Hi I have a simple system I take the top 2 favorites in the NHL and parlay them. Currently aheas about 14 units. Sometimes I play them PL but no real system for that part. Am looking for something similar in the NBA? any thoughts? thanks

From back tracking this system here are the numbers from this NHL season:
42 parlays won
51 parlays lost
(38 times, 1 leg lost, 13 times, both legs lost.
So your at 45% betting the top 2 favs every nite. So it all depends on the prices your getting. For instance if your top 2 favs are priced at -240, and -240, your parlay will get you even money. You'll have the occasional nites when a small card will get you a decent price, but this seems like a grind it out strategy. Noticed some long losing streaks early in the year, so i'm thinking a progressive style of betting could be disasterous. Seems like this system sucks early, but gets better as the year goes on. Some numbers from the 07-08 season:
parlays won: 81
parlays lost: 107 ...43%
BOL, if your numbers are different, please show some evidence. The numbers could be skewed, depending on the book and where your lines are coming from.

Hi Thanks for the data. I do not bet games unless at least one team is -175 or more and the other has to be over 1.50. I am ahead around 17 units ty. even betting no martingales. as a result of the mininum number there are somedays no bets. what is happening is the odds have been going up in Jan so where I was getting 13-10 now I get 11-10 or sometimes less. San J was 380 the other night. some night where there is a say 250 and then 2 200 teams i split it and make 2 parlays 1/2 unit each. regards bob

noticed comment about MLB it seems to work later rather than earlier. I am thinking of for MLB to bet the first 5 innings on teh idea that the stud pitchers should do well early and i dont have to worry about the bullpen I think Halliday for toronto had several losses due to the bullpen type thing. regards heart222
