Anybody ever try taking $100 and roll it over on 3 staight, 3 team parlays?

[DollarDay]

OK - I'm on the bandwagon but I'm starting at $10.00 instead of $100.00 - will have to do one more parlay so instead of 3, will need 4 of em.

48356028-1 3/30/10 1:00pm $10.00 $63.80 Pending 3 Team Parlay
Pending 3/30/10 1:05pm MLB Baseball 903 Philadelphia Phillies/Houston Astros Over 10 -105* (Fixed Price)
Pending 3/30/10 1:05pm MLB Baseball 905 Detroit Tigers/Baltimore Orioles Over 9½ +110* (Fixed Price)
Pending 3/30/10 1:05pm MLB Baseball 907 Pittsburgh Pirates/Minnesota Twins Over 9½ -125* (Fixed Price)

You can get even more than that with less teams if you can pick out dogs.

I've won $1100 with a $100 on a two teamer.

1st bet = $100 to win $1100

2nd = $1200 to win $13,200

3rd = $14,400 to win $158,400


I don't even think any book allows so much on a parlay.

I am definately going to be doing this, starting opening day.

what ? losing money

 

[KingofNicotine]

I agree it will lose you money most of the time.

Unless you absolutely wait for GREAT and I mean GREAT opportunities.

 

[WorldNumberOne]

you would have to be a complete retard to risk the winnings of 2 straight 3 teamers on a 3rd ....

 

[WorldNumberOne]

why not just take the same $ 100 and roll it over 9 times in a row...

you'd make more...

 

[KingofNicotine]

I agree with that. Easier to roll over $100 on regular bets than doing parlays.

I love it when someone chimes in /w common sense that we should all have thought of, as gamblers, two days ago.

I don't think many of you are understanding how hard it is.

I am a VERY good baseball handicapper. Last year, betting an average of $150 a game i cleared over $5k in profit. I tracked my W/L in an excel spread sheet, with this idea I was very curious if I ever won 9 in a row, and how many times I done so..

The Answer is ZERO!!!!!

I was a little surprised because I can definitely hit a cold and a hot streak, but a 13-2 run is GREAT, but there are 2 losses in there that would make you lose it all with this concept.

This is my best sport, and I didn't hit 9 in a row all last year...

 

[KingofNicotine]

Defying, it's hard but possible.

Covers has a streak survivor contest. I regularly see people on there with 18 wins in a row.

It's not impossible if you take your time.

1- $100 (-110) to win $90.90

2- $190.90 (-110) to win $173.55

3- $364.45 (-110) to win $331.32

4- $695.77 (-110) to win $632.51

5- $1328.28 (-110) to win $1207.54

6- $2535.81 (-110) to win $2305.29

7- $4841.10 (-110) to win $4401.0

8- $9242.10 (-110) to win $8401.90

9- $17644 (-110) to win $16040

Total = $33,684

I stated this in my original post. Of coarse but sometimes opportunities and games call for making wagers that take place at the same time. Again you have to look at this as a THREE STEP PROCESS ON A $100 investment and that is it. If you get past the first two steps you have to look at it as you are not playing with your money and if it loses, you look at it as a $100 loss on an investment. I am talking about a life changing total money makeover. You have to pick and choose your opportunities when you want to make the next step. Lets keep this thread going. This will get interesting when we see the first person post that they got past step 2.

 

[shdw01]

when did everyone get so good they can win 9 in a row?

KoN, Oh, I 100% know its possible. It is something you have to try to do. I believe it is a DIFFERENT type of handicapping. I know I hit 14 or so in a row in 2008 during bases. I am just trying to remind people that they shouldn't assume they can do it.

I pick a lot of dogs, so a 2-1 days is a pretty good day for me. I am not trying to be perfect, I am trying to make money. With that said, it will take alot of skill and LUCK to be able to do this... Don't assume its only a matter time..

I remember Sooner tried something like this starting with $50. It was when I realized that the RX is great.

Sooner how many did you get in a row? 5?

 

[C.P.]

GREAT THREAD...@)

Either way...

you have to get hot and/or have some BIG BALLS...

I think the best I have done in Bases was 7 in a row...

no roll over... no pars..just straight bets...

I wish you guys the best..

lets keep this thread alive...maybe move it to BASES.(don't know)..

from here we can pick-up some good advice and GREAT PICS..

just a thought...d1g1t

 

[AlwayzRight]

No, this thread should be left here be because the three parlays could include games from different sports. For example, my first try at this and first step is probably going to be the 2 final 4 basketball games and the Yanks/Sox Sunday night.

yeah, 5 and i chickened out. it's not as easy thinking about it being the house's money and you've already rolled it about 25x.....by the way, it was actually 6 straight, but i started over after 5 when i played your baseball pick that wonhno:

 

[OnWisconsin]

speaking of luck, on that sunday's nfl games, i won the noon game for the 4th straight win (courtesy of VD), and i was waiting for my book to credit my account so i could bet it all on the eagles over the raiders....the book didn't credit my account in time so i wasn't able to put it all on the eagles....missed it by about 2 minutes, and the eagles lost SU.....ended up hitting the sunday night game for my 5th win

2 minutes made all the difference between $0 and $1300 and something....

 

[WorldNumberOne]

it might be little easier hitting 9 in a row when betting 100 a game.

would be a little tougher when you are letting it ride.. mentally speaking

all the bullshit in this thread gets filed in the " easier said then done " folder...

their isnt a single person on this board that would get past game 5 or 6 letting it ride... they would all stop and pull profits...

this thread should actually be moved to the fantasy sports section.
