is it really worth it to lay on all of em?

Laying money on an inconsistent pittsburgh team to this point of the tourney they have looked shaky.

as did louisville against siena..

unc has been solid although lsu gave them a run for it until the 2nd half.. you may think unc can beat gonzaga easy but what if lawson isn't really 100% or even if he gets that toe stepped on in a scramble..

would be throwing away 2000 imo

Def wouldnt be worth throwing that away. I think 1 of the 2 number ones will go down tomorrow night. Uconn may go out first. Pitt isnt that solid and by all means neither is Louie and my heels isnt a shoe in at all whether lawson is 100% or not. Too risky imo but gl with it! Im going all dogs tomorrow night I believe. If any I would play Villy money line:103631605

Fuck yeah, pound that shit......they aint losin'......he's NOT going to lose 2,000...they would ALL have to lose....if one loses he breaks about even...I really dont think 2 are going to lose.....quite frankly, they should all win...I like the bet! Ask yourself if you would feel better taking the dogs in every game...my answer is NO....you would still have to win 2 to make money....fuckin pound them favs!!!!!!

I thought we was going to just lay the amount on each to win $100????

Its ok, He said "parlay" thats why its not worth it. Think, even in football or baseball fave, you dont see many of those hitting. Plus, it isnt worth putting that much on the line. I would take the team I thought was more likely towin and just bet the $ line on it. Besides straight bets, I will sometimes play a reverse on 2 teams and some teasers. If its a parlay, I would have to go with the lines. Cards and possibly heels $ line would be ok but still, this is the tourney bro, anything can happen!!

I'm hitting it. ~~:<<
I thik all #1 seeds advance and we lose 1 or 2 of them in the elite 8. So 2 or 3 #1 seeds will make the final four. UCONN will pound Purdue on the boards. They aren't big enough. The Boilermakers defensive could give UCONN problems but I don't see the upset happening. Louisville's biggest weakness is rebounding. Too bad Arizona can't exploit it, but Michigan St will if they face in the elite 8. Xavier has the size to play with pitt but they are lacking at the guard position. Gonzaga is a complete team and will give the Tarheels a game no doubt. I will probably play Gonzaga +8.5 and use NC moneyline in the parlay.

Strong stat: Since 1998 in the Sweet 16, favorites of more than 5 points are 37-2 straight up.

1 of those losses has got to be zaga over florida in 99 am i right?

2002 - Duke lost to Indiana (73-74) Duke was a 13 point favorite
2006 - Duke lost to LSU (54-62) Duke was a 6 point favorite

I checked it out and there has been lots of scares.

Some helpful historical stats regarding #1 seeds

Over the 24 seasons there have been a total of 192 Sweet Sixteen games -- 8 per season for 24 seasons.

The four most frequent seeding matchups have been --

1 vs 4 -- 34 matchups -- there are 2 such matchups this season (Pitt vs Xavier and North Carolina vs Gonzaga)

1 vs 5 -- 32 matchups -- there is 1 such matchup this season (UConn vs Purdue)

2 vs 3 -- 29 matchups -- there are 4 such matchups this season (Duke vs Villanova, Memphis vs Missouri, Michigan State vs Kansas and Oklahoma vs Syracuse)

2 vs 6 -- 23 matchups -- there are no such matchups this season

Thus the 4 most frequent matchups account for 118 of the 192 Sweet Sixteen games, or 61+ percent of all Sweet Sixteen games.

The other matchup this season matches a 1 seed (Louisville) vs a 12 seed (Arizona), a matchup that has occurred 15 times in the 24 seasons.

1 vs 4
The # 1 seed has won 24 of the 34 matchups straight up (70.6 %) but is just 19-14-1 (57.6%) ATS.

1 vs 5
The # 1 seed has won 27 of the 32 matchups straight up (84.4%) but is just 13-16-3 (44.8%) ATS.

1 vs 12
The # 1 seed has won ALL 15 of the prior matchups straight up (100%) and is a solid 9-6 (60.0%) ATS.

2 vs 3
The # 2 seed has won 19 of the 29 matchups (65.5%) and is 16-13 (55.2%) ATS.

Maybe you should look at some of the other seed matchups.

Hope this can be of some help with your plays.

GL.

Played prop bet "all 4 #1 seeds make final four" 100 win 900

if it is going to happen this is the year as the matchups are favorable and getting nice odds isn't terrible either.
