If you played Twenty Eight 6 team parlays how many would you win

If you were able to win 1 of 28 you would be up.

If each bet is a 50/50 bet you'd win .5^6 = 1.56% of the time, which is quite a bit less than 1/28th.

As Durito pointed out, you'd win one out every 64 on average. And what does a 6-teamer pay (far below the 63-1 odds you need to break even--I'm sure)?

That is sorf of betting strategy ?

The clear solution is to bet 10 team parlays instead.

None, but par 5's maybe, manage to hit 2 of those in one month, but countless of 1 misses.

I have a few tonight in NBA that are looking great at halftime

Straight bets at low juice (MB) are so much better.
