Sportsbook Betting: Understanding Sub-Parlays
Anyone who is well versed with sportsbook betting will know about the parlays, however, there is another related form of betting that is gaining popularity these days. It is a sub-parlay. For those who are not aware of this form of betting, sub-parlay is basically a subset of parlay and comprises wager of 3 or more games.
In simple words, you can consider them as smaller form of parlay, so it should ideally consist of more than two selections. This is so because a parlay with 2 games has only singles as a subset, so it cannot be considered a sub-parlay. On the other hand, 3-game parlay have possibility of three 2-game parlays, a 4-game parlay have possibility of four 3-game parlays and six 2-game parlays.
In case the bettor makes a 5-game parlay and if any one of the selected plays are lost, then the bet is also considered to be a loss. Conversely, if the sportsbook allow you to bet on sub-parlays, you have the option to bet on any four, three or even two games of the total five selections, of a 5-game parlay, to be correct. This will help you to win out even small amount of money, even if some of your picks are not correct, as compared to a normal parlay bet.
