    The help section in your sportsbook should have good explanations. Try there.

    A parlay is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers and is dependent on all of those wagers winning together. The benefit of the parlay is that there are much higher payoffs than placing each individual bet separately since the difficulty of hitting it is much higher. If any of the bets in the parlay loses, the entire parlay loses.

    The two basic types of IF bets are IF Action and IF Win. Action Reverse falls under the IF Action category. Unlike parlays and straight bets, there is no need to re-invest the total money won by a bettor in the succeeding games in IF Action. In an IF Action bet, there is always an action on the subsequent wager whenever the first wager wins or pushes. For instance, the bettor places US$110 to win US$100 on Team Panda in game A. If this wager wins or pushes, the wager made on Team Civet in game B has an action. If this wager wins or pushes, a wager on Team Tiger in game C has action. However, if any of these wagers loses, all wagers made are considered No Action.

    An Action Reverse is simply a pair of IF Action bets. This type of wager is made by placing an IF Action bet in a reverse manner of a previous IF action wager. To make things simpler, an Action Reverse wager goes this way: if Team Panda wins or pushes then there is an action on Team Civet. Likewise, if Team Civet wins or pushes, then there is an action on Team Panda. Here is a sample of a 2 play Action-Reverse wager:

    A wager of US$110 to win US$100 on Team Panda in Game 1 is placed. If this wager wins or pushes, the wager on Team Civet in Game 2 has an action.
    AND:
    A wager of US$110 to win US$100 on Team Civet in Game 2 is placed. If this bet either wins or pushes, the bet of US$110 to win US$100 on Team Panda in Game 1 has action.

    If all wagers made wins, a bettor will get US$400, however, if all wagers made loses, the bettor will also lose US$220. Moreover, if only one of the wagers made wins, the bettor will take home US$100 only. In a nutshell, an Action Reverse bet is made by bettors because it gives them the chance to win twice the amount of their expected winnings in two games.
