I ran some numbers on how many times each game that went UNDER the total was scoreless in the first inning.

I then calculated the $Won for the UNDER and the $Won for a parlay of the UNDER and the Scoreless 1st inning bet.

For every team, except the Orioles and Cardinals, you are better off using a parlay of the UNDER and the scoreless 1st inning bet than you are betting the UNDER straight.

There is definitely a correlation between the UNDER and the scoreless first inning.

HOWEVER, people are complaining that offshore books don't allow this, I don't use offshore books so I dont' care what they do. So, if you use an offshore book and you can't play this way then use this for informational purposes.

Here are the results:
(Column 1=Team, Column 2=# of games that went UNDER, Column 3=$ Won on UNDER using bet to win $100, Column 4=# of games that went UNDER and the scoreless in the 1st inning bet won - NO="Score in first inning?", Column 5=$ Won parlaying UNDER and scoreless risking $100, Column 6=$Advantage over betting the UNDER straight, NOTE** The advantage is higher % wise because I used betting to win $100 on the UNDER and betting to risk $100 on the parlay).

Team #U $Won #U+NO $Parlay W $ Advantage
Angels 36 $3,600 23 $5,428 $1,828
Astros 46 $4,600 21 $4,956 $356

I dont use offshore books so I can't help you with that.

I would think most would say its correlated.

Does BetUs allow parlays of a Team total under and the Game Under? That might really be pushing it.

I would agree that team total under and under are correlated.

But I think it is a stretch to say that scoreless first inning and UNDER are correlated. I dont' use offshore books so I don't really know what they do.

I just tried the UNDER and scoreless first on Bodog and it was no problem.

[billdo75]

Huh. I just tried it on Bodog and it wouldn't work:

There is a problem with your wager
MLB Team Props cannot be used in if bets, reverse bets or parlays.

I noticed while trying to place a parlay with 2 different 1st inning props the other day that the Parlay button doesn't light up. This time, I tried adding both to My Picks, then parlaying them from there. Bummer...

I didn't fund the account, i just set the bet up, it let me do that, obviously I did not hit the button to actually make the wager. So, I'll take your word for it.

[stats13]

so you have a local that takes 1st half score or not props? wtf?

if you aren't even making this bets and consider this informational, well, ok

I would also submit that nba 1st quarter unders parlayed with game unders, nfl, nhl, etc etc are "winners"

I don't know what a 1st half score or not is. I guess you meant 1st inning score or not.

I said I don't bet on online sports books. What I do or don't do with other betting outlets you are free to guess.

Never heard of a 1st quarter under.

After people started complaining that they can't make the parlay bet I was discussing I changed the post to say that the statistics indicate that the two bets are correlated and you should use that for informational purposes.

[stats13]

haha so under 1st inning is correlated to under for the game. wow. awesome info

seriously if you don't lol at how impotent this "knowledge" is, you are well... challenged

and the fact you don't know what a 1st quarter nba under is just screams all kinds of not knowing anything

why dont you go ahead and run the same sim on YES 1st inning score parlayed with over

Be nice stats.

If you go back and read curious' other posts he has put a ton of information out there to help fellow posters. And we know that he really meant well with this one also.

[therber2]

What is your normal strategy for score/scoreless props?

[Wilforth]

Curious,

Good 2 see u again.

[stats13]

Apologies for being a dick earlier- I was. I appreciate the effort that curious made, but what he said was basically obvious. It's kinda like saying the team thats winning at halftime usually wins the game. I understand an inning is only 1/9th of a game, not 1/3 or 1/4 or 1/2, but its still a good part and good judgement on the start of the game and how it'll go.

[Panekkkk]

While it may seem obvious to someone of your grandeur stats13, the point is that there is more money to be made if you parlay the two together rather than play simply the under straight. That actually is useful information.

[stats13]

find me one book on earth that allows you to parlay these
