Parlay Card

A Parlay card is the list of payouts; player can get it based on sum number of teams wage in an exacting parlay. Most of the sportsbooks use a ‘traditional’ parlay card, as others will sometimes their parlay cards for attracting players via special sporting events or promotions.

If you are concerned in gambling a parlay, always remember to read the sportsbook’s parlay card very first, in this will help you to know that you can bet on how many teams, and what the payment is, even if there are any of the associated conditions with your parlay wage so, you will be familiar with that too. Do not wage a parlay blind, firstly educate yourself suspiciously and be aware that conditions and rules may vary between dissimilar sportsbooks.

Some examples of the traditional “Las Vegas Parlay Card” are given bellow that shows the classic payment for up to fifteen-team parlay wage:

13 to five – two Team Parlay

6 to one – three Team Parlay

10 to one –  four Team Parlay

20 to one – five Team Parlay

40 to one – six Team Parlay

75 to one – seven Team Parlay

100 to one – eight Team Parlay

150 to one –  nine  Team Parlay

300 to one – ten Team Parlay

450 to one –  eleven  Team Parlay

600 to one –  twelve  Team Parlay

750 to one – thirteen  Team Parlay

900 to one – fourteen Team Parlay

1500 to one – fifteen  Team Parlay

Now the question arises that how to read the example parlay card? It is so simple, suppose you bet on 10-team parlay. In case, you succeed the wage (through picking all ten champions correctly), so you will get there hundred to one on your money. Therefore, a 5USD 10-team parlay wage would give out the cool amount of 1500USD.

It is essential to note, but, there are few associated conditions with bets of parlay, and every bettor should know then, as mentioned before that conditions and rules can vary by the sportsbook. Have a look at the following general parlays rules:

• If a bettor loses any game on his parlay wage, the whole wage loses.

• If a bettor wages a 2-team, parlay and any game ties, so the parlays become a straight wage.

• In case any games on the parlay wage more than two teams so it is a push, bettor does not lose the parlay drops to the other payment level. Like, a 4-team parlay with 1 game push becomes three team parlay. Similarly, a 10-team parlay with 1 game push becomes nine team parlay. In case 2 teams tie the extend, bettor deduct two games from his total parlay games, six team parlay wage with two push becomes a four team parlay. 2 or more pushes are unusual, and many times, if there are any change in parlay, it will be product of 1 team pushing.

• Utmost Parlay wage payment: Most of the sportsbooks give a maximum payment on any one-parlay wage. Generally, this sum is in the area of 100,000USD (whatever currency you use). This stipulation is inescapable to care for sportsbook from pay out a enormous win, particularly in the unusual event that a vast parlay wage comes in.

Remember: never skip to read the sportsbook’s parlay card before you wage, then only you will be aware of the condition, payouts and rules of your wage. Being a knowledgeable parlay bettor will place the odds significantly in your support.

Good Luck and Have fun!

NFL Game Capsules

- Jeff Reed’s 33-yard field goal split the uprights in overtime — allowing Hines Ward to exhale — and giving the defending Super Bowl-champion Pittsburgh Steelers a 13-10 victory over Tennessee in the season opener for both teams. Without a ground game, Ben Roethlisberger worked in a no-huddle offense down the stretch in orchestrating his 18th come-from-behind victory since 2004, the most in the NFL during that stretch. Roethlisberger threw for 363 yards on 33-of-43 passing, with Santonio Holmes hauling in nine passes for 131 yards and Ward catching eight passes for 103 yards. Despite the 100-plus-yard game, Ward made a mistake that brought him to near tears late in the fourth, as he fumbled at the Titans four-yard line when he could have fallen to the ground and allowed the team to attempt a chip shot field goal in the waning seconds. However, Pittsburgh (1-0) regrouped in overtime, moving authoritatively down the field for the game-winner, set up by a 22-yard pass to rookie Mike Wallace. The final drive took four minutes, 32 seconds and 10 plays, moving the team 63 yards right into Reed’s range. Pittsburgh won without its normal rushing success, averaging just 1.6 yards per carry with 36 net yards on 23 attempts, and losing star safety Troy Polamalu to a second-quarter sprained MCL. The time frame for such an injury is 3-to-6 weeks, according to Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin, but more will be known in the coming days. Tennessee (0-1) saw its usually reliable kicker Rob Bironas miss a field goal and have another blocked in the loss. Kerry Collins threw for 244 yards with one touchdown and one interception, dropping his first game in four career games versus Pittsburgh. Chris Johnson ran for 57 yards, but 32 of those came on one play, and Justin Gage caught seven passes for 78 yards and a touchdown.

Roger and Serena look to defend Open titles

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) – The 2009 Grand Slam season will conclude in the next few weeks, as tennis giants Roger Federer and Serena Williams look to defend their titles at the U.S. Open.

Federer will head to the Big Apple seeking a record sixth straight U.S. Open championship. He already holds the record with five straight in the Open Era (since 1968) after beating Britain’s Andy Murray in last year’s final at Ashe Stadium. Serena captured her third Open title a year ago by holding off Serbian star Jelena Jankovic in the women’s finale.

Note: Legends Jimmy Connors and Pete Sampras also own five U.S. Open titles in the Open Era…they just didn’t come in succession.

What else is there left to say about Federer? The super Swiss seems to hold just about every meaningful record in the sport (as far as the men are concerned).

Federer is the all-time men’s leader with 15 major titles, and he’s still only 28 years old. He set the mark by outlasting Andy Roddick in last month’s epic Wimbledon finale, as the Basel native notched a sixth Wimby title in seven years.

The regal Federer is also one of only six men to capture the career Grand Slam, which he did by nailing down that elusive first-ever French Open title back in June.

Nolasco’s CG gem leads Marlins over Astros

Houston, TX (Sports Network) – Ricky Nolasco pitched a brilliant three-hitter to lead the Florida Marlins to a 6-2 win over the Houston Astros in the opener of a three-game series at Minute Maid Park.

Nolasco (9-8) surrendered two runs on two first-inning hits and was virtually untouchable thereafter to notch his third career complete game. Nolasco recorded 10 strikeouts, did not walk a batter and retired 23 consecutive batters until an infield single in the ninth.

“He retired 23 batters in a row — he had great command,” said Marlins manager Fredi Gonzalez about Nolasco. “To throw a complete game against that lineup in this park, he deserves a tip of the cap.”

Jeremy Hermida produced three hits, including a home run, and two RBI for Florida, which has won eight of its last 10 games overall and remained 4 1/2 games behind the Phillies in the NL East.

Big Ten – A Postseason Nightmare

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) – The Big Ten has won 51 of its last 70 non-conference regular season FBS games, but when it comes to the postseason, the league has taken it on the chin. Only one league club (Iowa) was able to win a bowl game last year, and since ‘04, when the league went 3-3 SU and 5-1 ATS in the postseason, the Big Ten is 9-20 SU and 12-17 ATS.

The winning percentage against other BCS squads was the same 37%, with a 7-12 ATS record. More important to the league itself was its horrible showing against the other top five conferences. The Big Ten won only six of 19 games SU, with only Iowa and Northwestern
