the legs you want to bet and then select the # of Open Spots you want.

    just go to parlay and start picking the games u want for today, and hit enter as you usually would...then when u would enter the amount on the wager, u will see below it will say OPEN spots....if u bet just 1 game today u would need 24 open spots...

    if u have any trouble just ask or PM, but its fairly easy after u do it 1 time

    I don't have this option.

    Wonder if they block certain accounts from these

    Not sure about the "very profitable" part, open parlay is pretty much like regular parlay, but the only difference is that you can fill in your picks later on. The payout is same for a regular 25 teams parlay and a open 25 teams parlay. Also, by doing parlays at 5dimes, you can't take advantage of their reduced juice lines.

    take a fixed amount say $100. Bet single games compounding with winnings on reduced juice and you will get better odds.

    That is not what I meant.

    What I mean is take the amount you are going to parlay. Say $10 for example.

    make your first bet. Say ML -200. $10 to win 5. If you win you now have $15.

    Then take that 15 and make another bet and keep doing that until you lose or hit the parlay that you would have made in the first place for $10.
