My Bookie is stupid

[Letswinalot]

I'm not sure what you gain. If a push on a parlay is a loss, that offsets the O/U thing and nothing is gained. Locals can suck my crank because i have never met one in my 25 years of gambling that have ever used legit Las Vegas odds and rules and yours doesn't either.

Could be .5 bets that I do where push doesnt factor.

Letswin this is my thinking for instance u play


Parlay $100


over 24 1 st half
Over 52 for game.


Lets say first half they score 40 you for sure know you have won $100 to win $100.


Let's say they score 24 fist half then 45 2nd half that is a loser.


If you would have just wavered $100 on the final over it would have been a winner but slow 1st half killed you.


Why not play over 52 for game if they score 40 first half then you can do 1 of 2 things pull for an easy 12 points for the win or take under 35 for 2nd half.That means if total falls between 52 and 75 u win both ways.

not trying to be an asshole buddy just want u to see both sides.For the game total to go over you need a good 1st half almost all of the time.There have been alot of games go over that went way under the 1st half.My point is its very hard to be right on 2 plays why make it 2 plays when you can get the same thing back by just wagering the final total.

If some local is doing this turn us all on to him... No local can afford this no matter who they are.. Sorry not buying it

i guess i am just stupid what is the advantage to having this option.Why would it be so easy to win.You still have to win both bets you would have to have over first half and over 2nd half to win the parlay right.Dont understand.

Sportsbooks may take it Locals will not unless they have a million bucks in the bank and at that point they don't have to book.. If you have a new England game vs Miami and you put a first half line at ne -4 and over 21.5 who do u think everyone would be on

I would say NE and over

A book can absorb that a local can't and wont

but would not everyone be on new england -7 and over 42.5

public was on this game huge what i am saying is what is the difference i am not understanding why its such a for sure bet and easy $$$$$$ to be able to play a first half total and a game total and use both as a parlay what is the advantage.

Now I know ya can't see it but I took ne game ne over
Ne 2nd half and over 2nd half


Yep I know if I lose the book wins....BUT as a local if anyone is one and you offer more plays and get beat on 1st half etc and 2nd half whatever... Plus the game scenario you may as well cash your season in unless you have 10 people or a huge backing. Local books don't want beat on the same scenario same game ten different ways... I am sure you know what I am saying...they would love to win 10 different ways but to put it out there with that scenario I don't think it happens...*

To simplify things as I made no sense. Locals make it simple. They can not afford to offer three ways to Sunday. If some can they have huge backing or very few people. Someone will be broke quick. Locals here on Monday stopped taking bets coz they had to much on NE which is bullshit.... Amazing huh..

i understand what you are saying but not what the original question in this thread.How will playing a 1st half total and a game total be an easy winner as a parlay.sERIOUSLY WHY TAKE THE CHANCE OF LOSING A 1ST HALF O/U PARLYED WITH THE GAME O/U CAUSE U HAVE TO WIN BOTH AND I HAVE SEEN MANY GAMES GO VERY LOW IN THE FIRST HALF BUT GO OVER FOR THE GAME TOTAL.I AM SAYING WHY PLAY IT AS A PARLAY CAUSE U ARE HANDCUFFING YOUR PLAY.OF COURSE YOU MIGHT WIN THE PARLAY BUT YOU WOULD ALSO HAVE WON IF JUST PLAYING THE END TOTAL WHY EVEN PLAY THE 1ST HALF AS THE PARLAY.

[gizmo]

The first sentence that started this thing was his guy takes parlays when for instance Alabama -30 and total is 45, no normal book takes hook ups on same game unless the total is 3 times the spread.

It makes it easier to win when you can do this because you can play the fav and over or dog and under it hits either way about 80% of the time it is very rare when the line is like that where it comes in Fav and under or Dog and over.

parlaying first half with the same game really doesnt do anything for me but the disadvantage you said that a push is a loss for your parlay is huge.There a alot of pushes for first halves and games so this is what will get you.

Yea Bryce I lied lol Why wont online let u half and full parlay if its not an advantage? The 2 Ive did were Miss State/AUB over/over and Tenn/Cincy. 2 for 1s almost.

I didnt know he would take the over/over till recently, Im trying not to blow its cover though.
