    payouts are lower....not true odds.

    for example:-

    4 team parlay card pays 10 to 1
    regular 4 team parlay pays 12.283 to 1


    Also, you need to do minimum 3 teams in the parlay card.

    If several lines in the coollege football / NFL have moved, then parlay cards provide value instead of buying points in regular parlay.

    for example:-

    team A has moved from -6.5 to -7.5
    team B has moved from -2.5 to -3.5
    team C has moved from -9.5 to -10.5
    team D has moved from -13.5 to -14.5

    If you do regular parlay with A -130/B -130/C -130/D -130 i.e with buying 1 point in all them, it pays 8.798 to 1.

    Instead you can do parlay cards with A, B, C and D...all at original odds and get paid 10 to 1.

    Parlay cards are helpful if you can find 3 or more lines which has moved significantly since the opening line. Thats when they are profitable.
