Only issues is it would sound so sad and pathetic no one would believe it’s real and donate.
But good luck with that $10 parlay pal. And again I hope things turn around for you.
Rather than render a personal opinion, I will once again quote court testimony from the (first) trial of the late, great Mike Stockunas. When his assistant was placed on the stand, the prosecuting attorney asked him to explain under oath what kinds of bets he took over the phone for Stockunas. The assistant answered that the majority of the bets were parlays. The assistant DA then asked if the witness could explain to the jury what a parlay was. "Sure," Stockunas' assistant said, clearing his throat, "it's a really stupid bet." Which brought loud laughter in the courtroom and the judge had to hit the gavel and order some order.
That's not to say there aren't rare opportunities when parlays can be a good bet, but for reasons having nothing to do with parlays. For example, one offshore of which I'm aware, grades your rebates on the basis of number and types of bets. Since the size of the bets is not a factor, it makes sense to bet a boatload of $10 parlays as a way to boost your profile from 1/2 percent rebate straight play disciplined gambler to 1 to 2 percent rebate degenerate idiot. In that context, it makes a lot of sense to inundate them with a couple hundred $10 parlays if your actual straight wagers are generally $1000 or more.
All you have to do to understand this stuff is request a sports "slot" club payout card from Boyd. You can see that they are begging you to bet parlays. I'm sure monet is aware of the way Boyd scales their cashback for the parlay players. Boyd is not doing that for the players' benefit. LOL.
And once again I will mention that Shackleford's "parlay calculator" was the most oxymoronic "edge" one could ever get. I can't believe they were actually pushing that at WoV. Some offshores are so generous that they are now providing customers with parlay calculators gratis. Again, I'm sure that's for the customers' benefit.
