Georgetown Screws me out of a nice payday!!

[xstac2169]

I alwas put in a 10-15 team parlay every night for about $3 a night for fun. I have hit a few of these over the years. Georgetown was the last 1 I needed last night to hit my first one this year. They could not score 1 more basket for a push as I bought 3 points. What a loss to wake up to. Now I know it was only $3 but what could have been is killing me.

That sucks, but you would have hit it if you did a ML parley.

Better Luck nexttime.

[Dkngstn9]

If you don't mind?

Can you tell me where you get to buy points on parlays. I do the same thing like you and play 7 to 10 team parlays. But i can't buy points.

I use 5dimes mostly. They allow you to buy points on all the games in a parlay.

Nice hit on that one yesterday!!

[meaiken]

BoDog allows it also

[birdog]

The greek allows it too

[Chado1]

Almost all big major reputable books allow you to buy points!

10 cents per half point is robbery man it pisses me off....but they love when you do it....
