How many picks do you usually include?
Is the bet amount same/more/less than your single bets?

I want to hear others thoughts..

I like to bet usually 2-3 teams and mostly double my base bet. Only do these when I'm really confident about the parlay.

I usually don't parlay, as I think it's too risky sometimes. Sometimes I do parlay when I think all the teams I include in my parlay have a good chance of winning, and my bet amount is usually smaller than normal, but sometimes if I feel confident it's higher.

I usually just make some straight bets. But when I have little idea for the day, I sometimes just make a parlay on two or three strong favorites.

Most of the time parlay get loss because of one bet, so it is safe that you earn less but  bet individually which will be more profit, but even then when confident i go with 2 or 3 bets in parlay not more than that because that will be more safe for winning.

I usually choose 3, 5 teams to parlay the bet is not more than 0.01 BTC total odds @9 / @15 but almost never win  :D
only 1 of 10 parlay win and victory is not always full from 5 team 4 wins 1 draw. you should not try if you do not really understand
or to experiment should bet with a bit BTC possibly 0.0005 / 0.001 BTC.

Actually it is hard to predict using parlay, you need to choose guarantee winning odds so that you can make more and win it. But nowadays there are so many odds that hard to predict and it makes parlay is a little bit harder to use. So if I can say there is no need strategy on it, just to choose low odds. This will almost gurantee your parlay ;D

Four or five teams max in a parlay.

A lot of people say parlays are bad and to just bet straight but there are situations where you can really get paid for low risk amount. The 10-20 leg parlays are literally like lottery tickets though.

Before putting picks i review first the teams and their current situation like if theres a player injured or not playing before putting them in my parlay. The bet amount i put is just dusts so that even if it lose it doesnt hurt my wallet

It's depend of my bet, if i bet small i usually include 5-10matches and if i bet big i pick 2-5 matches. and of course you need research about that match first. and actually in parlay i rarely pick that have odds 2.00, i pick odds below 2.00.

Quite a few times I won on parlay betting but it is a hard job to choose right teams and then to get some profit from it.I usually try to pick high chances odds without caring of team.The chances on parlay off course increase when it consists minimum teams .

Exactly what always I did, make parlay 3-4 teams with odds average 1.3 each usually total odds around 2.xx to 3.xx .
When I lost I double the bet in next parlay plan. My straight lost so far only 5 times in a row. Not bad records for me.

familiar, having taken their opportunities and the amount you stand to lose count on what rates larger or smaller and how many of them will be under conditions of loss, but the calculation of such need in order to lose large amounts, but the gamble feature is not active, because luck rarely large, the output is very good entertainment, like to go to the movies, for example, although

As many matches as I know, minimum 5 matches with minimum odds of 10.00 . As what we all wish from parlay bets, win as much as possible with small bet. Of course it is risky, but if we win we will get nice amount :)

I used to make parlays that included around ten games. I got a few nice returns but was sick of one or two games keep letting me down. Now I just bet between 2-5 if I parlay. It is always less when I acc than when I bet singly as you obviously don't have as much chance and can still win nice anyway#.

My strategy is to pick 3 games - one with low odds (1.2-1.5) most of the time tennis.
The other two games are basketball and most of the time soccer with draw no bet.
Sometimes I make it 2/3

usually i do a parlay for only 3 or 4 teams and mostly i placed my parlay for the big teams although the odds not so big but sometimes i won it
and total of odds if i do parlay is around @3.xx-@4.xx

I don't bet on parlay. To me, they are rather risky as even clear favourites won't win in a bad day. I would go for a straight bet at a time.

Today I put 8 team parlay bets Serie A and Primera Division 2 team has won remaining 6 teams again only bet 3K dogecoin
I do not use a specific strategy let alone subscribe to a premium group just based on the records of each team match and search for the information of players who are injured because it affects the performance of the team

There is no strategy for parlay. When I was younger I used to do parlay bets a lot - it was appealing that I could win x10000 for 8 good predictions.
But it is extremely hard to predict couple matches in a row and I never won big money. So I found hard way that  there is no strategy for parlay - You are just picking your teams and pray.

My strategy on parlay bet, i always pick 1 team with low odds from every league. not only football sometimes i combine with basketball,tennis. I would make 3 games and put big amount, this strategy still working for me.

I once set my target to getting the "Parlay Jackpot" on Nitrogensports, and kept making parlays with many legs and high odds. I just failed again and again, and I gave up on it understanding how hard it is. Now I only make parlays with at most 3 legs and with moderate odds.

I lay my parlay strategies depending on the priority of my favorite teams and their chances of winning.My first team is or match would be the one that I'm very sure of the outcome,this has my highest bet.My second bet goes with half the money I used for first one and I usually bet on the team with high odds on this one.3rd bet will be on the team which has 50% chances of the winning as I'm confident of.This has twice the money as second and equal to first.

Bet favorite + over, dog + under, try to get ~3:1 odds+. 1 unit = 1% of Bankroll, ex. $1,000 bankroll, you are betting $10 per correlated parlay. Been using this for a long time and doing very well. Don't ever bet more then 3 games on a parlay if you want to pick a bunch of money lines.

Honestly i dont know how to use parlay because im noob in sportsbetting i am looking for step by step tutorial how to use parlay...
Im so really confuse in parlay about Toto bets result in a push that will reduced your winning odds. its ver confuse to me..

Seems to be a good idea.But if you lose the first two matches and win the third one,still you're suffering a loss situation.Or if you win the first and third and lose the second one,you reach a break even .So for you to actually win some money,you might have to win all the matches or either win the first and the second consecutively .

wow, some nice wins there sir!
very well done.



And one more question for you guys..Do you guys usually bet parlay cross-sports? or stick with one league? I always find myself focusing on a single sport/league when making parlay bets.

I saw your bets all of them are esport. Is it the same with basketball or soccer? Seems like with low odds esport is a guarantee win only a little chance of losing with low odds

I do not have a target of how many teams should I choose when making a parlay. all depends on the game that I think will be easy to win.
last my parlay http://prntscr.com/9n1sdf

I'm usually using 2/3, 3/4 or 4/5 parlays depending on the games. This allows me to show profit or at least to get my money back with one error.
Mainly on soccer and NBA.

I prefer to make the maximum 5 team/parlay, if too many teams too risky and I always lose.

but I also like to make more of 5 team/parlay depending on the match.

I have usually 2 types of parlays long-shot parlays where there is no limit on the possible odds or number of bets in the parlays and the odds may be as high as 100+. Now on the other hand I have these 'safety' parlays where I do between 3 and 5 bets and the odds run below 10 but have a higher chance of actually hitting something. The stake amount is 1% of the bankroll per parlay.

What do you mean long shot? So you will always make it to 100x? And how many parlay that you make then? some match give you 30x odds. Did you pick on that? Or you pick so many team with low odds? Like 20 team hit 100x. Is that what you mean?

I always make two types of parlay, first parlay safe with little risk, such as 1-3 teams with odds of around 2 with amount of bets is quite big and parlay the risk of making big odds around 100-1000 with small bets.

I have two parlay strategy and I make parlay on soccer match only due my knowledge about soccer good enough. Occasionally make a parlay between soccer, ice hockey, american football , tennis and basketball.

here are my parlay strategy on soccer match :

1. Select random team . each league one team. bet on away team.
2. Select teams based on my analysis, usually I placed mix bet between under/over goals, money line, halftime to win and both teams to score. Rarely I make parlay all money line, under/over etc.

for me when I made the parlay depending on the game. if a lot of games that I think is quite easy to predict I will make a parlay with many teams.

I don't believe that there is any strategy what can help you win parlays ,it is all your luck and best picks together work to make you some money.I try my best to pick best even few teams or odds to form a slip for parlay.

Op didn't Ask you any winning strategy, he ask to share our strategy how we make a parlay .
However a strategy on making parlay at least make our winning chance increased. Even luck are take big part on determine our winning , there is no harm to use a strategy.

In all honesty - I don't play parlays very often, because of the increased risks of losing my bet. But when I do, I make sure NOT to play on game winner, but rather on goals, handicaps(often playing against the favorite) etc.
Just make sure to find value in your bets - and do your analysis before picking up parlays, this was a personal mistake when i was younger. I would just pick games which sounded 'good', and I often lost my bets. I learned it the hard way.

For me i bet high on parlay  than a single bet and i think my average to include bets is below 4.
But i think its better to play on a single bet than on parlay because there is possible to lose than a single bet

My strategy for parlay is:
Select events with a low odds and high probability to win (value bets)
I bet only with 3-4 events.
For funny I bet 9-15 events and a hvery high odd but with a small amount of money.

Same here, you have a greater chance of winning straight. If you have to choose just 2.

I agree with your comment.
Just take for instance interms of football major teams like Bayern (1,14), Dortmund (1,2), Barcelona (1,12), Paris St.Germain (1,10) against absolute underdogs and you can have a total of 1,68. This season would have worked out very well.
When I do parlay I use in general not more than 3 teams.

I usually just bet a smaller amount on 2-3 confident bets at odds ranging from 1.4-1.7 . Usually pays off. I don't think there is a good strategy, but mostly depends on how sure you are of the bet. I only tend to add games which I am more sure of.

Well,whenever i bet in sports i usually go with parley's and it's one of my favorite betting style because parley increases the odds and we can easily make profit from parley are we just add some safe bets in it.
I usually make parley of atleast 3 bets and max 4-5 bets at around 1.2 or 1.3 odds per bet so i combine these small and safe odds bets to get total decent odds ;)

I'll try to bet on the leagues and teams I follow so that I can reduce my chances of losing to the minimum. We're talking gambling in any case and there are always a lot of variables that must be considered.
Odds are important too and not to play many games also. And then one needs a lot of luck!

My advice for you, don't do parlay. The cons of parlays definitely outweigh the pros. The only pro is - if you hit the jackpot you will win a lot, but how many times do you actually won?
You will be better betting on 1 match at time, your prize won't be so awesome but your winning will be more standardized and in long run you will earn more.

It makes no sense to me to play a single event, that's what a parlay is all about! To use less money to win more.

To be honest, my parlay picks were always disastrous, I mean I think I placed more than 10 and didn't win anything. But it wasn't bad calls or picks, it's just that it's too hard to get the results with so many variables, even if they are 2 or 3, something always goes wrong in one of them and you're screwed. That's my experience, it's better to stay away from parlays, except if you really see a good opportunity (but that's how I've lost my money so...hehe).

When I make parlay bets, I only choose those individual bets that have very low odds and I have never included more than 4 bets in a parlay. The bet amount for my parlay bets are no different from that for my straight bets.

Why not?parlay is a fun betting strategy, most gamblers with lower bankroll prefer to use parlay because they may earn big amount just with small amount. Even though it has higher risk to lose, but it is how gambling works. High risk high return.

I dont have strategy to bet on parlay. I just look at the history of matches and only sometimes I do parlay and I choose 3 teams to parlay. But its risky to bet on parlay.

Yes and you can select a lot of bets with small payouts like 1.05, 1.12 and such to get odds of 2.00 + and that is what I prefer to do when playing parlay bets. Its much safer and easier than betting actually at 2.00 odds.

UPDATE: Hit my first parlay last night
Odds:6.98
# of picks: 3
Risked: BTC0.22
Won:BTC1.535

Strategy used (If you can even call it that): Simply took my top 3 picks of the night and made single bets on top of the parlay with same BTC risked for each pick.

That is a nice win. Congrats. Back to the question in OP, most of my sports bets are made separately but I do make a parlay bet from time to time. My parlay usually consists of 2 to 3 bets only while my bet amount would be slightly lower if the odds is higher vice versa.

I guess my strategy would be to bet pretty big on the individual matches themselves. Then with the smaller amount of bit coin I would throw all those confident straight bets, into a nice parlay. With the parlay being smaller bet, if you win all the bets you get the bonus parlay. If you lose one match, they parlay being smaller doesnt really break you.

Its very nice mostly if you know the list of the winning team and you will get win even you got lose 1 team.
Actually i use parlay if i have a list that should be win..

when i am making bets on parlays it is very important that you know the team you are betting on if not make some research first i bet all in when i see that my team will actually win usually when the odds are below 2.00 so there is a high chance that i will win

How you decide an event has high probability to win? Because low odds is not a guarantee to win.
Let's say odds @1.2 each for 4 events total odds will be around 2.2xx I agree with this but how you determine an event with high probability to win? Is it just on low odds?
Also I think you only able to make 13 events parlay maximum, where you get 15 events max?

I usually take my favorite game of big match and add it to my parlay mixing with other sports. Every parlay i make usually up to 5 odds. Some of parlay i have make before too many lost only a few are wins. And average of only 1 or 2 team that failed.

That always happened to me too, placed 5 matches with different sports, odds over 10 and only 1 match lost , frequently happened to my parlay.
Once my parlay won, all previous lost covered and it's good thing huhhh.

But for making that parlay over 10 odds? You should at least get 2x 3 or more I guess. With this you have a 50 50 chance to lose it. My suggest is why dont you take like 1.xx odds or even lower and get more team for your parlay. I think it will have a better chance with the same payout

yeahh i make an analysis carefully on every matches so i always take an odds around 1.8 to 2.2 to prove how good i am make a prediction based on my personal analysis.
usually i make a parlay for football/soccer , between both teams to score odds average @1.8 , under/over goals odds average @2 , Half Time result odds average 1.9 and sometimes even/odds when i predict the match will ended draw i placed on even.
i don't like the low odds to be parlayed, make hurts you know.

I have bet over 10 times on parlay, only 1 time i won it, with a 4-picks parlay and i chose money line on low odds for NBA matches, it is difficult to win a parlay cause there are always unexpected match results happen. In tennis the best players even lost the match on 1.03-1.1 odds. It sucked, murray made my 1.02 odds bet lost.

Choose 9 game seperate them with your best - > not best

Then put 1-3 , 4-6 , 7-9 into a team and bet

In the end bet one 1-9 parlay as well .

I have experienced it, More bad I lost on parlay and one team loses with odds 1.08 and it is Barcelona. sometimes choosing a very low odds was not a guarantee to win.

3 bets, 2 safe and a long shot I feel has a decent chance. I only know college football enough to bet on so I stick to that.

I think it's simply the most reasonable thing to do: I usually study a bit before creating a parlay, and I try to get as much information as I can to make the best parlay possible. When I place a single bet I usually go for correct scores, but I gamble very few.

hot favour (~1.3) 8x1 ;D
but always got 6-7 wins, with 1-2 lose :(

i tried parley very long time ago and 2 times only.my strategy is simple.take any two games with very low odds and combine them and bet on it big amount so you get a nice percentage return on that in 1 day.it is still better then any hyip and ponzi because you will guarantee get nice win by this way

Look at this parlay bet

https://nitrogensports.eu/betslip/8869278ZU13TXlJbno1V3dqMG5BQ0wweE93UT09/r/448970/

I usually take my favorite game with a big game and add it to parlay my mixing with other sports.

any parlay odds I make usually until 9 (if I am very sure) some I parlay wager, only a few get the victory

only 1 lose
that made it all so shattered

but ur predic its cool  8)

This parlay can be a nice entry to nitrogens contest the parlay jackpot. Anyway my strategy on parlay is to pick the team that your only confident on betting on.

But don't forget in sports anything always could happened  and changed. If you do it continuously one day the parlay will get failed and affected bigger lost than your previous winnings. Have tried this method before and it's just make me hurt.

I choose bets with small odds and try to get them accumulate until odds becomes 2 or more

I love parlay with high odds, so I select 7 bets in cloudbet with odd of 2 or more, to get parlay of 100 odds.

And does it work for you? Have you ever won anything? I have trouble winning anything above 5 lol
I can't imagine winning at 100 xD

yah i also very curious if it really works for him cause parlay with odds at 2 is very very very difficult even for prof tipsters.

I always make a parlay that just try my luck with odds of 100 or more and as a result I never win, it's really hard :D
