As you may have noticed, the forum was offline for a period. We identified a security incident to Sportsbook Review Forum and took the site offline as a containment step while we investigated.
We wanted to make sure the system and site were restored and secured before bringing things back online and you will see that we are requiring all forum users to reset their password as a precautionary step.
If you have any questions, our moderators are around and happy to help where they can.
Why not just parlay each separately? Is this is same time? I don't think it pays any more either..
thanks.

Convenience. Easier just to round robin it than taking every possible combination and single them out and parlay them.

What Panic said. It is the exact same thing with the exact same payout. It's just easier to play multiple parlays at the same time.

Say I have 8 plays, at nickel limits. Betting straight up, I can risk a total of 4k.
With RRs, I can bet (8 2) = 28 2-team parlays for a nickel, and another (8 3) = 56 3-teamers.
28 + 56 = 84. So instead of limits * 8, I get Parlay limits * 84... 10 times the volume. This is key if you are beating the crap out of bad numbers or weak openers.

Assume you win 54% of all your picks.
Assume you have a bankroll of 1000, versus limits of 1
Or make it 1m bank versus 1k limits (same ratio)
It's all about how much you can bet. If you win long-term, your money will grow until you cannot bet what you want.
