Seconded. Don't do parlays. Find value, make bet, collect winnings.

Way too many bets, and there is no need to parlay. You just make your odds longer. The only parlays I even consider are 2 fight parlays with favorites.

With all those bets you are betting against yourself. You basically wasted 45 dollars. The only one that has a chance is teh last one, but you will only win 100... you would be better off just putting yoru $45 on a -200 underdog.

He's right, I've lost more than I've won on parlays for sure. I still do some occasionally just for fun, but that's it. It definitely shouldn't be the core of your betting strategy.

By the way, you gotta lose the ALL CAPS, dude.

Welcome to the forum man.

I agree, parlays are for fun bro, leave them at that.

Just follow these guys advise, they are quite good at what they do.

u = units. Everyones are different. Mine is $100, some guys are more, some less.

Yeah, a unit is essentially the basic element of your bankroll, like you're core bet. So if someone's unit is $20 and they say they bet 2.5 units then they bet $50.

for me my unit is 100 dollars if it said 5 units to win 2.5 units it would mean I have 500 to win 250 on a favorite that is -250

I unit is just a percent of your bankroll usually 2.5% or 5% of the money you have to wager with


I use to do parlays alot but then I started seeing I was hitting 2 of 4 and 3 of 4 fights .I was losing money but winning more fights than I was losing .So I started betting single fights and winning money.

I say if you are winning money with parlays do them but if you see you are winning 3 out 5 fights start betting them individually.


Welcome man if you have any questions the people around here will be glad to help
