Need Expert Advice Please

I am considering a 3 game parlay tonight. I am either going to do a total or a spread. This is through the Canadian Lottery so the odds may look different!

PHI/MIN 4.5 O
DET/SJ 5.5 U
CHI/VAN 5.5 O
pays 5 to1


PHI to win
DET to win
VAN to win

Pays 3.05to1

Every team has to win by 2 goals on the point spread so that is why I will just pick the teams to win and not by 2 goals. The 3 spread games would pay 4to1.

Thanx for your help and which looks better. I really like Van and Det tonight and PHI should win at home./

Which is better though:

The spread or
The Total???????

I would take all 3 to win straight up. Leave alone that 2 goal win stuff. GL

Thanx for the article. I tried betting off-shore through SportBet but my unfortunately did not like the idea of an off-shore account and now I'm back to the Canadian Sport Select Lottery. It is actually pretty decent if you like parlay's. Sometimes it is a great advantage playing a team NOT to lose by 2 goals in a given game. A 3 game O/U parlay pays 5 to 1 which is ok and proline you never know. I know that playing 2 games would be an advantage for myself but I also enjoy the entertainment of it all as well.

Which game tonight is most likely to tie. A tie on sports lotteries in Canada pay 6.75 to 1 alone.

My Guess is Phi/Min 1-1 2-2

Min/Phi tie is probably the best chance.
It pays 4.00 in Ontario proline.
I took the tie with Det and Van wins.

Hey Vince,

What does that Pro-line pay? If I did Phi/Min to tie and Det and VAN to win it would pay like this

PHI/Van Tie 6.75
Det 1.5
Van 1.4

=14.175 to 1 x $5 =70.88
PHI to win
Det to win
Van to win

=3.045 to 1 x $15 =45.76

 

[VMAHARAJ]

Pays the same way.
Odds seem to be different.

Min/Phi tie 4.00
Det W 1.55
Van W 1.4

I use offshore but play the proline for fun.

FWIW.........the over/under in Ontario Pro Line can be mighty good at times.......same holds true for point spread College B Ball......

but overall Ontario Sport Select stinks.........but I will admit the Western Canada Sport Select isn't that bad......I remember winning 100-1 parlay once when I was in Winnipeg

good luck to ya............

(and if ya hate offshore so much.......try sportsinteraction it's based in Quebec)
