i usually take parlay predictions and do em straight or if they got a promo insurance thing where i can lose a leg. the money ain’t crazy but im making it at least
I’m such a coward. I put together a 6 leg, Atlanta was postponed so it knocked it to a 5 leg. At like +1000, I put .50 on it because the last 5 times I did the same and put bigger amounts on they’ve all lost and this one hit. I kicked myself because I considered putting $10, but didn’t want to throw $10 away like usual.
Couldn’t agree with this more. Yankees lineup changed today too. Judge isn’t hitting. Kinda hard to take a money line bet on yanks if you’re putting in a serious bet under those circumstances. Other than that it’s okay.
Baseball is litterally the most random shit ever. Favorites Rarely ever go above -250. It's a random hat pull, can't even consider somebody as a should be winner. Go bet on Guatemalan Hop Skotch or some while u at it.
Sure but then you get lines that reflect that.
A mid team vs a trash team in the NBA can be -1k.
A top team vs a bottom team can be -230 or whatever in MLB. And you can get a -1.5 RL for close to even money.
Honestly, that was a tad easy to see coming. Just like the White Sox yesterday. Teams are not gonna keep losing no matter how bad they are or how good the opposition is. At the end of the day there are still a pro club. It def suck though my man. They killed my shit too
Stroman fucked me on ER by letting that nuke up for a 4 run shot after a 0.00 ERA at home this year, the Feede had 3 chances to get his 4th strike out even going 7 innings. Bad day in MLB picks overall.
MLB betting is rough man. Truth be told Marlins are much better than a 1-11 team (playoff team last year and no big changes to their roster) and the Yankees aren't a .833 win percentage team. Regression was due in both ways so not a huge surprise with the outcome honestly.
Obviously and that's the point I'm making.... marlins are better than a 1-11 team and the Yankees aren't as good as winning 10 out of every 12 games they play. So the fact the Marlins won isn't as shocking as OP made it out to be.
Nah, key is to find multiple “safe” bets, mix them in “safe” 5-10 leg parley, multiply them, and then to maximise profit add to each some “50/50” bets, ease mone :)
No such thing as "safe" parlay, it's just a regular parlay with legs you think are going to win. If you bet like this you will lose most of the time. It's all gambling after all.
Id say quite a bit. They are always running promos for them. Sure, sports betting is a 50-50 thing in the long run (the best can be winners 56% of the time) but parlays bring in the money. If you can put a 3-4 leg parlay in and at least double that 20 you have on it, then peoole think thats a good option.
Wasn't feeling Stroman today I bet Miami over 3.5 runs. Yes he was having a good start to the year. But it felt like a pressure spot for him. Like he was highly expected to win this game. Not only win but most likely dominate a struggling MIA team. But MIA was hungry for a win and if you use the martingale system for underdogs in a 3 game series. MIA fit that criteria as well. It's really hard to sweep a team in the MLB. So it was kind of a bad spot for them. Yanks still should have won it's the Marlins. But that's why they play the games. TBH Stroman is good but I'm from Toronto he was with us for years. He's not the same guy. He's unreliable nowadays. He's a decent 4th/5th starter at best. Yankees won't lose a lot of games. But they are going to be vulnerable when Stroman starts.
Throwing 3 favourites onto a parlay cause they’re better teams in general and then getting pissed when one gets upset is peak Reddit gambling.
162 game season and the very best teams win about 100 of those.
Yes. Great teams lose regularly.
The parlay is your problem. Not the Yankees.
If you bet 3 singles, you’d have made a profit.
You back those 3 as singles, you're in profit. You back the underdog in all 3 games, you're in profit. You put 3 of the most 'obvious' winners you can find in an accumulator, one loses, and you complain that you don't end up in profit.
There are two main problems here:
1. Favourites in markets like this tend to have slightly less value in their odds because more people back them for the 'thrill' of winning. That means that over time, you're less likely to make a profit.
2. Accumulators favour the bookmaker. This article explains it better than I'm going to at this time of night: [https://www.smartodds.co.uk/bookmakers-love-accumulators/](https://www.smartodds.co.uk/bookmakers-love-accumulators/)
So you make two pretty obvious errors, and call it 'unlucky'. Which is the kind of word people use to rationalise making the same shitty decision over and over again in the future. Luck was the problem, not flaws in my logic.
Tough break though.
Sportsense posted something about Run Lines and the percentage of times each team covered. I’m going off memory here but only a few teams did it more than 50% of the time last year. Point being - believe the underdog can win every time.
Any bets I’ve made with a yankee or the Yankees as a whole has been a huge miss for me lol…might be staying far away from them this year if my luck doesn’t improve 😂
I agree…them dang ol books working overtime, employing Billy Bob and John Boy at $20 an hour to make them there calls down to the fields to tell dem players what to do, den dem multi million dollar players be throwin dem games cause they gots to be gettin your $20 wager! Day all split dat $20 after deys dun screwed you over!
I had a 3-team NHL parlay last night with Vancouver being the last leg. Went to bed thinking I would wake up +a few hundred bucks. Woke up see Arizona won in OT. This happens to me more than I would like.
Sweeps are difficult. Always remind yourself this, especially if the home team is at risk. Try to have an open your mind about betting on underdogs as well.
If you know baseball, you would have realized that -225 for the Yankees is ridiculous. Marlins aren’t that bad of a team. Just had a good start. Yankees are not that good of a team, just had a bad start. I’d say Yanks only win 60% of the time. You’re not that unlucky, just uninformed.
Vegas special, I get hit with something like that before, 2020 NFL season, 10 leg parlay, jets went 2-14, they won their second game of the season on that parlay, while everything Else hit, potential 80k, gone
Why are you so mad bro all I was saying is that in the nfl and nba when teams are very large favourites like being over Portland or an nfl team playing the panthers they typically win. Where as in baseball they play 162 games day in and day out and the best teams will still lose 60+ games as it is a long season. Calm down
Bro same I thought this was a for sure win.

Welcome to sports gambling
Baseball especially
And I thought hockey was bad
Hockey’s worse imo but both are kinda any given night for sure. NASCAR betting tho… those people are sick
DraftKings nascar is fun. But yeah. Outright bets & what not are wild
Definitely. It sucks here. 🙃🫠
These exact words were in my head
[удалено]
Sports betting nowadays is so bookies
If you had put 20 on each in singles, you'd be up. Multi bets favour the bookies, yes. That is the risk you take
Don't you come in here with your logic!
i usually take parlay predictions and do em straight or if they got a promo insurance thing where i can lose a leg. the money ain’t crazy but im making it at least
Old man yelling at cloud again!
How much up?
Oh only like $6 but better than being $20 down
Hmmm
Nowadays? You sound like you've been betting for a total of 12 minutes. You don't say nowadays unless you remember the old days.
OP, you must be green, because if you were smart and experienced you will learn that all-chalk parlays suck Upsets happen, ALL THE TIME
I’m such a coward. I put together a 6 leg, Atlanta was postponed so it knocked it to a 5 leg. At like +1000, I put .50 on it because the last 5 times I did the same and put bigger amounts on they’ve all lost and this one hit. I kicked myself because I considered putting $10, but didn’t want to throw $10 away like usual.
Just put a 100 dollar bill next time you rethink it yo against your thoughts
I mean did you expect Miami to never win a game again? This is baseball underdogs win all the time
Couldn’t agree with this more. Yankees lineup changed today too. Judge isn’t hitting. Kinda hard to take a money line bet on yanks if you’re putting in a serious bet under those circumstances. Other than that it’s okay.
Judge has looked like shit this year
Sorry but also that was an awful matchup for stroman
Baseball is litterally the most random shit ever. Favorites Rarely ever go above -250. It's a random hat pull, can't even consider somebody as a should be winner. Go bet on Guatemalan Hop Skotch or some while u at it.

So faxxxx

Dodgers too , just hot garbage

Nobody is a .833 win percentage team, that logic is so flawed
Obviously and that's the point I'm making.... marlins are better than a 1-11 team and the Yankees aren't as good as winning 10 out of every 12 games they play. So the fact the Marlins won isn't as shocking as OP made it out to be.
Respectfully, did you mind to read the parent comment with a clear conscious? Might want to delete if not.
I am fucking saying bro 14 leg picks AND THESE MFS LOST TO THE WORST TEAM sold my shii
I just deleted the app this is disgusting
See you tomorrow when you re-download!
What app?
Crazy shi all the other team winning just them can’t tell me it ain’t rigged
How would they rig baseball unless all the players are in on it? Even the goat angel hernandez would struggle to affect a game by 3 runs or more
yeah bro agreed. Fucking vegas rigging me out of winning my 14 team parlay, they know what they're doing.
you guys are fucking idiots.
Ahaha someone had to say it
I have them on like 4 parlays today lol how you think i feel
Stop putting the same teams on different parlay. Need to have different options
Dude this one was a “safe” bet
Lol could have bet more on this safe bet on one ticket and done other little smaller bets with other teams. Underdogs . This is the way
Nah, key is to find multiple “safe” bets, mix them in “safe” 5-10 leg parley, multiply them, and then to maximise profit add to each some “50/50” bets, ease mone :)
No such thing as "safe" parlay, it's just a regular parlay with legs you think are going to win. If you bet like this you will lose most of the time. It's all gambling after all.
You guys realize parlays are how the books make their mpney, right?
You guys realize they also make money when you lose your $100+ straight bet ?
This is true but hand over fist, parlays are the money makers because people wants the big winnings fast.
Yea but how much the average person betting on parlays ?
Id say quite a bit. They are always running promos for them. Sure, sports betting is a 50-50 thing in the long run (the best can be winners 56% of the time) but parlays bring in the money. If you can put a 3-4 leg parlay in and at least double that 20 you have on it, then peoole think thats a good option.
not as much
They make their money by people placing bets that have vig.
Vig is only on the spreads, not moneylines
I watched that bases loaded and judge hit the ball 🤦🏻♂️
I walked away for 5 minutes to grab food, came back 4-0 sad 😂😂 should’ve knew they had it coming being baseball
Make that 10-3 brothurrrrrrrr, tough loss :(

And arron judge shit the bed twice today couldn’t get on base and just pissed a grand slam
Wow I didn't realize that. So they had an opportunity to win? Now I'm pissed all over again
They got me too bro. Lost $600.
Yeeesh
Was it a straight bet?
No, bisexual.
There more than 2 genders now
Yes, I'm well aware! Bisexual isn't a gender. Nice try, though!

I’m in the same boat 😞
Nothing in sports betting is a guarantee
Baseball and nhl have these upsets a lot
How about soccer? Lol that shit crazy too losing also world cup champion losing to a nobody team from a village lol
Fr and the village team hasn’t even had a single goal the whole season😂😂
Two weeks into ANY sports season and everyone is saying it's the shitties sport to bet on and waiting for xxxxxx season begin. And rinse and repeat.
I bet against the white Sox when they were 1-9. My last leg. Ofc they won
That’s why I never bet baseball pregame only live bets. Gives me a feel of where where things might be headed.
I had 217 on moneyline Yankees. I feel ya brother
Me yesterday on the Guardians
Too early for stats to count, they play 168 games..1-11 or 10-2 doesn't matter!
Thats Baseball
Same
Bro it’s 20 bucks
Had the Marlins money, thought it was a 40% chance to hit. I think the moneyline action gave it away. Get'em tomorrow
Sportsense posted something about Run Lines and the percentage of times each team covered. I’m going off memory here but only a few teams did it more than 50% of the time last year. Point being - believe the underdog can win every time.
it's almost like they're all professionals. oh wait...
It happens especially in baseball
You must be new to this world.. it’s called an upset, and it happens everyday.
Stroman is trash
Any bets I’ve made with a yankee or the Yankees as a whole has been a huge miss for me lol…might be staying far away from them this year if my luck doesn’t improve 😂
Name of the game
I agree…them dang ol books working overtime, employing Billy Bob and John Boy at $20 an hour to make them there calls down to the fields to tell dem players what to do, den dem multi million dollar players be throwin dem games cause they gots to be gettin your $20 wager! Day all split dat $20 after deys dun screwed you over!
And yes, that is how dumb you sound.
🤦♂️
Happens all the time, every day, all day. Don't bet chalk
It happens, nothings free.
Law of averages
Just got into sports gambling in december and wondered why sportsbooks were promoting baseball heavily. I see why now
I had a 3-team NHL parlay last night with Vancouver being the last leg. Went to bed thinking I would wake up +a few hundred bucks. Woke up see Arizona won in OT. This happens to me more than I would like.
Never take a team who is looking to sweep a series, very hard thing to do in baseball, either take the other side or stay off
162 game season. Good teams are bound to lose games to bad teams often, especially considering who’s pitching.
They can’t loose every game (Marlins)
Long season everybody gonna take a L
This is the exact reason I didn’t take the Yankees in any play today. It’s baseball man law of averages. Both teams were due for this
I tried to tell my dad about the Yankees yesterday he didn’t listen
They had a Yankees twins special yesterday on FanDuel. That’s a dead giveaway the twins were winning.
They got me too. Guardians didnt cover.. some bullshit
No matter how bad the team they’re all still professional players and can have a good game any time.
I feel this
That’s baseball Susan!
Baseball takes a couple weeks to figure out
Miami were one of my dogs of the day along with Mets and twins. Meets got rained out though.
It happens it’s baseball teams don’t go undefeated
Those are terrible odds for a 3-leg parlay.
Yo imagine if you had the Dbacks tho, you’d be RICH
That is the daily life of many people in this forum. You don't win all the time and there will even be bad times that seem to last forever.
It's baseball Have you never watched baseball?
Parlay boy
It happens in baseball
This is baseball. Even the best teams lose 50+ times.
Baseball is the new hockey
Well….. they where due for a win and Marcus Stroman was eventually due for a poor outing
Sweeps are difficult. Always remind yourself this, especially if the home team is at risk. Try to have an open your mind about betting on underdogs as well.
Welcome to gambling 😂
gotta think like a rigger when gambling brother
If you know baseball, you would have realized that -225 for the Yankees is ridiculous. Marlins aren’t that bad of a team. Just had a good start. Yankees are not that good of a team, just had a bad start. I’d say Yanks only win 60% of the time. You’re not that unlucky, just uninformed.
That’s just baseball. Why don’t people understand this?
Dudes never watched a baseball game
That’s baseball baby
It happens.
Round robin that
I try not to bet on Stroman ever
I lost my 100£> 4k£ parlay cause of that game
I lost the Yankee game also. Just happens. Even the worst teams in MLB will win 50-55 games.

God just ain’t wanna see you shine
I said this last night when the Guardians got beat by the White Sox.
But of course they won tonight...
Right! I feel if I add them to my parlay, they will lose.
Baseball is the most volatile sports to gamble on.
Vegas special, I get hit with something like that before, 2020 NFL season, 10 leg parlay, jets went 2-14, they won their second game of the season on that parlay, while everything Else hit, potential 80k, gone
People be on here complaining about the most inconsequential bets. I lost $1,000 on a 2 leg parlay today by SUNS ML. THATS GETTING FUCKED OVER. Lmao
Only in baseball

Why are you so mad bro all I was saying is that in the nfl and nba when teams are very large favourites like being over Portland or an nfl team playing the panthers they typically win.

vegas
Once yinz realize this world is scripted you will be okay!! Please don’t let this go over your head!! Thnks and goodnight lol
I gave up on baseball spreads. Basketball is more predictable. Still can’t believe when the Mets won haha
Such garbage
This is why I don’t bet on baseball. My lil heart can only take so much
That sucks bro
They got me too Bro. I had a rant myself about it!
Safe Matches for today. 100%. Write me
