    You can miss one or two and still win a little something, with reduced payouts if you do hit. Is it something you can do long term or just a gimmick. I played a 3 teamer last night, would have won 350 on a normal parlay but 225 with an almost parlay. If one leg loses or pushes I get the wager back on almost parlay, lose it all on a regular parlay. Am I sacrificing too much on wins or am I benefiting more on losses?

        If you push a 3 team parlay, it should reduce to a 2 team parlay (Not lose). So you are probably getting what you would of won anyway. As for losing 1 leg of the parlay and getting some cash back, Well that is a Win/Win situation for you.. Is this at Youwager? If so dont forget to spin the wheel today for your freeplay..

                    If you don't feel like you can win every game in a parlay, then don't pick it. No point in sacrificing value

                      Shit happens. No one picks any parlay they think will lose.
