Week 3 NFL Single Bet #1: Baltimore Ravens to beat Dallas Cowboys (Moneyline, Odds: +5.80)

Step-by-Step Plan for Re-Investing $50 on FanDuel

1. Single Bets for Safer Returns

Let’s start with two single bets. This reduces the risk compared to a parlay, and single bets can give you steady returns.


Single Bet #1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Denver Broncos

  • Prediction: Tampa Bay Buccaneers to win (Moneyline)
  • Odds: -1.60
  • Bet: $20
  • Potential Payout:
    $20 x 1.60 = $32

Single Bet #2: Philadelphia Eagles vs. New Orleans Saints

  • Prediction: Philadelphia Eagles to win (Moneyline)
  • Odds: -7.60
  • Bet: $15
  • Potential Payout:
    $15 x 1.13 = $16.95

2. Build a Small 2-Leg Parlay for Bigger Returns

Next, let’s take a calculated risk with a 2-leg parlay to boost your potential payout. Here, we’ll focus on two strong teams that are predicted to win with higher probabilities.


2-Leg Parlay: Baltimore Ravens + Detroit Lions

  1. Baltimore Ravens to beat Dallas Cowboys (Moneyline, Odds: +5.80)
  2. Detroit Lions to beat Arizona Cardinals (Moneyline, Odds: -0.60)
  • Bet: $15
  • Combined Odds: +320
  • Potential Payout:
    $15 x 3.20 = $48

3. Potential Total Profit and Strategy

If these bets hit, here's what your returns could look like:

  • Single Bet #1: $32 (Profit: $12)
  • Single Bet #2: $16.95 (Profit: $1.95)
  • 2-Leg Parlay: $48 (Profit: $33)

Total Profit:

If all bets win, your $50 will turn into $96.95, giving you a profit of $46.95, just shy of what you need to cover your previous loss. From here, you can reinvest some of these winnings to keep building.

Risk Management:

  • The single bets are your safe plays to recover some initial capital with lower risk.
  • The parlay offers a higher risk but a higher reward to make up for the loss.

FanDuel Tip:

  • Watch the odds closely before placing bets – if the odds shift in your favor, it could increase your profit potential.
  • Cash-out early: If you’re winning the first part of your parlay, consider using FanDuel’s cash-out feature to lock in profits early.

With this plan, you’ll have a balanced strategy of safer single bets and a riskier parlay, maximizing your chances to make a solid comeback from your initial loss. Let me know how this works for you!
