    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.

        I think Bread did this...got a bunch of Robyns and had them dance in circle or somthing... this is how he found the Robyn with the roundest bottom or somthing.....



        wait, is this a gambling question?

          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.
