Parlay

Parlay

Basic Betting

Definition

A wager combining multiple picks; all must win for the parlay to pay out. Because each leg must hit, parlays offer higher payouts but lower probability of winning.

Formula

Decimal odds multiply together for each leg (overall implied probability is the product of leg probabilities).

Example

A **parlay** of two bets – e.g. Canelo to win *and* the fight Over 8.5 rounds – will pay significantly more than either bet alone, but both outcomes must occur to collect.
