Very true. It's a common misconception that parlays are a "sucker bet". They certainly can be. But for sharp bettors, parlays often offer exceptional value - better than you can find on straight plays. Proving the point is that Pinnacle - by far the the best book out there for value seekers - ban most correlated parlays. But it's amazing how many books do allow them. Word to the wise about sports betting in general - Check what Pinny are offering before making any bet. Ever. Also, look to Piiny to see what buying extra points are worth. Lots of value to be found buying the extra points, but only in certain situations.... Much more likely to be bad value than good to buy the 1/2 point or full point, but not always. Sometimes it is extraordinarly GOOD value to do it. Checking Pinny's is a good way to find the value...
