    What type of betting is not allowed at sportsbooks??

    This maybe a dumb question, but am I allowed to a bunch of crazy moneyline parlays? Like 20 $10 bets of the moneyline in hopes of hitting a$10 to win $8000. Is this type of betting allowed.??

    a recent example discussed in another thread where a player took some teams to win their MLB games with the same teams to top their divisions
