Calm down. I'm not dumb. I'm trying to teach you something. Do you know what a parlay is? It's simply a series of all-in bets all rolled up into 1. Take a $100 4 steamer that pays 10-1 or 11-1 if you're lucky. If you just bet $100 straight and then bet it all the next leg straight and so on....at the end of 4 bets you have won $1228. Much better than $1000 or $1100. And that's at -110. You can likely get reduced juice on every leg, increasing the payout even more.
