Is it true that you win a 49.98647 for 0.03223 bet?
I could not imagine that parlay can gives you a large profit what a good amount of bitcoin you win parlay..  i hope that i can be win to if i try parlay..

Parlays make your odds multiply, it adds up quickly even if it's only 12 matches. You can win up to 2^12 = 4000 times what you risk with 50/50 odds on every match.
But it would be like saying "I'm gonna toss a coin 12 times and it will be heads every time". Very unlikely.
Yes it's too hard to toss a coin 12 times and it will be heads every time like you said. You should have a magical luck to win this. By the way this man get 11/12. He is pretty close to win this bet, but unfortunatly for this one game lost.
Anyways, one day in the past i did a paraly with 22 events of football games which odds between 1.1-1.6 . I lost only one match.

At least you won something from the leaderboard contest of Nitrogensports. I would not take it very well if I lost only for 1 bet that huge winnings parlay. I would have quit gambling and become depressed or something like that. Glad that you didn't feel bad about it. I voted to keep trying and avenge that 50.000 dollars loss.

Even though you lost the parlay your betslip still reach the leaderboard of the parlay jackpot from nitrogen during that month. You lost but still won because of their monthly promotion still not bad if you ask me.  Wink

Ugh that's hurt man. only miss one match that make you not get 49btc but you only loss 0.03btc so forget it if not it can make you be crazy. Wink Sad
That reallly hurts you know that you almost touch that 50 btc in your hands and suddenly flew away because of just 1 game that really hurts on my part and would hardly move on but well we cant do anything about it and thats the thing why i hate parlays.

It's shitty, but that's the risk you take when doing this kind of parlays..

You only bet 0.03 bitcoin, so you didn't actually lose 50,000 USD, you just didn't win it.

Get over it and try to hit another run like this, but then make it.

What the ... , that's a very amazing parlay. You won't die jumping from first floor window, it will only hurt and add more problems such as medical bill etc. oh and i just noticed from the comment above that the betslip is a bit old, from january.

Mate.... YOU COULD WON 50 BTC ONLY WITH 0.03 BTC!!! Damnit, you just only lost in 1 bet ...
I never had parlays like you did, but i know the feel when you are really close with your winnings but it suddenly gone just because 1 single bet lose.
Keep trying mate, don't give up.

Edit: Is that your bet slip? It's already a bit old (January 29, 2017)

It is not exactly the same like tossing a coin but you need incredible luck for you to win a big parlay like this because it is hard to see a day without any upset and in the sports world anything is possible at a given day and i have being to similar situations where i lost just a single match a couple of days back in a parlay in different sites and missed out on a huge win,the risk is high but if you are lucky enough and you are interested in sports then you can try your luck in it.

no it's different.
your description could work for a dice game where technically you're really betting
"to toss a coin 12 times and it will be heads every time".
When you bet on a match despite there is the same odds, you can have different interpretation, eg. just hyped/dumped by some big whale.
So your bet could be a bit more lucky than just the odds. And I think this make the difference between bad/ good better, literally find a "value" bet. Because guess 12 results together it's harder at every odds!

Very true as it is very hard to win a parlay even a 5 leg parlay however even though it is hard sometimes they can pay off big time for a small amount of money bet. That is why many people play parlays for the chance to win big, the max I ever bet on a parlay is $50. The odds of winning a 12 leg parlay are small and very unlikely but there is the potential to win big.

Oh man that is very unlucky, that would of been an epic win my friend but it wasn't to be. A lot of sports books now let people cash out of their parlays if they feel they ain't going to win like bet365, sportsbet and a few others but we are yet to see this with any sportsbook that accepts Bitcoin. Because even if you did pull out after the first few legs you still would of made a good amount of profit. I have had this happen to me on many occasions where I have lost one leg in a parlay but never for a large amount like this so I can't imagine how you feel.

WOW!
IMPRESSIVE PARLAY!
Really really amazing! No other words then this.
I don't know what is your age or experience in betting.
But personally I think "long" parlay (more than 5-6 match with odds > 2.0) are really too risky and probably leads just to a lose.
Despite the high jackpot I think is not valuable in the long time.
Probably this type of betting ("long" parlay) could lead to a sort of addiction (find an high jackpot, add more events that you can, try to recover your loses....)

As a fellow hockey bettor first hats off for this amazing parlay. I think this one is eligible for the Nitrogen parlay leaderboard prize so did you win the first place? And yeah hockey is most of the time a wild roller coaster with very unexpected results so don't beat yourself too much over that because you have done the unimaginable as is and this is really a great achievement considering the amount of bets and the high odds.

No, something even more unimaginable happened a few days later right before the end of the month. Some random account a couple hundred digits off from mine won the parlay jackpot with a 7 team soccer DRAW parlay that lost by 1 with odds in the stratosphere.

Ouuuuch...

If I was you, I would have made a bet during the last 2 events to atleast profit 30 BTC out of this. Would not have believed my luck after winning so much in the first place. Still can't believe how do people accept this. I would totally flip.

Impossible to hedge this situation.

I think it is hard as most games started mostly at the same time, and you need to have some bankroll with you too.
And the main problem is don't think there is much option for live Hockey betting (maybe I am incorrect_)

Btw, OP...sad to see that just 1 game lost in that parlay.

True, thats always a risk. In a situation, when I am betting 30$ and about to win 50,000$, I would absolutely ask relatives or friends for money. But you are right about the games starting at the same time. That is always a problem.
