Default Sports Betting

Anyone here do sports betting? Parlays on NFL or NBA. I got alot of information on those two sports only. I dont know shit about anything else. Would be willing to help out for a cut. I just won a 800$ parlay on NFL last week.
Just a random thought by Tom.

And when I say this I mean I can share my knowledge and info, in the end you make the picks, off of what I can share, then if you win a parlay of 200$ say, you can just toss me like 20$. No joke I know my shit in NBA, im not saying Im always going to be right, but ive won a decent amount of money in the past to know my abilities. I actually got a real easy way to win money but you got to bet about 20$ or more to make a decent profit. It pays back about 95% of the bet. PM me or just talk to me on here and we can talk about sports betting even if your not interested.

Penguinfan (who works for a sportsbook) says parlays are sucker bets. He also says that i's very, very, very difficult to be a long term winner, so if people toss you 10% of their winnings, won't that pretty much guarantee that they are long term losers?

As for your little 95% payback thing, even I know if something sounds WAY too good to be true, it is.

Edit: To confirm though, you are saying you know a way to turn $20 into $39, correct? If what ou really mean is you know a way to turn $20 into $19, I'm not sure why anyone would be interested in that....

20$ into 20$ + 19$. Parlays are for suckers when you are doing 10-12 team parlays. Doing a 3 team parlay is not what I consider a sucker bet. Its actually called a 3 team-7pt teaser. You throw down 20, make three team bet, change spread by 7 pts either way, and it pays back about 19$ to a 20$ bet.

Default Ill tell you what

Ill prove it right here...name me three games and Ill do a 3 team-7 pt teaser...Ill put 80% odds that Im right. or 4/5 times i will win the bet. But since you and phasi or whatever seem to like to bash whatever I say, EVEN THO I have done these before and know MY own personally odds(not the general) public, youll probably just laugh in my face.

Probably laugh in your face, huh? Somebody's awfully defensive.

I wish Penguin was here to talk sports betting. Did he leave us the other day when his insta-ban ultimatum wasn't met to his liking???

a 3 team 7 pt teaser would pay roughly -120 (you'd be risking 120 for every 100 you could win for those unfamiliar), and you'd have to win all 3 to win

no serious sports bettor uses these other than for kicks
