rarely ever bet parlays offshore but last year during football season i was up a nice chunk off one of my locals and bet a parlay ticket with him. one of those street tickets that come in a strip with college and pro foots and payout odds on the back. picked 4 teams, 2 college, 2 pro and layed 500 on it. all 4 games won and the odds was 1 to 9. was paid 4,500 the following week.
the next week i played one for 10 teams. all pushes were losers. have to win all games, with the exception of playing 10 teams. you can hit 9 out of 10 and still cash. ended up hitting 8 games with one push and one loss. the last game on the ticket was the one that pushed. layed 100 on that, but would have cashed for 2 dimes had the last one won rather than push.
