How to Figure BetGameDay.com Baseball Parlays
For each price or baseball betting odds quote on your teams, look at their
respective payoffs (to $1) and always add $1 to these payoffs. Multiply your bet
times the products of these payoffs (+$1) for your parlay return.
How to Figure BetGameDay.com Baseball Parlays Example:
A gambler can bet $50 on the Cardinals (-150) parlayed to the
Tigers (-130) Bet
Cardinals
Tigers
Return
(-150)
(-130)
$50 X 1.67 X 1.77 = $147.80
The return includes the $50 bet. The same method can be used for any number of
teams. All Baseball Betting Side Parlays are "action." Run Line &
Total selections within a gamblers parlay will be voided by
should there be a pitching change.
BetGameDay.com Baseball Betting Round Robin Parlays
offers Round Robin sports betting parlays. Round Robin sports
betting is simply a nickname for parlay betting on a group of selections (at
least three or more) that are to be included in a combination of individual
parlays. Placing wagers can be done very easily at , online or by
telephone. For instance, if a gambler asked for a $100,
three-team Round Robin with teams A, B, and C, the gambler is simply requesting
a two-team parlay with teams A and B, another parlay with teams A and C, and
another with teams B and C, for a total of 3 individual parlays, each for $100.
The total amount risked would be $300.
Round Robins get more complex as the number of teams increases. A
four-team Round Robin "by twos" for $100 would mean that the gambler wants four
teams to be included in a combination of two-team parlays. This would be a total
of six individual two-team parlays, for a total risk of $600. If the request is
for Round Robin sports betting "by threes,” it would include a total of four
possible combinations, for a risk of $400.
BatGameDay.com Baseball Betting Round Robin Parlays Example:
A gambler requests a $100 four team Round Robin "by twos", with
teams A, B, C and D. The possible combinations would be as follows:
Teams AB $100 to win $260
Teams AC $100 to win $260
Teams AD $100 to win $260
Teams BC $100 to win $260
Teams BD $100 to win $260
Teams CD $100 to win $260
If all four teams win, the gambler wins $1240, while risking only
$600! If one game loses, there is still a profit, even though three of the
parlays would lose. The three winners get back $780, plus the $100 laid for each
parlay, for a total of $1080. After subtracting $300 for the 3 losers, the
player profits $480! Just like in standard parlays, selections
from every league and sportsbook can be included! The maximum payoff for any one
parlay baseball betting wager shall be $50,000, whatever the stake, or
theoretical payout displayed elsewhere on sportsbook software.
