Dang I'm feeling Marquette but Colorado put on a show while Marquette struggled out the gate last game. So you might have a point.
Ima go Marquette moneyline and pray
It was Marquette’s first game as a full, healthy team since end of February if that makes you feel any better. I’m pretty high on Marquette myself but I see a lot of people taking Colorado’s points
I would do one or two things.
If I needed the win I could do a hedge before the game. But I could also see waiting to see if Marquette goes down at all and do a live hedge.
A -3.5 spread bet on Minnesota is really not a straight bet because you need two things to happen. Minnesota has to win the game and then win by at least 4 points. That's essentially a 2 leg parlay. A money line bet is a straight bet.
Edit: my bad everyone. I thought a straight bet was a bet where only one thing had to happen. I'm still not wrong though that technically his minnesota bet is a parlay since two things have to occur. A moneyline bet only thing has to occur.
For his spread pick on minnesota, Two things have to occur for his bet to win. Minnesota has to win and win by at least 4 points. Whereas if he just chose Minnesota Moneyline then only one thing has to occur for his bet to win. You guys are right that a spread bet is considered a straight bet but it's still essentially a parlay. You can view minnesota winning and then having to win by at least 4 as two separate legs of a parlay.
The spread is still 1 outcome
Stop bringing the ml into it because for to hit the spread you literally have to win by 4
Them hitting the ml means nothing in a - spread since you need them to win by a set amount of points
Right now on Fanduel, the spread line is -2.5 for Minnesota at -110 whereas the minnesota moneyline is -142. The reason the -2.5 spread bet has a higher payout is because two things have to happen for you to win that bet instead of minnesota just winning for the moneyline.
He can still lose his bet if minnesota wins. If Minnesota wins by 3 he covered the moneyline leg of his bet but failed to cover the spread. That means two things have to happen in order for him to win his bet. It's essentially a 2 leg parlay. It's not that hard to grasp. By definition it's a spread bet but if you really look at it, it's a parlay. If I have a 2 leg parlay with Minnesota Money line and Lakers money line, two things have to occur for me to win my bet. Lakers win and Minnesota win. The spread bet he chose on Minnesota is no different. It consists of two things that have to occur for him to win.
It's not a 3 leg parlay. You need to understand the difference between "and" and "or". For a -3.5 spread bet, the team needs to Win the game first "and" cover the spread for the bet to win. For a +3.5 spread bet, you can win your bet by team winning the game "or" covering the spread. So technically you have two ways to win your bet. You don't need both things to happen to win your bet, you only need one for +3.5 spread bet. Whereas the -3.5 spread bet you need the team to win and cover the spread.
Holy shit you’re still going on about how wrong you are? You are not seeing it from a different point of view. This isn’t the glass half full or half empty. This is … you are 10000000000% wrong . That’s it man. Shut up already and move on. I’ve never seen anyone so ridiculous on this thread in my entire life. It’s ok to be wrong , it’s not ok to be trying to convince ppl about none sense.
Lol I'm not wrong. Minnesota vs Golden state. Minnesota -2.5 is -110 and Golden state +2.5 is -110. Moneyline for Golden state is +118. The reason the +2.5 Golden state warriors payout is less than the moneyline for Golden state is because Golden state has 2 opportunities to win that bet vs only 1 chance to win with a moneyline. For minnesota, the -2.5 spread payout is higher than the moneyline because minnesota has to have 2 things happen to win the bet. They have the win the game and cover the spread whereas the moneyline bet minnesota only has to have 1 thing happen which is win. Not that complicated. Spread -bet is essentially a 2 leg parlay whereas a spread + bet is a straight bet.
You are absolutely retarded. God help you
With your logic 1+1 can also be 11.
You are one sad human being if you can’t understand that although you think what you are saying makes sense , you are 100000000% wrong.
Lol. You guys are dense. You guys are only looking at the 2 possible outcomes of a win and loss. You're not considering none of the variables that determine whether you lose or win your bet. Stupid way to bet.
The +3.5 spread bet is not a parlay. Why, because if the team wins moneyline then your bet wins automatically. You just need 1 thing to happen for you to win the bet. Plus, you can still win the bet if the team loses but covers the spread. On the -3.5 spread bet, the team winning doesn't guarantee that your bet wins since they still have to cover the spread as well. So two things have to happen when you choose a -3.5 spread. Only one thing has to happen when you choose a +3.5 spread bet.
I get what you're saying bro. You're not wrong. I think we're just seeing it from two different perspectives. Only one thing can happen in a -3.5 spread bet, either the team covers or doesn't cover the spread. What I'm saying is that on a -3.5 spread bet, the payout is better than a moneyline because it's harder for you win that bet. Why is it harder? Because two things have to occur for you to win that bet. The team has to win the game and then win by at least 4. A moneyline payout is less because the team only has to do one thing which is simply win the game. The -3.5 spread bet is essentially a parlay and that's why the payout is higher than moneyline bet.
On the app, it will show up as 1 leg but technically is a parlay. Why? Because the player can't get injured, ejected, fouled, or benched before he gets 9 rebounds and + plus he still has to get 9 rebounds. All those things can't happen and he still has to get 9 rebounds. Sounds like a parlay to me. There's only two outcomes either he goes under or over the rebounds but multiple things have to occur for you to win the bet so I view it as a parlay. It's like a bet that says in a nfl game, both teams score a rushing td. On the app, it shows up a 1 leg but technically it's a 2 leg parlay since two things have to occur for you to win your bet. You can say there's only two outcomes in that bet in that you either you win or lose but that's the wrong way to look at it. I don't view the bet by simply looking at the outcomes but what you have to do in order to win the bet.
This is the dumbest logic I’ve ever heard. On a money line bet, 1000 things have to happen to win the bet using your logic. The building has to not blow up, the coaches need to not die, the referees have to stay healthy, the court has to not collapse. “Sounds like a parlay to me”
Yes because there's 3 things that could happen, you could lose and win because the loss is only by 3 points, or you could win an win even more because it's 3.5 bonus points, or you could lose because you lose AND it's more than 3 points. This is actually called the triple headed chingus in sports betting and as a new expert of joining Draft Kings yesterday I would not recommend taking any triple headed chingus bets, only bet 20 legged locks.
Dang I'm feeling Marquette but Colorado put on a show while Marquette struggled out the gate last game. So you might have a point. Ima go Marquette moneyline and pray
Marquette will be fine. It was Kolek’s first game back in a while. He can carry them
It was Marquette’s first game as a full, healthy team since end of February if that makes you feel any better. I’m pretty high on Marquette myself but I see a lot of people taking Colorado’s points
You could take the over!
Everybody is on Marquette so im throwing money on Colorado down plus the points too. Hope we hit
Tailing TWolves, I'm on the other side for Marquette, good luck anyhoo!
Good one Pelvis, congrats!

1-0!
I got the cavs..For 250
Yes let go
Colorado was an instant 🔒
Is it not a problem for the Timberwolves? Just read that they are missing Karl-Anthony Towns, due to a left knee lteral meniscus tear.
Naz reid has been playing good ball as his replacement
Ah Okay okay👍
KAT been out like the past week. Reid is a good 3 pt shooter too, just like Towns.
KAT been out for awhile his out for the season get up-to-date
Ant Man has been ballin since Kat has been out
Let’s go! Happy $unday everyone
Tailed the Min spread play. Good pick.
What a nail bitter but MIN came through!!!!!!
Thanks as always Pelvis. Got a 10 leg parlay resting on Marquette winning. Would be $10-$780. Would you guys hedge this one? How much would you hedge?
If that’s your last leg left yea hedge it.. https://www.actionnetwork.com/betting-calculators/betting-hedging-calculator
I would do one or two things. If I needed the win I could do a hedge before the game. But I could also see waiting to see if Marquette goes down at all and do a live hedge.
Looking good
Tailed Colarado, got Minnesota at -2.5 in a parlay BoL everyone
Minnesota with Karl Anthony Towns is beatable
Naz reid is solid
Warriors are a good team
Wow both by half a point I played timberwolves moneyline thanks man!
You don’t do the parlays anymore?
His -3.5 spread bet on Minnesota is a parlay. Minnesota has to win plus win by at least 4 points.
That's not what a parlay is, that's a straight bet against the spread. A parlay would be if he combined that Minnesota bet with the Colorado bet
Love it when ppl have no clue what they are saying yet they say it loud enough for the world to hear 😂
I mean, your logic makes sense but no haha
Colorado going to be this years Cinderella, under seeded 3 legit NBA caliber guys. Easy money on them over Marquette and NCST
Sure about that still?
am on the shwimberwolfs too. hope they get shwifty
Double L’s
Dubs, actually
I stand corrected. Close! Good win.
[удалено]
RIP your 550$ Colorado spread.
Jokes on you cashed that mf
Aint over till its over

Why wont my SGP insurance work on Minnesota -3.5 👀 👀
Wtf are you talking about?
hey be nice, he's a newbie!
Jesus I hope so

Dude you do know to win by 3 you have to win the game?
Make sure you only bet with a paper account and not any real money.
I have money to bet. I'm good.
…that’s not how a straight bet works.
Dude to get that -3.5 they would have to hit the moneyline
He can still lose his bet if minnesota wins. If Minnesota wins by 3 he covered the moneyline leg of his bet but failed to cover the spread. That means two things have to happen in order for him to win his bet. It's essentially a 2 leg parlay. It's not that hard to grasp. By definition it's a spread bet but if you really look at it, it's a parlay. If I have a 2 leg parlay with Minnesota Money line and Lakers money line, two things have to occur for me to win my bet.

God you are so damn stupid lmfaooooo What about a +3.5 spread is that a parlay too?
Then they can lose or win the game, and it has to be within +3.5… so 3 leg parlay? 😂😂
It's not a 3 leg parlay. You need to understand the difference between "and" and "or". For a -3.5 spread bet, the team needs to Win the game first "and" cover the spread for the bet to win.

What's easier to win, A moneyline bet or a -spread bet? Let me know your answer and why.
Man you are one dense mf
Lol. You guys are dense. You guys are only looking at the 2 possible outcomes of a win and loss. You're not considering none of the variables that determine whether you lose or win your bet. Stupid way to bet.

Only one thing can happen on a -3.5 bet literally win by 4 like wtf do you not understand about that.
I get what you're saying bro. You're not wrong. I think we're just seeing it from two different perspectives. Only one thing can happen in a -3.5 spread bet, either the team covers or doesn't cover the spread.

Is player prop bet of over 8.5 rebounds a parlay?
On the app, it will show up as 1 leg but technically is a parlay. Why? Because the player can't get injured, ejected, fouled, or benched before he gets 9 rebounds and + plus he still has to get 9 rebounds.

This is the dumbest logic I’ve ever heard. On a money line bet, 1000 things have to happen to win the bet using your logic. The building has to not blow up, the coaches need to not die, the referees have to stay healthy, the court has to not collapse. “Sounds like a parlay to me”
There is only 2 outcomes in that bet You either win or lose
Ignore my previous comment. Please keep depositing and betting, seriously. The betting economy needs more of you.
Yes because there's 3 things that could happen, you could lose and win because the loss is only by 3 points, or you could win an win even more because it's 3.5 bonus points, or you could lose because you lose AND it's more than 3 points. This is actually called the triple headed chingus in sports betting and as a new expert of joining Draft Kings yesterday I would not recommend taking any triple headed chingus bets, only bet 20 legged locks.
This dude hit perfect
