Heavy juice ML favs. with enough teams/players in the parlay to bring it close to +100 odds.

I use this strategy mainly in European/International Soccer, Tennis and College Basketball.

I enjoy the same, but I've learned the hard way that a soccer ML in a parlay or elsewhere.... just too dangerous for me.

One of the rare sports where you can have a team with a 23-1 record but 19 of their victories are by 1 goal.... ie, in 20 of 24 games you are just a simple mistake or handball from there being a tie and thus a loss for the ML.

4 teamers at close to even odds for 100 to win 1200 mostly

I like to play 8 or 9 round robin parlays in groups of three or four. Some books now have an 8 team max.

I'm partial to the 3x2 round robins, with 3 games that go off at different times.
Example on NFL Sunday will do a morning, afternoon, and the night game together.
It's nice going into the night game (if the RR is still alive) somewhat in the driver's seat and can adjust or hedge based on what has happened during the day, and any line movement on the night game that has occurred.
If the last game is a moneyline fave might opt to play back the dog + the points (or on the runline in baseball) to try to win both, especially if there has been considerable line movement.

I like this one.

But how are you getting lines down to evens?

....

But then I broke down the #'s:

-110 @ 4 = 1228
+100 @ 4 = 1500


So just regular -110's will do. I think I like this for a football weekend. 2 best on Sat and 2 best on Sunday.... and have the 4th game be later in the day on Sunday and last so can cash out in a buy out if end up not liking the game. Not bad.

I was referring to a -110 line at close to even. I like to do it in foots picking 2 O/U plays and 2 sides.

That's what I thought you were saying.... but near evens pays 1500. -110's pays 1228.

Had he made that penalty, then this is an odds on favorite at this point. Oh well
