I don't advise anyone to play parlays if they are serious about increasing their banroll, but I find one of these every so often cna be fun. I've yet to hit one, but this was REALLY close. Anyone else have similar near hits (or hits)?

On the bright side, the UNCW-Wisc game ended first so I didn't suffer. At that time the other three games were going on, and all of my teams were winning but I was sure at least one other team would blow it. Then I checked the scores a few hours later...I really didn't know how to feel, although I checked a few different websites to make sure the Wisconsin score was correct. Anyway, I had a great day with my straight up bets so I can't complain.

Did you mirror those moneylines with the points? I always like to do that myself...doesn't pay that much....but you had all the right sides, except for Wisky rallying like they did.

Not the moneylines, but I had UNCW and the Lakers plus the points for big plays. I had a great day (5-0 on my individual plays), so I'm not too bummed out. I figure I'll cash in one of these days. My biggest hit to date was a baseball parlay last year that paid $250 on a $5 bet. But I've probably lost twice that over the past 5 years trying for the big one. It's fun.

koro...i love the baseball parlays...just think if you added a couple of zeros to that 5! i like to play dog parlays and then mirror them with all the teams plus the 1.5 runs...usually only win the runline parlays....but the big hit sure would be nice someday!:103631605

Wow! Great try koroshiya! Did you have any gut feelings or insights on these dogs or were you just looking for some big MLs? Glad Wilmington lost first, I can't imagine how that'd feel if they were the late game.
