Parlays are a rip-off, mathematically. unless they make a mistake with the odds you might as well lay separate bets. If you believe the odds then you're getting paid what you risk (minus the 4.54% juice).
A long time ago I used to do NFL picks for someone and they would always try to convince me what a great deal this 3 bet parlay was. I tried to explain it to him but he kept telling me --- 'but they pay 5:1'. I'm like dude, you're picking 3 teams who's odds, when MULTIPLIED equal 8:1 --- that's like getting taken for 37% of your money. Didn't matter --- he still wanted to do it.
