    Boost parlays with pushes
    I have been keeping track of boosts and came across this one on BOL from Friday: 11/19/21 SDS@UNLV (41) & MICH@UNLV (135) OVER: Was +264 NOW +300
    Football went over and basketball pushed. Now, on a normal parlay that makes it single-action but what's the payout with the boosted odds; how do you figure it out? Or is it graded as a no play? Just messaged BOL too but figure I'd ask here as well.

    Very good question. If you stretch out the odds, looks like EVEN $$ (+100).

    Think about it. Normal -110/-110 parlay pays out about +264. Math is (11/21)^2 = .274. 1/.274 = 3.64 = +264.

    If you're saying that you pushed the 1st leg of your boost...then the remaining leg should be +100. Assuming they don't have another rule.

    Hope that makes sense. And GL.

      So, I'm saying a Boosted parlay sounds a lot like a No-juice play.

      Fair odds would be (1/2)^2 = .250. 1/.25 = 4.00 = +300 odds.

      Strip out the push. Remaining play should be 1/2 = 2.00 = +100 (even $$).
