Parlays are suckers bets //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

But you can get lucky sometimes. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

So no you arent going to win.

Really big parlays are sucker bets, not smaller ones.

I typically never go over a 5 teamer... Usually im sticking around 2-3 teams....But tonight I figure I would try out another 5 teamer like I did last night.

This year Im probably only up 100-200 or so but beats losing. I try not to get tooo invloved..

I don't think Maryland will be VA Tech by 9.

I would highly advise against betting all favorites as well.

This is a good read if you can get through it. I am sure Flip would get a kick out of it anyways.

Statistically speaking ALL parlays are bad bets. But you will occasionally win.

I havent lost a football/basketball season in a long time but I also spend retarded amounts of time researching. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

But its a good side job.

Yeah I know what your saying. I have read a couple of the statistical books...Im really not that much of a gambler like I used to be. I used to be biggg into texas holdem about 4 years ago when it really hit big....I havnt played at all in probably a year. I used to get off work and just play tournaments all day long and use that side money as part of an income but that shit can get rough.

I remember one time I usually went to this guys house at night on a side game. One night I didnt go and mofos with guns and shit raided the house. I dont remember what the reasoning why I didnt go that night but I remember it was something really stupid.

Could have saved my life.

Guess you really are lucky //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I do most of my gambling on the internet or in Vegas. I play lots of hold em as well. Its something to pass the time and I like you dont risk ridiculous amounts nor try and be a professional. But its a fun past time and extra money always helps.
