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!
