yea get out while your up is the best move ill be doing the same but not anytime soon


I've noticed my 126 GBP bet that I've added on top of the 500 GBP bet was on a "Fantasy" match between Chicago and Memphis!!

So it's under 183.5 between Memphis and Chicago - meaning I need Memphis to score less than 114 - how safe is that???

Darn, I can't believe I haven't even noticed the type of bet I placed with those 126 GBP bet!!

Thanks anyway, please go in that route as well !!! It would only do you good.

Playing open parlays is a mistake.  It makes no sense when you can just increase your bets for more money, and don't fall into the hedging trap if you're winning.  So why do you need to fix it?

Think it's I just play them too large team wise and try to cash them in a day or two.

I've seen weird mixed games around the Superbowl.  They'll mix and match football props with some NBA props.  But a "fantasy" match between two NBA teams is a new one to me.
Must be one hell of a book if they post stuff like that.  I want to sign up

Yeah around Super Bowl I've seen them. Sometimes I'll play them for action. But never this time of year. I don't want any part of that book.

pig.  . .. just so I have it straight. . .an open parlay-you pick 1 or 2 games (in your case) and wait to fill another game to increase the parlay?

if I have that right. . .then you need to realize that all a parlay is-is 'letting it ride' on the next game.  no need to do parlays unless you want to with games going at the same time or you aren't able to make it to a betting spot to pick a second game that you want to.  hopefully I have this wrong and you're one step ahead of me

Let's go Rox!!    
If they don't score it by the top 8th I'll be rooting for Snakes to score one.  A tie keeps us going!

Gotta hit the bed soon though.  Might not be around to see the finish...

satchmo...first my parlays arent big...$10 to $20 max..they are fun plays for me.. say, i want to make a 3 team parlay, because $10 on 2 plays isnt going to win much..so lets say i open a parlay for $10 and i cant find a 3rd play i like...i put the 2 i like in it and leave the last to fill at a later date, supposing the first 2 win...did i explain anything??..

You've got it right.
He put himself in a bad position because he would have the winnings already if he'd just played the two games.  Instead he has to throw it all on a 3rd game (and pray) or waste money hedging....

You explained it, but if you collected on the two team parlay you could still throw all of it on the 3rd game if you wanted a big payout, or have the money and not have to wait weeks for the "right" pick.  You're guaranteed to make at least as much without being forced to risk everything.
And it probably doesn't apply for three games, but if you play with 4+ teams you often lose money due to the parlay odds.
