The $5200 is how much I have cashed out, after starting with 100 dollars. It would be around 8k but I lost A LOT on the Cowboys/Redskins MNF game.
All I bet is Money lines (well, 90% of the time). Often times I parlay a few together.
For instance, last weekend I had...
Georgia -360, Wisconsin -850, and Tulsa -570
* Bet 900 to win 610 *Also won on Air Force ML
On Sunday I had... Cowboys -320 and ravens -550
*Bet 1200 to win 660*
Yes you risk a lot, but it is easier to grow rather than going 42-39 against the spread. I spend a few hours visiting every team's message boards and scrolling through various predictions and injury reports before I place a bet.
*Tonight's Play*
Akron ML -175
I do not love this pick, but after going through the teams home boards, it seems like Akron should win the game say 27-17.
Akron still has something to play for, Buffalo does not. Akron has killed themselves with turnovers but the weather will finally be clear tonight. Akron should be able to score and they have a much better defense compared to Buffalo. Everyone on Akron's board predicts a win (average around 14 points), Buffalo's board is 50/50 with most "betting with their heart and not their head"(average around 2 points).
Am not betting the farm....

I am glad someone else posted this method as I use this all of the time and it works great. Everyone gets caught up in trying to predict the spread with what ever league or team they are capping. In my eyes they are basically taking away the advantage of taking the better team by giving the weaker opponent and head start (or spread).
I would rather make less money each time but feel confident about just simply picking the winner/loser.
Once you are able to parlay a few easy ML they rate of return increases rapidly.
Ive had the same "luck" over the last few weeks. Took $500 on 10/31 to $6400 last night.

Lost 350 Tuesday but Risked 1300 to win 300 last night on Bowling Green Moneyline so I am back to even for the week.
Lost my first bet in a while after posting on here so I will probably not post picks, yes I am superstitious haha.
But yes MoneyLine parlay is the way to go IMHO.
Picking three (13-19 point) favorites correctly to simply win often pays nearly -110. For some reason there is always one game (typically the last one) that is too close for comfort.
*I do not love any plays tonight, obviously only one double digit thread and I couldddddddd see Cal scoring enough to win.*
I only do ML on favorites I believe will win 95% of the time. I could see Cal winning 2/10 against this SC team.

Obviously bank roll management is important in all betting but even more so in this case because you would tend to bet a higher percentage of your bank roll because in your head you are convinced it has a higher chance at hitting. Also add the fact that the returns are smaller due to larger juice.
I almost always look at the daily lines from all sports I like for example NCAAF, NBA and NFL. out of those I pick the 2-5 best lines I think in my head have the best shot at winning (almost regardless of the Juice) and then parlay any combination of them together for pretty decent return.
I would not recommend this method for people that are using real money not disposable income as you could hit a bad streak and loose it all, but on the flip side I believe it to be one of the easiest ways to get on a pretty good win streak.
Another strategy I use is to pick my one winner of the day based on a spread ( basically your strongest play) and then parlay it with a couple of the "softball" money lines of the day just to get an little better return on it.

I've read a similar thread regarding this strategy and I like it. You said you started at $100, I have a similar starting bank roll how did you go about growing from that low amount? Did you risk using any parlays at that point or just straight ML favorites?
I assume it would be a parlay of 3 ML Favorites to grow from the $100?
Thanks for your insight and thread!

I don't think u can use this method and win long term.Just my opinion...I saw a guy use the same method then got drowned after a few upsets.. that's great u have had success and u would be foolish to go a diff direction than what u are doing.Enjoy your winnings.Best of Luck with continued success.I remember I played an NBA game and it was like -850 was up 2 Mavs shot a 3 and it literally went in the hole then went out saving me about 3k...think might play some ML favorite parlays

I don't think I would use this method with the NBA. So much variance. A team gets hot and they can take down anyone. Even the 76ers/Mavs game tonight (Mavs -14) I would be hesitant to use as a ML haha.
