Parlays''

Ok say you wager a 3 team parlay 500.00/3000.00. This is JUST to show where PARLAYS do have value BUT you cannot just leave them alone once you place the wager..
Ok say the teams were
DET W
KC
PHILLY

Now Det went off first & WON... Now with games 2 & 3 all you do is wager 500.00 on OPPSITE sides . If The oppent of KC win's well you then BREAK even , - a few bucks on your parlay. But if they win you are 1 away from the BIG score & down -500.00. Ok Last play Philly. Go AGAINST them also for 500.00. If Phily win's well u hit your 3G parlay & lost -1000.00 on the 2 flat plays vr the oppents . Bottem line you KNOCK your KEY team in the 1st play of the PARLAY & you are NEVER in any harm of losing that ENTIRE up amount of $500.00.. You just dance with the remaining involved teams...

say all three teams are +100, this is the better way to do it..

500$ on Detroit it wins +500$
500$ on KC it wins +1000$
1000$ on Philly it wins +1000$ (total +2500$, if Philly loses your even $)

Much better way then what you just suggested. You can play this kind of thing in a IF bet.

Yes but PV.. On first play the KEY play Det it i will NOT use a go AGINST on that one.. That game stands on it's OWN merit.. I mean we all have a KEY fav on a card.. So i am only going 500 against the other 2. First game Det win's it's a CANT lose prop.'

yes, and using my method.. you don't bet against detroit either...

Using my method, if Detroit wins.. you are gauranteed at worse, an even +0 day.

You are correct..

but this is all assuming that all the lines are +100, which will for sure not be the case.

i usually play parlays for half/end tendencies in soccer, those give 23.0 up to 41.0 odds

but if i play a parlay, and i get into such a win win situation i trade out aswell
