It's easy to figure out what odds you should offer. Go to sportsbooks, figure out what the futures are for all three times, and add them up. Subtract an edge and offer it to him.

Well you said add them, I was wondering about some mystery futures betting math that I didn't know of ^^.

I could see 2, but 3 would be pretty improbable.

I think even with those crapy bodog odds, the parlay comes out to more like 70-1.

The Celtics are 22-1 to win the NBA at Wynn. A little low, but obviously better than the bodog stuff.

Celtics 5-1, LOL! You have to be a ridiculous homer to take that action.

Bodog:

Celtics: 5/1
Pats: 8/5
Sox: 7/2

Some how it's only 28 to 1. I honestly don't think it's possible b/c I don't believe in the Celtics just yet. I don't think they can beat a top 3 WC team in a 7 game series. The other two bets seem probable.

28-1 that is sick, i just dont see it happening, ty tho

This is 69.2-1, not 28-1.

Also, these aren't the true odds. Bodog juice is nasty on futures.

Add up their logarithms and exponentiate.
