If you're not a pick 6 player then why are you arguing something you don't know about?? There are a lot of pick 6 players on this board, me included, that know the intracacies of the bet. Also, your friend is wrong. I reviewed the last month of results (since the jackpot has been $750k+.) The parlay value on Saturday was 5.12. There was only one day that was higher, 4/7, at 5.12 as well. The average parlay multiplier was 3.01. The majority of the days paid less than 3.0x, including similar price days that paid 1.85x, 1.22x, 2.44x, and 2.67x. In essence, Saturday's payout was 2-3 times what it should have been. THAT IS THE REASONING BEHIND PLAYING THE BET THAT DAY. TWICE THE ROI THAN EXPECTATION. Friday's, in comparison, was 2.67x- very close to the median. But since you are a PhD candidate, that explanation probably doesn't make sense.
