    Why do 90% of parlays lose by one team?
    I can't figure this out for the life of me. 90% of parlays I see posted anywhere on the entire internet lose by one team.

    But at the same time, if you'd have played the teams as single bets, they'd have gone 3-6.

    It feels like there are supernatural forces at work here. Negative energy which follows your plays.

    The same is true for when you decide to one day go extra big on a play, 5 or 6 times more than your regular bet. 90% of the time you lose those. It should be 50-50, but it is 90%. Then when you go back to betting small, you win.

          Seems that way but when your betting EXTRA BIG, your usually on a chasing spree thus you only focused on winning back your losses. in this scenario every game looks appealing so your probably not capping as good as if you had won your previous wager.

                        I have pondered this as well as many other losing scenarios and I am at a loss. Literally and figuratively!

                          Oddly enough it was 1,2,3,9 for the super think it was race 2 I bet $5 on the 1 to win at 14-1 and got that but the super paid the real money and I had 1,2,3 and 10 maybe? triple paid like $770 for a dollar super paid like 27k and i walked away with $60 minus all my losing bets, maybe netted like $40

                            Easy, because it always comes down to one team. A parlay is a string of 1 teams winning. How many people regularly go say 6-0 or 7-0 in a day. Not often. If you have one day like that a week you are doing superb.
