I don't think you can bet Clemson -360 at $764 total.

 

[Dirty Jacket]

I don't think you can bet Clemson -360 at $764 total.

I don't know how this stuff works. Let me know if I broke a rule and I'll fix it. Otherwise, I will donate my $764 to the GTAA.

You need to confirm with @cyptomcat but I think you need to either remove Clemson from one of your bets or bet Clemson -10 in one of them. Appears you are violating rule #3.

Can you explain what your rationale is? I’m not a gambler so I genuinely don’t understand

From the Rules in the OP:
3. Minimum bet: $100. Maximum bet: $400 on any specific bet [even across multiple bets.]

You bet a specific bet, Clemson -360, across two bets, one $400 and one $364, for a total of $764 on one specific bet (Clemson -360).

@cyptomcat said yes to my previous comment. So, change one of your parlays.

If you have to bet Clemson, change one of them to Clemson -10 and refigure the parlay using -110 instead of -360.
(Clem -10 is betting Clem to win by 10 or more. Clem -360 is betting Clem to win by any amount.)
Btw, I have no skin in this game anymore, just trying to help you out.
