Understanding Parlays

The math behind the payout

Why parlays pay more — and what the sportsbook keeps.

How It Works

Combined odds calculation

Parlay odds are simply the product of each leg's decimal odds. A 3-leg parlay at 1.91 × 1.91 × 1.91 = 6.97 decimal, or about +597. The payout is your stake × combined decimal odds. Formula: payout = stake × (dec₁ × dec₂ × … × decₙ)

The Vig Compounds

Why the house edge grows

Each leg carries the sportsbook's vig (~4.5% per leg at -110). In a parlay, that vig compounds multiplicatively. A 3-leg parlay at standard juice has roughly 13% house edge; a 6-legger has ~25%. The true fair payout is always higher than what books pay.

Win Probability

How to read it

The win probability shown is implied by the odds given — it includes the book's vig, so the true probability of winning is slightly lower. A 3-team parlay at -110 each has a ~12.5% implied win probability. You'd need to win 1-in-8 to break even long-term.

Best Use Cases

When parlays make sense

Parlays are highest EV when you have correlated legs (same game, where one outcome makes another more likely). A QB throwing for 300 yards is correlated with his team scoring — parlaying both gives you fair or better odds. Standard multi-game parlays are entertainment, not edge.

Understand the number this returns

The calculator multiplies your legs; the guide shows the formula behind it, and the chart lists every leg count from 2 to 12 at the standard price. Combined odds include the sportsbook’s margin on each leg, so the implied probability shown is not a true probability.
