If he took out 10K at a time why wouldn't he?

maybe...best bet would be to lose about 20 of it

keep trying man it will come eventually

Hell anyone who has enough coin to throw $278 on a eight team parlay wouldn't really miss 100,000 IMO. On the flipside I think the main dose of pain would have been created from missing the eight teamer by a single game and the thrill he would have endured had it hit. In any case, a tough one to absorb. hno:

yep....7th win, your chain smokin with a big smile, thinking...i can do this 20 times tomorow...with better odds....ooo goody

tough miss, these will take a little while to forget about, but you are clearly a VERY solid capper in order to nail 7 of 8, just keep doing what your doing and you soon enough we will see a ridiculous winner!!!! Good luck

If any of you frequent the LV Hilton Sports Book, there is this Asian guy you may have seen, who only plays 3, 4 , 5, and 6 team parlays for 1K to like 5K, this dude seems to hit with some frequency. I was there one weekend he hit a 2 Dime 6 teamer, paid 80K. I it was crazy.

damn thats gotta hurt!.. I feel the same when I have good streaks like I had earliesr this week.. 12-0, I dont look at it as winning 20 units...I look at it as missing out on +430...

damn!

I am confused didn't baltimore win last night??? and lost today?

BetJamica is very reputable so I don't think I would have had a problem. They wouldn't want all the negative posts on the forums. In this day and age the news would spread pretty fast if they didn't pay but I don't have to worry about it:sad3:.
