OK: this sounds crazy, but I'm gonna do a super-parlay thread. For this year, I will be trying to find games which I think are really good and are worth rolling the winnings + original stake over. This will make it essentially a parlay, because if ANY leg loses, I'm out the original investment of $100.

I will start with an initial buy-in of $100. I will stick it all on the first play; if it wins, then I will stick all the winnings + the original investment onto the next play...and so on and so on.

My goal for this is $5000 by the time I'm done. This will NOT be a quick thing; just check the thread yearlong. It will take MANY plays.

Anybody is welcome to do this with me. If you don't want to do it for $100, just do it for $10 or something, and if I'm successful, you'll have $500 at the end of it. But if you don't want to, that's cool too. This is kind of a "just for fun" type of thing, so don't go crazy.

This one super-parlay will NOT be part of my normal record. It's just for fun, to see if I can do it.

I'll be frank; odds are this $100 will be lost at some point before I reach $5000. This is NOT easy.

But hey: sometimes you gotta just live a little.
Last time, I lost on the VERY FIRST PLAY, taking NE and ARI I think in teasers, and having NE at -2.5. NE won by 2

Well, let's hope that doesn't happen again.

I will be waiting 'till later to find the best line, but right now, it looks like the best line around will be:

Denver -2.5 (-105) @ Bodog
$100 risked to win $95.65


Current Parlay Balance: $100

We'll see where we go from here.
