Double result bet

-packers 1/2 win and win.
- steelers same

If you parley both it's 30-1. I put on this and having no other bets . If the packers and steelers offences are rolling then it has a chance . I realize they are up against good defences but I have seen worse parley at 30-1. I just think this has a better chance then the odds suggest and I am putting a unit on it, cracking an beer and rooting for the exciting high flying offence underdogs.

Ok.  Where can you bet a correlated HT / FT parlay?

Don't be surprised if they cancel your bet, I don't know a book that would allow that.

OK - first of all - answer the correlated parlay question.  No legitimate book will let you bet that.  Maybe your corner local let YOU bet that, but nobody else can bet that.

There is no answer.

Either it is total BS, or this guy should quit his job and play every correlated parlay he can on every game there is.

Hell - if he can do this - he should bet both sides of every game on the board.  Packers AND Dallas.  Steelers AND Chiefs.  Along with every NBA and College Hoops game.

how would that work out?
He bet on 2 teams in different games to lead at the half and win the game?

I don't see why this is so far fetched, each double result is like a separate prop.  Supposing green bay double result pays +500 and pittsburgh double result pays +400, you parlay the 2 props and you get roughly 30 to 1 that way

the point is that no book ever lets you bet a first half winner and a game winner as a parlay as this op suggested he did. if a team is leading at half, great chance they will win game at end also so books don't let you bet them together.

second point is 4 games at -110 parlayed will be roughly 13 to 1. no way he got them for 30 to 1. This post is bs all the way around

Vanz,

Sometimes books make mistakes. I once had a book that allowed me to parlay NBA game results with series results (during the playoffs). By the end of every series, I was going to win money regardless of which team won. It was like I was in a dream:)

Vanzack, I thought you'd be smarter than this.  Green Bay to win the first half would be about +165, full game +220.  Pittsburgh to win 1st half would be +105 and full game +125.  If you parlayed these numbers, it be 38 to 1.  But I realize these are correlated.  Having said that 5 dimes for sure offers these double result bets, and even if parlaying 2 props wasn't allowed, the bettor could simply ride one game to the next since they start at different times.  It's not that easy to hit 2 double results both being dogs.  Especially since a tie at halftime would also lose.

Yes I've had it happen to me twice in live betting where the line was obviously a mistake and after the game I got paid.  Then the next day it was cancelled and they sent me a notice about it.  If you read the rule book they can cancel any bet for any reason.  

If they took that bet he's probably on a book that doesn't pay anyways

Dion  -

I thought you would be smarter than this.

First off - I never disputed the payoff - but thanks for the explanation.

If someone offers this double result as a bet - you definitely are not going to get the stated odds of the individual bets in a correlated prop bet.  No chance.  No way.

But thanks for trying.

He's parlaying two double-result bets, which 5 Dimes offers and allows you to do.  And GB ML was much better than -110 so why you bring that up is beyond me.
