    5 Team Parlay Vs. Straight Up Betting Experiment - Which Is Better Long Term?

    I've tried starting this before, but I have a new job and more time on my hands to do this daily. Will keep my numbers updated here.

    Nov 17 NFL [452] DETROIT +7-105
    Nov 17 NFL [455] ATLANTA +4-115
    Nov 17 NFL [457] JACKSONVILLE +2½-105
    Nov 17 CBB [834] WISCONSIN -140
    Nov 17 CBB [868] VIRGINIA MILITARY +3-105

    Parlay = 1 unit for 22.85

    Betting heavy favorites means you better hit 65% of your straight up bets at least

    House take way to high on parlays, especially probably is as exotic as five teams.

    You're better off betting straight.

    I think Parlays would work better, Used it in Egypt Premier League and I could’ve make 10K instead of 504$ last season!

    so I decided to go all-in system for straight 10 plays (only huge guaranteed) to make something huge!
