I'm still a sports betting noob. Could someone explain parlays an why they are bad?
One bet relying on the winning outcome of two or more games to pay. Like Pro-line would only allow you to place bets on 3 games together. Get 2 of 3 right and you win 0.
I assume the payout is greater for a parley then 3 single game bets?
You got it....risk vs reward.
Standard is
Number Odds
2 Team Parlay 13 to 5
3 Team Parlay 6 to 1
4 Team Parlay 10 to 1
5 Team Parlay 20 to 1
6 Team Parlay 40 to 1
7 Team Parlay 75 to 1
8 Team Parlay 150 to 1
9 Team Parlay 300 to 1
10 Team Parlay 700 to 1
11 Team Parlay 1100 to 1
Hit my first 2 gamer on Euro with France and England. Pressed it all on Spain and France to win their next matches and no I'm not going to stop doing parlays, lol.
I enjoy gambling, weather it be playing cards, betting sports futures, prop bets, teasers or on a single game or making 2,3,4,5,6 etc parlays. Who the fuck are you to tell me not to bet a parlay. I earn a good dollar and I'll gamble it however I please. That also includes staking which has got to be the worst single form of gambling ever but I still do it. Go Spain!

Give me $10 and if you can guess 6 coin flips in a row I'll give you $400. Great deal right?
how about 4 flips?
