3 game parlays, anymore than that and you have no chance of being successful.

Yes & NO.. I here ya some FIRM answer.. But my favorite is IF plays.. Put the KEY team on top & ONLY if it wins does the second team go. Parlays can fit into a players attack & i would only use when i have books $$ & NOT to be a HOMERUN blast to get me fast to the top. Again with all BIG payout plays they get a TON of attention . If u have control & at the correct time there is a place for them but if you dont have that blueprint to use them you can dig a hole from NO return''

if you hit a consistent high percentage they can be
also, there's certain games where the underdog/favorite can be parlayed with the total if you think they have to play a certain style to cover

looks like s**t but you can see it.
I believe you can find value if you look at 2-3 major sports and pick one or two plays from each. say an O/U and a side/ml/ ats play from two diff sports. The hardest thing Ive found over the yrs is to make 3 or more consistent calls in any 1 sport.

in the last month i have been picking 3-4 big favorites in a parlay. with that u usually get 2 to 3 times your wager. i have been hitting 75% which has made me a ton of money. im still not sure if its luck or a good system but im gonna keep going with it until it fails me. today i went 4-5 risking 100 dollars each. won just under 2 grand which is way more than i ever won in a day! i usually play 4 parlays for 25 bucks a pop a day.
