    What Is The Method With 3 Team Parlay To Break FP's Down To a 70% Return?

    Anyone care to explain this for me? If so, thank you.

    i dont know if this is serious or not

    but with 8 parlays you cover every possibility with the 3 games...so you cant lose..

    if you are using spreads/totals try to avoid whole numbers so you avoid the chance of a push

    Seems to me payoff would depend on which parlay u hit particularly with ML
    Betting on spread only I do not think it would pay for itself. $10 3-team pays 58.20 or so at 5 dimes cost would be 80 to cvr all 8.
    But if you bet money lines certainly could get an extreme ROI. But an all favs win with no dog win ---payout would not cover initial outlay.
    You would have to pick you bets so that you have a good chance of getting back wager. Still working that out in my mind. And that hurts so if anyone has progressed farther than I down this worm hole any insight appreciated...peace and money for all

    This thread is about maximizing FREE PLAY value, not about betting real money.
