Tony Atlanta +13 and under 175 is correlated or Detroit -13 and over 175.

By definition it *IS* correlated if the Hawks covering somehow impacts the total. Since the Hawks covering *might* mean that it is a high scoring game, the two are somewhat correlated.

Essentially, you answered your own question -- if you're wanting to make the wager on Hawks +13 and the Over, you obviously have a feeling that the Hawks will cover and by covering the game will go over,thus correlation :)

T are you sure it's not because the line just moved on the total to 174.5? Not sure if you were trying to submit your wager before the move and they just aren't letting you complete it because of that.

No. Detroit -13 and over is a correlation. (if that's possible.)

Here's Pinnacle's answer:

Dear Pinnacle Sports client,

Please be informed that in many cases parlays are correlated. We are willing to accept the risk and have chosen to allow these correlations when the line is less than 10. However, the significance of the correlation increases greatly when the line is 10 or more.

Therefore, Pinnacle Sports does not accept same game parlays when the line is 10 or more. The same is true with first and second half lines of five or more.

This applies to same game parlays only. You may choose to include a team with a line of 10 or more and parlay that game to another event.

If you have questions, please email our 24 hour Customer Service Department at csd@pinnaclesports.com.

Best regards,

Customer Service Department

I know.


I don't believe there's such a thing as a correlated parlay to begin with.
Is there any evidence to base this on? I'd love to see it.

I agree with you 100%. the only evidence I can really see a correlated parlay is in like Football USC is favored by 28 and the total is 42.

Tony just got off the phone with Pinnacle and from what they are telling me and i quote "we understand Mr. Tony was almost hit by a plane today and we feel it is in are best interest not to accept any parley action from this fellow until further notice." They do believe the movie Aviator is now a lock for best picture!! J E T S LOL

Tony will be leaving for Vegas in the morning and will be flying over your area at about 9:57 am so keep an eye out for me and let me know if you want any action on the 9:57 # the over is now +107 at Pinny but cannot be parleyed with a potential crash because of a FIX FACTOR!! I will talk to you from Vegas and if you want me to throw in a monster bet on the game let me know.

Good luck out there.

I'll tell you my trick for picking the winner in the Super Bowl that's worked the three times I've been there for it. Go to Black Jack tables and look for the guys playing BJ like a moron and getting their ass kicked. Ask them who they like in the big game and then go the other way!!!

Works everytime. ;)

Fat Tony,

Didn't know if you knew that Atlanta's starting forward Josh Smith(7.8 PPG) is out at least 3-4 games after hurting his ankle Monday night against Orlando. He will be raplaced by Josh Childress(6.3 PPG) as a starter, and the off the bench help will be Dinta Carter(1.9 PPG).

The above combined with the fact that Detroit's Home defense is avreaging 86.2 PPG while Atlanta's Away defense is averaging 100.4 PPG is enough to make lots of books nervous about any side or total. As a result the game gets circled which equals no parlays.

Congrats on dodging the plane, GL

They won't let you do any combination of the side and the total using the same game when the game line is over -10. They are afraid of you loading the gameline with the over on a blowout. It is bullshit because I can't tell you how many times I have seen a favorite cover the spread and the game stay over.

Same in baseball with the runline and the over. Although it is not just the favorite and the over. They are also afraid of the dog and the under.

To me, no matter what they say, they are independent bets and it is bs.
