Decent Situation UNC vs. Clem

had 10* on UNC ml, and a parlay with MIlwaukee Bucks ml (won) and Clem ml. Clemson leasing at half by 3, and were +5 for the 2nd half. took clem 2nd half for 5*, and thus have the following possibilities:

1. UNC Loses Game: lose .8*overall
2. UNC wins by >2: lose .5*
3. UNC wins by 2: win 4.5*
4. UNC wins by 1: win 9*

only coulda won 5* if UNC won by any number of points with the ml straight bet. and if they lost i would have lost 10* on the straight ml, yet won 5* on the parlay, thus losing 5* total. best chance was UNC ml win. not liking how good clemson looks, so i figured i would in effect buy my bet back via that 2nd half clemson....so now i can win more than i ever could have if UNC pulls off the 1 point win, come out about the same as if they had won the straight bet if they win by 2, and only lose about .5-1 unit if they win by more than 2 or lose. lovin it. gl UNC/Clem bettors
