Bored as shit, so decided to figure out my record. 30-101-1. Some of those wins involve one or more of the bets placed ending up in a push, so not too sure if those really count as a win. Either way, the record kinda stinks (which a 9 and 8 parlay losing streak maybe kinda had something to do with that).

If you want my opinion stop playing parlays.Your edge when you play 3+ games and you expect to win them all is negative.If i had your starting bankroll i would have bet 10-15$ per game and only in the games i feel confident

I know parlays are not the best idea in the world (my record proves that, haha), but this gives me something to do for a hobby longer than playing a few games at 10% of bankroll would be considering I am about as sharp as a padded watermelon with my plays. 

Do appreciate the insight, though  

First tonight:
Brown/Columbia Under 125
Yale/Cornell Under 135

.86 to win 2.27

it's true that lion_kingg said, but not necessarily in all cases  (but 97,3% of cases yes).

years ago i tried to figure out correct result based parlay system: you pick 12-15 matches with low scoring expectation and choose a one score /match. Then parlay games in pair system = a,b,c,d,e... a x b, a x c, a x d and so on. If you have 10 matches you will have 45 bets. Average odd is 7 x 7½ = 52½.

If you can keep your average rate to 1.6 correct scores from 10 you would be cashing out nicely.

This was years ago but numbers should be about correct. i played that system to one booker and after a few months they changed their system to max 6 matches... very few booker offer correct score parlays.

Snafu, is what you would do basically a round robin parlay with correct scores being used as the picks?

Blonde  First goal at  the 6 minute mark in Cyprus. 

I love keeping track of this thread. I do similar things when I parlay as well. VERY small amounts so I can actually enjoy a handful of games instead of sweating over each and ebvery one to come out on top for the day.

You're showing a consistent increase in profit, which is great. Just another piece of evidence that money management works if you can do simple mathematics.
