Owen, Bottom 10% on OF @oweraj.bsky.social · 09/10/2025Parlays can be good for bettors, but you have to be smart. Don’t bet based on what you think will happen. Instead, look for errors in models. Models are built by stats people, not people who understand the sport. Also, parlays flag you as an unsophisticated bettor so you won’t get limited. 110

J @fredbeans1.bsky.social · 09/10/2025Literally every Saturday and Sunday know my twitter feed is inundated with parlay betting slips. I have finally learned my lesson since it's clear the sportsbooks want us to bet them for a reason 010
