If you like Texas to win......

[golfball]

First let me ask this question. What are the chances that Missouri or Oklahoma would lose their game outright? I believe they are almost zero. Then if you like Texas to win the game you can bet a 3 team ML parlay for -114. It depends on what book you use but that's what I got this morning. I understand that some people just don't like doing this and that's ok. However, I've had very good results using this method to get the number I want on a game.

Texas
Missouri
Oklahoma

I like it.

What kind of odds would you get if you threw in the Kansas ML?

That 4 teamer would pay +135

what site do you use?

I like it with the KU game in there. KU homecoming after a huge loss. and KSU BLOWS.

I just don't trust Kansas. They should win easy but in these type of bets "for me" they just don't qualify. I use several different books. This one was at 5dimes.

Do they payout by check? if so, how long do they typically take to pay out?

Yes, and it's usually fast. Just go to the site and read their rules on depositing and withdrawls. If you have any questions just call their customer service department and ask.

I don't understand what you mean. The spread on the Mizzou game doesn't matter. This is a money line parlay.

Geeez, I've never thought about doing this. Say if you were to do this w/ USC, Alabama, and some other teams that are almost guaranteed to win, say a 6 team parlay with huge favorites, I wonder what that would pay out? Good thinking.

LOL

I've seen this trainwreck before.

Moneyline parlays are a bad idea. They've been discussed at length in this forum. All it takes is one Stanford beating a USC to screw a whole bunch of winning picks for you.

The small extra profit hitting bets like this brings isn't worth the large extra risk.

What ever happened to that guy that bet who made his "Free Dinner" bet for $2000 to win $16 on USC over Stanford.

 

[Sekrah]

Haha I found it..

I see alot of 2008 signups on here.. You are about to get a lesson you should never forget.

PARLAY (2 TEAMS) Risking: 1548.00 To Win: 20.06
10/06/2007 @ 04:00 PM [374] USC -16000 - CFB
10/06/2007 @ 09:05 PM [396] HAWAII -15000 - CFB


Lines at CRIS. This has an immeasurably small chance of losing. I will spend the free $20 on dinner for the family (Vietnamese take out).

I hope he's still around. He seemed like a good guy and it also seems that I recall some good, solid posts from him before that. What a painful, painful lesson that was.

For those of y'all not around last season, the short version of the story is that a poster decided that betting USC against Stanford was a no-risk play and decided to lay his bankroll on the Trojans moneyline, figuring he'd eke out enough of a profit to pay for dinner out.

But the Trees chose not to cooperate.

 

[jblonghorn]

Oh my lord, that is toooo funny (kind of). Unreal story. And Vietnamese take-out on top of it. All American, are you in South or North Austin? I'm south, down in Circle-C area....

I'm up northwest, in the general Parmer/Mopac area.
