    correlation paranoia or not?

    I can't get a parlay in at 5D for tonight's football games, because every time I try to do so they find another correlation they can't swallow.

    They're refusing just about anything, like:
    - over/under bet
    - first turnover is an INT, yes or no.

    Another parlay, not accepted at 5Dimes:

    - more pts in 1H or 2H
    - Tomlinson scores a TD, yes or no

    Tony, if you're reading this

    Tony would laugh at you and tell you to bow down and praise the new Jesus, Tony.

    Yet you can parlay same game side with the total in each of the Monday night games--which were both significantly correlated.

    in baseball you can take a moneyline and total on the same game, but you can't take runline and total on the same game, if you want to bet who will score first and will there be a run in first , you can't parlay within the same game, it has been like that for a long time. But 5dimes lets you parlay anything under the sun , baseball with ufc with french soccer parlayed with australian football, but you can't within the same game

    5Dimes offers dozens of NFL game props. Some of them are correlated with full game wagers. Most are not. Rather than spend the time/effort to sort through them all and decide which ones to allow, 5Dimes just blocks them across the board. Seems like a reasonable way to handle the situation IMO.

    I'm not sure. It may well have been.

    If that's what they're doing, it's the easy way out and not very professional.

    Also keeps them from getting raped on soft lines from parlays made to circumvent limits.

    I wish I could get upset about not being able to parlay props in Vegas. That hasn't been an option for years.

    Don't some places offer prop parlay cards? Maybe just on Super Bowl?
