Default Re: My 2 team parlay of the night

A typical line would be -110 for the sake of argument for one bet.

Betting 110 on the first part of the parlay would give you 100 profit, plus your 100 back, so you would have 210 units.

If you then invested that 210 at -110, you would return 401 units (191 profit and your stake back).

The total odds are therefore 291 profit for 110 outlay which is 2.64-1

Your bet at bodog returns 51.38-20.00 which is only 2.57-1 (Dividing through by 20 to get that number) so you're getting worse than -110 on each section of the bet.
