WeinkeToWarrick Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 You trying to guarantee a profit or "gamble" with it and make as most as you can gambling? Personally I do 3-team parlays, but not the 75% guaranteed profit strategy of betting all 8 possibilities (split between 2+ books) that some will suggest. If you can find half-way correlated plays all the better. If I have $1500 I would end up doing a bunch of $25/$50 3-teamers and just hoping I get hot...

BigBill365 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 just make sure with the free play in the beggining you only win the payout not the bet size so say ou bet $100 on a -200 to win $50 you would only get $50 not the $100.Many make that mistake and end up with 1/3rd to bet with.So defintly want to find some -110-+130 plays to start with maybe some 2 team parlays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theguesser Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Make sure of the books policy on Free Play Pushes, and if a push is a loss, never bet anything, parlays, teasers, straight bets, that can end up a push or be canceled for any reason.

Hedge Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 A lot of smart guys here, and I was wondering how some of you attack a free play? Say 1500 12x ro no max cash wanted to hear how some of you would go about it. different odds etc thx Is this bonus at HRW? If so, FPs are limited to lines at +160 or lower and no more than 2 teams in a parlay. And that's what you want to concentrate on, 2-team parlays with each leg at or near +160. You can offset each leg at another Book if you want to hedge for a guaranteed profit, provided your two selections aren't playing at that same time. Doing this will turn each $1 of FP into 65-70 cents of cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKolzig Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 yes freeplays have to be parlayed for max value if you have 1500 you can split that into 30 underdog parlays. like this one Ravens +150 Jets +115 Bruins +105 $50 to win $505 so you have to win 3 out of 30 of these to turn that into $1500 cash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVU Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Hedge is right on. The best EV move is to play 2 dog parlays of as close to +160 as you can get. Remember not to take plays that could push Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
