    Wednesday: Parlay (-122)

    Cubs Game 1 (Lilly) / NCAAF Hawaii +11

    Bought points on Hawaii for the parlay. The Greek allows this type of parlay wager for those who are wondering.

    Updated above my play and the line on today's parlay. Cubs posted up cheaper than I planned for, which allowed me to buy Hawaii to +11 and still keep the play overall at -122.

    machine you bought 10 points on a ncaa football game? the price for the game has to be like -500. and you bought through the zero?

    seriously, you like pitt +3 -500?

    no offense, but this play has huge -ev.

    why not just parlay pitt on the ml? (-270)

    Machine, I always love your picks. You're on fire with the parlays the last few weeks. But with this parlay, isn't Middle Tenn St at +7 right now? How did you buy 7.5 points? That's got to be some huge juice?

    He takes risks like this..that is why he does not mention he is down again... Had a parlay with massive favorites 1100 to win 300 that lost...he just started a new thread again after the first week of football season.

    i think the line was 6.5 and he bought 8 points. buying the extra touchdown isn't necessarily a bad bet, just depends on the price you have to pay.

    twins were -165 when he posted.

    -165 = 1.606
    -103 = 1.97
    1.606(x)=1.97
    x = 1.227 = -440

    so the question is, is middle tenn st +14.5 at -440 worth it?

    if i liked middle tenn st, i'd rather take my chances on +7 -110, but maybe that's just me.

    paying -400 for a bet that's only worth -300 will lose you money in the long run.

    but to each his own.

    good luck machine.

    The parlay of Minny -165 and Middle Tenn +14.5 is a -103 bet, which is less juice than a typical side play. I'll take that anyday.

    I have an NFL thread and an NCAA thread. The 7-team ML parlay is still listed in my NCAA thread for anyone to see. I would make that bet again with a healthy Sam Bradford.

    Machine, I'm just saying that's a lot of juice to buy and still call it a true "Parlay". In terms of odds it's really just a straight wager.

    I guess it depends on what you're willing to pay. I really liked this play and so I paid for it.

    For what it's worth (which is nothing, since I'm not playing it) I also think MTSU +7 is a great play and MTSU ML is a good value play.

    I think MTSU +14.5 is a lock, so I parlayed it with another play (Twins) that I would normally just play as a sides play. But since I didn't want to pay -165 for the Twins, now all I'm paying is -103. I love this.
