    Spurs ML
    Hawks ML

    0% confidence betting this? Why, what problems do you see with it?

    The main problem people would see with it is just the simple fact that you need 5 things to happen in your favor, all at once..Sure they are favorites, but there's obv risk involved always, especially when you have 5 teams.

    Take out Hornets and put in Philly - Magic are without Howard, Davis, and Turk. Orlando doesn't need this game while Philly needs it badly + are the better team.

    I took out the Hornets and put in Atlanta. Would you go with Philly over Atlanta too?

    So you'd take out New Orleans, and add them both then.

    Too many favorites there. Go with 2 dogs. That parlay is a huge risk and pays out too little.

    Personally, the one that I am most worried about is the Nationals game. They ****** me yesterday and were the only loss in a 6 team parlay I had so I am going to lay off of them for a while. Houston is too sneaky and Strasburg doesn't have a pitch history against them.

    Analyze each one seperately and ask yourself if you would bet each team by itself.

    Maybe I'm just stupid, but these games all involve pretty heavy favorites. I don't think it's THAT risky. I know the NBA is super unpredictable, but there were some big upsets in the NBA over the weekend, I think we're due for a night without any big upsets. I am starting to feel a little weird about the Nationals game, but the Strasburg vs. Weiland matchup seems too good to ignore. Hopefully I'm right.

    Raptors+6 over Hawks ML.

    Much better payout and just as safe as Hawks ML.

    Parlays can be frustrating but if it hits, it's like winning a mini lotto.

    To be honest that parlay was horrible. It pays out 2 to 1 which is not much for the amount of teams in there.

    Just picking two spread at -110 odds would get you +260 odds.

    Go with a 3 teams next time and trust your own judgement. Orlando is still a good team even with Howard out, the Sixers suck! Had you gone with 2 three team parlays, one or both would have hit, rather than trying to get a hit with 5 teams, which is extremely difficult to do.

    Really? Philly is terrible. Philly will blow the final playoff spot.
