Largest parlay or round robin payout for you?

[Hawaiiguy]

Been doing round robins by 3's, sometimes 4's (5 to 8 teams, depending what I like) for MLB.....

For the first half of this season, it has been pretty good. I actually find that I lose less with more upside...

Before, I would lay about $300 to $500 a game.....So in a day, I could have $4,000 in action going...and those 1 win-7 loss days happen.....(-3,000)


Due to time constraints, I may throw a $500 round robin and not even be able to see any games.......

Most days, hit 3 to 5 of 8. 4 of 8 (parlays by 3) returns almost all the money, with some plus money games (which is breakeven as if I were straight betting anyway...)

But I also have had several 6 and 7 winners of 8 games......

In total for the first half, I have cashed out $18,000......and not a single day did I worry about the games.....heck, if I lost all 8, no big deal compared to straight betting......

Thoughts? Anyone with some big payouts?

Hit a 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 team College basketball parlay in the same day. Thats how I would play them back then. Start with 12, take two off and increase $$ as I went. I was on quite the roll that season. Won over 6 figures that day, but hit the max allowable for the site and they cut my winnings by more than half (an over six figure cut). Those were their rules, $100K weekly max. I complained, why they would allow me to place a bet that was over their limit, etc etc and they compensated me with 15k for my trouble. Sportsbook.com wired the funds back then, I was nervous about it until they hit my account. They used to have a top ten winners up on their site, and I sat at the top for two months.

Everyone has their opinion on parlays, but they worked for me. This was 10 years ago in February. I've scaled back considerably from that process, I don't have the time I had back then.

I love the round robins. As much as I harass people in my threads about betting high chalk in MLB in my opinion you really do have to use the parlay to be consistantly successful. I too love the fact that in a round robin parlay the loss/risk factor is constant. If you go a round robin of 4 games and break it into groups of 4 and 3 for 2 units each you can't possibly lose more than 10 units. And that's whether you have a 50/50 day or get completely wiped out. With the chalk I risk even going 2-2 results (at 2 units each single game -180) in a loss on average of 3+ units. Go 1-3 and I lose -8+ units. A complete wipeout 0-4 can get me for 14+ units and yes it does happen (to everyone). If you can find and hit round robin parlays with the odds at the normal -110 or so (football, baskets etc.) you can make an entire season profitable in just one day.

Biggest payout for me was going 8 for 8 in a round robin groups of 8, 7, and 6 that netted around +400 units which is $40,000 in a single day. GL

I hit a 8 team CBB parlay this past winner, won about $1500 but that's about it for me, don't play parlays as much as I'd like to

never understood your high juice plays, but now that I am doing round robins it definitely makes it more plausible...May start throwing some in... Ty wire

Interesting read above. I may start looking at this. This brings back memories

Some time back(years), I had a 12-team baseball parlay the went 11-1. The payout was over 22k for a 100.00 dollar bet if it would have won. I had Randy Johnson on the last game with a 4-2 lead after 8 innings. The closer comes in for the ninth and blows the game with a 3 run shot.. Would have been a great year in a day.

I hit a two-teamer back on the 2nd that paid +1130. Took a picture of it:

I love throwing +100 into an open two-team parlay. I have these two going with Argentina left as the second leg:
