    Parlays on Regular Season Win Totals
    I used to be with Bowman's. Does anyone use a sportsbook that takes parlay wagers on regular season win totals? I would definitely appreciate anyone who has this kind of information. Thanks. I missed out on the MLB seaon, but the NFL is coming up very soon.

    I believe 5 Dimes does. I just experimented by creating a parlay ticket including NFL Props, and it looked like the parlay would have gone through had I confirmed the bet. If props were not parlayable, they would not be included in the parlay options, i.e., reduced juice plays.

      5Dimes parlay software is shoddy. There are all kinds of illegal parlays you can sneak through. Eventually they will catch you and void them.

        Ricky,

        Agreed that parlaying game and half of same game is shoddy, and based on your comment, I assume that would go through undetected. However, there is nothing wrong with parlaying futures, so seaborn would be OK.

          It is a related bet, that most places won't take. SIA used to take it.( wins total).

            Let me clarify, UNRELATED future parlays should be OK. Parlaying several teams' win totals sounds legitmate. Parlaying one team's win total with that same team to win the conference, not so much.

              there's some relation to bets like NYY over parlayed to Bosox under, and with NFL same division teams, stuff like that.

              If booking I'd have no problem with an AL team and an NL team parlayed to a wins total as an example

                Anyone know any other books other than 5 Dimes?

                  I don’t know of any, and I’d even contact 5 Dimes to make sure they’re intentionally allowing these. Otherwise you’re at risk of having the bets cancelled when they figure out their software didn’t block them.

                  These can be strongly correlated, so I wouldn’t expect books to intentionally allow them. Think about four team parlays of teams in the same division that play each other twice in a short season. You can pretty much rule out four Overs or four Unders, leaving the other combinations to hit far more than chance.

                      I'm looking for more information on ML/RL parlays. Who has these?

                      Also, 1H/Game parlays.

                      Please help.

                        1st half and game is an illegal parlay that no book offers, if any do, the player would never tell you. Its like parlaying a fav - the points to ML ( can't do it).

                            anybody offering it would get killed

                            you can't play say SA Spurs -3 -110 parlayed to -160 ( or whatever it would be) ML.

                            If they cover the 3, the ML is aready a winner. No book can offer this bet, they would get crushed.

                              Nobody, same as the NBA example.

                              Do you mean RL to total ? A few places still allow that.

                                  be careful betting that parlay. The book can cancel if it wins,keep it if it loses, re-grade it as ML only winner...pretty much whatever they want to do.

                                      Yeah, that's a good bet. Where can I do this?
