Make that money aireent777!!! At least you seem to understand that teams win and lose, cover and don't cover and that there is a risk in gambling. A certain bob696969 is having trouble handling the news.
GOOD LUCK!!!

Lol, you are cracking me up now.... I am NOT disagreeing with your picks.
all I was saying in this previsous thread (https://www.covers.com/postingforum/post01/showmessage.aspx?spt=22&sub=100738763) was that your strategy of making opposing picks in 2 different parlays is faulty and you are costing yourself money.
Your proposal is to do both of these 4 team parlays:
1) celtics -310 X Mavs -260 X Lakers -310 X Lakers UNDER -110 = risk $100 to win $352
2) celtics -310 X Mavs -260 X Lakers -310 X Lakers OVER -110 = risk $100 to win $352
Now there are 2 results that are possible:
Result #1: win 1 parlay and lose 1 parlay, and your total profit is +$252.
Result #2: lose both parlays, and your net loses are -$200.
Therefore, you are risking $200 to win $252, a payout ratio of 1.26.
My proposal is:
Just do a 3 team parlay:
celtics -310 X Mavs -260 X Lakers -310 = risk $100 to win $136
You lose $100 or you win $136, giving you a payout ratio of 1.36. (so you can bet $200 to win $272)
I can't lay it out anymore clear than that!
If anyone on this forum risks real money without doing a calculator check, that's their problem. I can be right and I can be wrong. So you are not looking out for anyone. And you don't know whether I'm set in my ways or not. You just want to do one thing: PROVE YOU ARE RIGHT AND LET EVERYBODY KNOW IT. anonymously, of course, in the ether of cyber space where you can put on your little tin foil hat and your too small t-shirt with the big "S" on it and wave your play sword around.
When you can get to a pleasant exchange of ideas ....ferget it. I don't want communicate with you anymore. period.

the feeling is mutual. I will now go play with my tin foil sword and my too small superman shirt.
