    Soccer/Football betting

    Hello!

    I'm very green to the online betting scene, so I haven't done very well on my early 7 to 13 team parlays.

    I'm trying to find a way to neutralize the hurt that I'm feeling from picking teams to win, then watching one my favorites draw a match vs cannon fodder.. If I'm unsure about a favorite, but pretty sure that their opposition sucks, should I just play the over/under on the opposition team instead of picking the favorite to win??

    Thanks, Soul!

    Would love to get it past Newcastle on friday to have a chance. Swans are soooooo good at home though.

    And you will never ever have success playing 7-13 teams parlays. Not a chance to be winning player with this. Sorry.

    good luck with the 10 teamer, personally wouldnt put more than 3-4 games from a single league in a parlay, its very hard to get half the results of a match week right.

    You're right. I'm regretting putting so many PL teams in the mix. Going to be unlikely that one doesn't draw and that's IF I survive Newcastle/Swansea. Won't make this mistake again.

    picking favs is hard, picking o/u in a game with a heavy fav is hard too, really no difference, its the one you expect the least bombing on you

    Just play straight bets and then throw in a few small parlays for fun.

    Does your book include extra time? Game was tied in regulation, Perth won in extra time.

    I use 5dimes, so I'm not sure. That's a pretty dreadful technicality if that's the case though, since there is no mentioned of this

    Another draw kills off another Parlay... I have not picked a game that's lost in a long, long time. Every Parlay I pick has at least 1-3 draws in them though.

    There has to be a way to protect against drawing?? Should I start hedging my Parlays- if that's the right term.

    Can anyone tell me if I have a legitimate argument with 5DIMES. Below is my Parlay:

    Amount Paid Status Wager
    4/6/12 11:54pm $0.00 Loss 10 Team Parlay
    Win 4/7/12 4:10pm Argentina Soccer 355 Boca Juniors (ARG) -140* vs Argentinos Juniors (ARG)
    Loss 4/7/12 5:30am Australia Soccer 972 Perth Glory (AUS-A) -½ -115* vs Wellington Phoenix (AUS-A)
    Win 4/7/12 5:30pm Brazil Soccer 1265 Sao Paulo (BRA-P) -226* vs Mogi Mirim (BRA-P)
    Win 4/7/12 5:15pm Chile Soccer 1391 OHiggins (CHI) -190* vs San Felipe (CHI)
    Win 4/7/12 10:00am England Soccer 4 Fulham (ENG-P) pk +103* vs Bolton (ENG-P)
    Win 4/7/12 10:00am England Soccer 520 Birmingham (ENG-Cham) -185* vs Crystal Palace (ENG-Cham)
    Win 4/7/12 10:00am England Soccer 641 Fleetwood Town (ENG-Conf) +112* vs York City (ENG-Conf)
    Pending 4/7/12 8:00pm Mexico Soccer 405 Santos Laguna (MEX) -279* vs Estudiantes Tecos (MEX)
    Win 4/7/12 7:30am Poland Soccer 2052 Legia Warsaw (POL-E) -½ -101* vs Ruch Chorzow (POL-E)
    Win 4/7/12 10:00am Scotland Soccer 2303 Hearts (SCO-P) -½ -128* vs Dunfermline (SCO-P)


    Assuming Santos wins, my only Loss is a game that Perth Glory actually won. This could be at least considered as a "close call" Parlay, surely? Is 5Dimes really not obligated to give me anything for a match that only required me to pick the winner of the game?

    Sorry to tell you this, but you don't have a case. From 5Dimes site, Rules for Sports Wagering, Soccer:

    Full game soccer wagers are official on the result at full time (90 minutes of play + referee stoppage time) unless otherwise specified. Overtime and shoot-outs do not count unless the wagering option "OUTRIGHT" or "ADVANCES" is listed.


    Link: http://www.5dimes.eu/sb_rules.html#soccer

    This is normal for most books (to my knowledge). The winning goal was scored in the 113th minute (extra time). You chose Perth to win in regulation (includes any stoppage time for injuries, etc.). It's unfortunate, but it happens. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.



    (I'm assuming you understand the difference between stoppage and extra time, no intent at condescension)

    Been awhile since my last Parlay, so I have to pick one for today. Just looked at the remaining fixtures on 5dimes, and they're DREADFUL outside of Serie A-- low scoring league that can't be trusted imo.

    PSG is killing it though!!

    0-0 Draw. Tough luck for Greuther on the road vs the 2nd-place team in the league. Hoped that they would pull out a sneaky win, another Parlay dusted.

    Oulu, my Jordan "slam dunk" pick of the day lost. Few Parlays decimated after that loss since they were connected to Oulu. Turkish and Finnish leagues are off from now on.

    New parlay:

    4/12/12 8:00pm Argentina Soccer 101 Atletico Rafaela (ARG-Copa) +131* vs Athletico Tucuman (ARG-Copa)
    Pending 4/13/12 7:10pm Argentina Soccer 122 Estudiantes LP (ARG) -113* vs Colon (ARG)
    Pending 4/12/12 2:30pm Belgium Soccer 301 FC Brugge (BEL) +285* vs Standard Liege (BEL)
    Pending 4/14/12 7:45am England Soccer 11 Manchester City (ENG-P) -190* vs Norwich City (ENG-P)
    Pending 4/12/12 2:45pm Italy Soccer 11002 Bologna / Cagliari not draw -188* vs Bologna / Cagliari draw
    Pending 4/12/12 6:30pm South America Soccer 201 Lanus (Copa-Liber) +1 -129* vs Flamengo (Copa-Liber)
    Pending 4/12/12 6:30pm South America Soccer 204 Emelec (Copa-Liber) +1 -136* vs Club Olimpia (Copa-Liber)

    Pending 4/12/12 4:00pm Spain Soccer 38 FC Sevilla (ESP-P) -221* vs Zaragoza (ES


    I'm playing the "not Draw" for the Italian game just because of the many different ways that I COULD win this bet--compared to the single way of losing it.

    I've also 'hedged' the FC Brugge match.

    Would have LOVED to see FC Brugge win that one, but at least they leveled at the death. Glad I played the draw also.

    The good news: I covered the Atletico Rafaela bet by picking them to "draw" in a Parlay exactly like the one above...The bad news: LANUS loses 3-0 with an insane +1 spread! Did not see that Flamengo beat down coming.

    This Parlay, and others like it, done & dusted:
    Loss 7 Team Parlay
    Win 4/12/12 9:00pm Argentina Soccer 101 Draw (Atletico Rafaela (ARG-Copa) vs Athletico Tucuman (ARG-Copa)) +218* vs Atletico Rafaela (ARG-Copa)
    Loss 4/12/12 6:30pm South America Soccer 201 Lanus (Copa-Liber) +1 -110* vs Flamengo (Copa-Liber)
    Win 4/12/12 6:30pm South America Soccer 204 Emelec (Copa-Liber) +1 -126* vs Club Olimpia (Copa-Liber)
    Win 4/12/12 8:50pm South America Soccer 207 Vasco de Gama (Copa-Liber) pk -124* vs Nacional Montevideo (Copa-Liber)
    Win 4/12/12 8:50pm South America Soccer 210 Libertad (Copa-Liber) +111* vs Alianza Lima (Copa-Liber)


    The odds makers can really be amazing sometimes. I'm just in awe of the skill it takes to bait some of these matches.

    For example:

    4/13/12 3:00pm Rep Ireland Soccer 1958 Wexford Youths (IRE-1) +534* vs Limerick (IRE-1)

    Yes, Limerick are good. Yeah, Limerick did win 6-0 at home last time they played Wexford Youth. However, How can you possibly not take Wexford Youth AT home WITH those odds???
