My friend and I are in a huge debate about whether it's good to parlay a heavy fav to every favorable game or to bet on the specific game individually...i say that it's better to just bet the game indiviaully whereas he'd rather parlay the game to many other games to get a better payout...any thoughts??
Hey, I have opinions on just about everything, though I'm not an authority on anything. Having said that, I would say that your odds on the parlay are generally worse than on the straight-up single game plays. But if I see a game where one team is heavily favored and RIGHTLY SO, I will consider pairing it with another STRONG favorite or two. I believe that I have a winning MLB parlay record this season, but I pick and choose my spots. NEVER say NEVER and NEVER say ALWAYS. I rarely play more than 3 at a time.
Many have a distaste for playing heavy favorites straight-up. That's where parlays interest me the most.
Good Luck!
