***SHALL WE PARLAY??? WEEK #11***

[JMED2]

SHALL WE PARLAY (progressively; of couse), OR JUST TEASE +6?

I am doing ALOT of homework to make up for last
weekend's Total DISASTER!!! :puke:

12 out of 12 is what I see as Total redemption and
I'm going to give it my Best!!! :thumbs:

I'll get 1-2 wrong :bang:; but Hey; 9 out of
12 pays 3 to 1; and that's better than a sharp
sticl in the EYE, ain't it? :beer2:

Best 2 ya,,,

Bombs Away!!!

Just dropped my first Big "ole 12 Pick
Progressive Parlay Ticket:

ARIZONA +3
SYRACUSE +7 1/2
NORTHWESTERN +5
WESTERN MICHIGAN -12 1/2
TEXAS A&M +20
UTAH +20
WYOMING +7
MICHIGAN STATE -3
MARSHALL +3
NEW MEXICO STATE +19
PITTSBURGH -6 1/2
EAST CAROLINA +5

And remember, I think 2 are 3 UNIT locks:

NORTHWESTERN +5
EAST CAROLINA +5

Progressive Parlay: 9 out of 12 still pays 3 to 1.

Good Luck this weekend!!! :thumbs:

JMED - I am confused about this. What is the advantage to hitting 9 out of 12 and having it pay 3 to 1? If I hit 9 out of 12 at equal units that is 5.4 to 1. and 8 is still 3.6 to 1.

Am I missing something?

[JMED2]

Well, I'm GREEDY!!!

I'm just playing down my HUBRIS and being modest. :nono:

I'm a GREEDY "BEE"!!! :hugegrin:

Trust me, I'm going for 12 out of 12 that pays 900 to 1!!!

And 11 out of 12 plays pays 80 to 1,,,a simple $5 bet become $4500 or $400 respectively. :cheers:

I just play all that down and concede 9 out of 12 still
pays something; and 3 to 1 is better than a sharp stick
in the eye for sure!!! :gulp:

I agree Franchise. I don't understand it either.

Parlays are a sucker bet, no matter how you slice and dice it.

And if the reasoning is ... it's just for fun, well, then, to each his own. I personally don't think its fun losing money.

Not attacking you JMED or your plays. In fact I like many of them. Just don't understand why you play them in a giant parlay. As Franchise points out, you'd make more money playing each game separate at equal money.

Good luck. Hit them all and make me eat crow!

[JMED2]

Yup!

Thanks Badger!!! :beerbang:

gl jmed, shouldve put yesterdays picks in there.

[JMED2]

Where do you guy place wagers?

Where I play:

If I bet $100 each 12 games and won 9:

9 WINS = $100 + WINS $95.25 = 195.25 X 9 = $1,757.25
3 LOSERS, YOU LOSE ALL SO: $0

START MONEY WAS $1200 AND END UP WITH $1757.25
which is a $557.75 profit or 46.5% profit.

Not bad if 9 are right; but a Progressive Parlay pays 3 to 1;
not 1-2 on 12 plays.

So if I risk $120 (1/10th) on a 12 Play and hit on 9,,,I win $360.

But I didn't risk the whole $1200 on it...so it pay out alittle
smaller. And yes, 8 out of 12 pays ZERO; so more risky.

You lose the whole $120...

But if I hit 10 out of 12; it pays $1200.00
If I hit 11 out of 12; it pays $9600.00
And goodness forbid 12 out of 12: that pays $108,000.00

I guess it's the diffrence between buying a Stock outright
and playing the Stock option.

It's a gamble for sure.
