I've had many people try and explain it to me, but I still do not understand how betting lines work for baseball....

So you just have to bet the winners? No points or anything, but the payout is what changes right? So you can bet $10 and only win like $7 right?

So with this parlay, you have to have both teams win, and then how much do you win?

wtf.. driaz's team is basically unbeatable.. :mad:

what do you mean? :whoo:

Unlike so many teams, all my stars are playing well out of the gate, and the guys I took flyers on bouncebacks (Sandoval, Quentin, and Aramis Ramirez) are doing very nicely as well. And I just got Bay back off of the DL doing nicely...

It took a couple roster moves to really solidify my pitching staff, but I love, love, love the guys I got now....If I had a need I would offer some pitching in trade, but I'm pretty set for right now.....:D

Sorry, I was away eatin.......

With a parlay the amount you win increases exponentially..........so I bet 20 bucks on this parlay, and if both teams win then I will get $61 and some odd change back in return.

So I will end up actually winning $41+............right now things are lookin' good, but I need Florida to put up another run or two here.

Ok, so can you pick any two teams or are the teams you have to take set for you? Right now the Rockies are the best team in baseball, so did you have to pick Florida to get those parlay numbers? What if you wanted to parlay the Yankees and the Rockies to both win? How much would you win?

Yea you can choose any teams you want........you can parlay 5 teams if you want and win a lot of money.

I chose the Marlins over the Rockies just because they were at home :L........it depends on what the odds are as well with how much money you win.

The odds were set to pay me good if the Marlins won, so I was just kinda hoping I would win.

I should have you help me pick these teams before I bet on them.
