Parlay's

Lono · 02-12-2010, 12:59 PM

Hit a 6 teamer and 4 teamer last night. Unfortunately for me I didn't nut up more than $2 for the 6 teamer and $3 for the 4 teamer. Still a descent payday. What really p's me off is I almost went $10 on the six teamer. A matter of fact i had $10 on it and changed it before i submitted to $2, thinking I would use the other $8 on some other games. I lost the $8 i would have used. Anyone ever hit on a 10 teamer? I think I'm going $2 on one tonight.

basketball? shoot me the lines.

I'm at work atm so I can't get on any sites with lines.
Here are the games I'm thinking of going with. Teams bet on obviously will depend on lines.

Montana vs Portland State: I think I will go with Montana. PS played last night.
Northern Colorado vs Idaho State: Thinking of NC
WV vs Pitt: WV unless line is 6 1/2 plus for Pitt
Cornell vs Penn: Cornell
Yale vs Harvord: Harvord
Sienn vs Niagra: Sienna
Rider vs Fairfield: depends on spread
Manhattan vs Iona: Iona
Marist vs Canisuista: Can
Columbia vs Princeton: Princ

Any thoughts Mo?

K, will pick up another game or throw an over/under in for the 10th spot.

Hootie · 02-12-2010, 02:45 PM

well just so you know they don't pay even close to the odds on hitting parlays so it's really just a huge fish bet....

the odds of hitting a 6 teamer is just so low...but congrats on doing so...

hitting a 10 teamer is about as likely as getting struck by lightning

Lono · 02-12-2010, 02:47 PM

Maybe so, but I'm not betting big money. I'm just doing it for fun and the thrill. I got payed 48-1 last night for my 6 teamer.

I won a 20:1 5 team parlay when I was drunk as shit one night and turned $40 into $800...

I swept the first four afternoon games and all I needed was over 49 on the Pats/Skins in 2007...

the Pats were winning 49-0 late in the 4th (and a push equals a loss with the bookie these parlays went through) and of course the Pats rub it in with another Brady TD which won me the parlay...

Apparently that guy just makes a killing every week hosting those parlays through the bar...

That's the only time I ever won a parlay.

Hootie · 02-12-2010, 02:51 PM

and my college hoops guy loves Rider +1 tonight FYI

Lono · 02-12-2010, 02:53 PM

Yeah, not having a push on ties, is killer. I don't like those bets.

I can't make myself put that much on the line lol. Start with $150 at the beginning of the year and once its gone, I'm done.

Hootie · 02-12-2010, 02:56 PM

my roommate was the bartender at the bar that did these parlays so every Wednesday I'd go up there and we'd fill out a few parlays, get drunk, and put a couple bucks on each one.

For some reason we were super drunk that night and decided to each put down $20...

But usually we put $5 a piece on one or two parlays every week...

There were old guys in that place I'd talk to on Sundays that had been doing it for years and they had never won a single parlay.

If you want to be a bookie, there's your cash cow.

Lono · 02-12-2010, 02:56 PM

Aww man, you have a guy? My guy told me to go for UNLV the other night. I lost. lol

Hootie · 02-12-2010, 02:57 PM

yeah I follow him on twitter...

RickJsportsplays

he's been money on college bball games this year...

I bet on what he's betting...

I'm up 11 or 12 units with the guy and I only bet once or twice a week

Lono · 02-12-2010, 03:01 PM

I may have to check him out. Guess I need a twitter account for that?
