Dsethi always did well with them. I almost hit a nice one a cpl weeks ago, 3/4, the saturday MSU lost, before the superbowl. 800/2400 or something, i actually posted the ticket on here, just too lazy to look for it right now, watchin a lot of NBA, I have a lot in play tonight. I think there's definite value though, especially in NCAA Hoops. Money management would be what you'd have to figure out, if you can hit 2 or 3 teamers constantly, it might be better if you laid off straight picks of those games too, a winning night would be great, but a losing night would be horrible.

Dsethi taught me how to bet them.. There is HUGE VALUE with them sir.

I don't like them too much in the NBA for a couple of reasons, NBA players are spolied f@gs and there seems to be no sense of urgency in the first half of the season.. Home court is not as important..

Many college teams have superior track records at home within the last three years many of them have records like 37-5 or such. I think recognizing what teams are stellar at home and what teams are capable on the road is one of the keys to success with ML parlays..

I have started them since seeing Westside Pete, IMGV, and Dsethi do pretty good with them.

I love ML's. I like capping contest winners more than margin of victory. Lots of value with + ML's.

I am on AR +400 tonight and it is still in reach but rough. Both clubs are playing SUPER SLOPPY.

I agree, it's definitely more of a gamble to wager on spreads IMO especially with basketball and all the possessions.. How many times have we seen a team playing neck to neck all game only to lose by a 1/2pt more than the spread.

Good example was Notre Dame +5.5, losing by 6 even though the game was tied late.

Thanks imgv94. I'll check him out. I always thought that SBR had the best cappers but if dsethi is good I might switch to RX eventhough the cappers here are second to none.

Why not check both of them out..

I agree SBR's group of posters and cappers are second to none..


BTW about Dsethi, his ML Parlay style is different but it works, don't be scared off the higher juice.

Man, I have had a terrible night so far in college hoops. Rhode Island blew it, and the others just didn't seem to be in it today. Only have Texas Tech and San Diego State ML's left. Hopefully they can salvage a terrible night.

NBA, well I have the Suns and Wizards ML's. Lets see how they do.

NHL was good to me, with the Canadiens coming back and winning the game in OT for me.
