The Ultimate 3 Team ML Parlay (-114)

[ILoveMoney]

Ball State
Navy
Florida

ML all 3 at (-114)..........Putting half of my bankroll on this play.

 

[A2Gator]

To be honest, I wouldn't feel so confident about Florida. I'm a Gator fan and I wouldn't include them in any parlay this weekend. Too many unknowns in the SECCG. GL though, as a fan I'm certainly hoping this hits!

 

[CoolBreeze22]

if the first two hit, freeroll bama at +10 and hopefully you hit your middle.

 

[ILoveMoney]

CoolBreeze that is exactly what I was thinking. Navy game is at 12:00 so I should have plenty of time to play Bama at +10 and try to middle it.

 

[ILoveMoney]

phase 1 is tonight.

I know this is a dumb question, but I just recently started betting online (dropped my book after some nonsense decisions that cost me money)...

Anyhow, how to the "freerolls" work? I'm guessing that, once you bet enough, you build-up a "free" play; you bet that amount and, if it wins, you win...if it loses, you lose nothing?

Thanks.

Switch Oklahoma for Fla for a little more juice and that is my ML parlay for the weekend

Ok, for example. Say he bet $100 on a Fla/Navy/Ball St ML parlay. That means $100 that all 3 teams just win the game outright. Now Navy and Ball St win meaning he needs Fla to win outright in order to win his $100. So then he takes Alabama +10 for $100. So now he has Fla ML $114 to win $100 and Bama +10 for $110 to win $100. So..

If Bama wins he wins his Bama +10 and loses Fla ML meaning he loses $14
If Fla wins by 10+ he loses his Bama bet and wins his Fla parlay meaning he wins $10
If Fla wins by 1-9 then he wins Bama +10 and Fla ML meaning he wins $200. Those odds are pretty profitable IMO.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if Army beat Navy this weekend.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if Buffalo beat Ball St.

That's kind of what I thought...they give you a 'free' bet every here and there & you can choose to play it how you want.

Middling that particular bet would be a nice hit!

This.

Half your bankroll? Ouchie.

 

[Selectrick]

Would have looked really good with Buf in there instead of Ball St, better luck tomorrow!

 

[dice711]

I can't remember the last time I won a parlay. Glad I'm not alone.

 

[oddsonsports]

IMO I would take the points Army and Bama..

 

[joelatti]

half the BR

 

[RazorGus]

This is a great example of why parlays are sucker bets, especially ML parlays. You get the feeling its a "lock" b/c they are the better teams and heavily favored. Then the inevitable happens. At least you didn't put your whole BR on it. Still have plenty of ball left to make it up. Slow and steady- money mgmt. You can throw away an entire seasons work on these kind of plays in a weekend. BOL

 

[ILoveMoney]

I'm in complete awe. Half my bankroll gone and now I want to get it back and will probably blow all of it. Might take this week off.
