These parlay cards are offered at over 100 stores and bars throughout the state, as well as the 3 major sportsbooks in Delaware. Winners can claim winnings at any of these locations or can send the tickets in by mail.

Professional sports teams immediately filed a lawsuit against DE, and sports betting remained illegal.

Types of Delaware Parlay Cards Offered & Odds on Each

The Delaware Lottery offers 5 different types of football parlay cards: 1/2 point, teaser, super teaser, reverse teaser, and a $100,000 parlay card.

There are NFL parlay cards, college parlay cards, and cards with both. For the cards with NFL and college games, both can be included in the same parlay.

Note that each card has a $2 minimum bet and you must make at least three selections. You usually can’t include two options from the same game in the same parlay (such as the Eagles covering the spread plus the over in the same game).

Delaware Lottery Games. The Delaware Council on Gambling Problems offers confidential assistance to gamblers, their families, and to those who are concerned about a friend or colleague. The Council provides literature, support meeting information, treatment information, and 24-hour help.

These cards include “traditional” lines including point spreads (favorite/underdog) and totals (Over/Under) that are not adjusted at all as they are in teasers.

An example
Say the Eagles are 6.5 point favorites (-6.5) against the Cowboys (+6.5) and the total score may be set at 48.5 points.

• If you choose the Eagles, they must win by 7 points to cover.
• If you choose the Cowboys, they must win or lose by less than 7 to cover.
• If you choose the Over, the total combined score of both teams must be at least 49.
• If you choose the Under, the total combined score must be 48 or less.

The odds on these cards (and all DE Lottery parlay cards), don’t change based on which game you choose. The odds are the same for the entire season.

Here were the odds for the 2019-20 school year:

• 3 choices: 6.5 to 1 ($10 wins $65)
• 4 choices: 11 to 1
• 5 choices: 20 to 1
• 6 choices: 40 to 1
• 7 choices: 75 to 1
• 8 choices: 150 to 1
• 9 choices: 375 to 1
• 10 choices: 800 to 1
• 11 choices: 1400 to 1
• 12 choices: 2500 to 1

NOTE: The Delaware Lottery teaser card is closed until the beginning of the 2021 football season.

Teasers still allow you to bet point spread and game totals for football games, but the lines are adjusted by 5 to 7 points in your favor. The trade-off for more favorable odds is that you get worse odds.

Delaware Sports Lottery Parlay Cards

The same example as above with a 6 point tease
Instead of the Eagles being 6.5 point favorites against the Cowboys, they will now be 0.5 point favorites (Eagles -0.5) and the Cowboys will be 12.5 point underdogs (Cowboys +12.5). Instead of the total being 48.5, the new Over will be 42.5 and the new Under will be 54.5.

• If you choose the Eagles, they must win to cover (since you can only win by 1 point).
• If you choose the Cowboys, they must win or lose by less than 13 to cover.
• If you choose the Over, the total combined score of both teams must be 43 or more.
• If you choose the Under, the total combined score must be 54 or less.

Here were the odds for the 2019-20 school year:

• 3 choices: 12 to 5 ($5 wins $12)

• 19 choices: 750 to 1
• 20 choices: 1000 to 1

NOTE: The Delaware Lottery super teaser card is closed until the beginning of the 2021 football season.

Super teasers are just like teasers except the odds are shifted even more in your favor; typically between 10 and 14 points. The trade-off for even more favorable odds is that you get even worse odds as compared to normal teasers.

The same example as above with a 13 point tease
Instead of the Eagles being 6.5 point favorites against the Cowboys, they will now be 6.5 point underdogs (Eagles +6.5) and the Cowboys will be 19.5 point underdogs (Cowboys +19.5). Instead of the total being 48.5, the new Over will be 35.5 and the new Under will be 61.5.

• If you choose the Eagles, they must win or lose by less than 7.
• If you choose the Cowboys, they must win or lose by less than 20 to cover.
• If you choose the Over, the total combined score of both teams must be 36 or more.
• If you choose the Under, the total combined score must be 61 or less.

Here were the odds for the 2019-20 school year:

• 4 choices: 11 to 5
• 5 choices: 13 to 5
• 6 choices: 3 to 1
• 7 choices: 4 to 1
• 8 choices: 11 to 2
• 9 choices: 7 to 1
• 10 choices: 9 to 1
• 11 choices: 11 to 1
• 12 choices: 14 to 1
• 13 choices: 18 to 1
• 14 choices: 23 to 1
• 15 choices: 30 to 1
• 16 choices: 37 to 1
• 17 choices: 45 to 1
• 18 choices: 55 to 1
• 19 choices: 65 to 1
• 20 choices: 80 to 1

Reverse teasers are just like they sound like: the opposite of teasers. Instead of the odds being shifted in your favor, they are shifted against your favor by around 5 to 7 points in exchange for better odds.

The same example as above with a 6 point reverse tease
Instead of the Eagles being 6.5 point favorites against the Cowboys, they will now be 12.5 point favorites (Eagles +12.5) and the Cowboys will be 0.5 point underdogs (Cowboys +0.5). Instead of the total being 48.5, the new Over will be 54.5 and the new Under will be 42.5.

• If you choose the Eagles, they must win by at least 13.
• If you choose the Cowboys, they must tie or win (since the odds are +0.5).
• If you choose the Over, the total combined score of both teams must be 55 or more.
• If you choose the Under, the total combined score must be 42 or less.

Here were the odds for the 2019-20 school year:

• 3 choices: 20 to 1 ($10 wins $200)
• 5 choices: 60 to 1
• 6 choices: 600 to 1
• 7 choices: 1800 to 1
• 8 choices: 5000 to 1

NOTE: The Delaware Lottery super teaser card is closed until the beginning of the 2021 football season.

With this card, you wager $5 and select 15 NFL games against the spread. If you are correct on all 15, you win $100,000. If more than one person wins in a given week, the $100,000 will be split equally amongst the winners.

At times, select totals (Over/Under) will be included, but typically this card is limited to choosing a team with the spread (ex: Eagles -6.5).

You can see an example DE Lottery $100,000 Parlay Card here.

You can find the football parlay cards at over 100 stores and bars throughout Delaware. See the full list here. They are also provided by the 3 major sportsbooks: Delaware Park, Dover Downs, and Harrington Raceway & Casino.

If you win $600 or less, you can cash in your winning ticket at any of the locations offering parlay cards. If you win over $600, you must go to one of the 3 sportsbooks listed above or mail the ticket to:

Dover, DE 19904

Since the Delaware parlay cards come out towards the beginning of each week, you can find some value by waiting to fill out a card until before kickoff on Saturday (if betting college football) or Sunday (if only betting NFL).

How?

Lines at typical sportsbooks change throughout the week depending on which side gets more money bet on it, injuries, weather, and other things.

The lines on Delaware parlay cards, however, don’t change once they come out.

So my general strategy is to check the current lines on sportsbooks like FanDuel and DraftKings on Sunday morning and compare them to the parlay cards. I take note of the biggest differences (because there is “value” there) and use this information to help me decide which games to pick in my parlay cards.

For example, if the Eagles are -3 on the parlay card but the line is at -5 at the major sportsbooks on Sunday, there is 2 points of value there.

This doesn’t mean that I just blindly choose the biggest values according to the differences, however. I won’t play a game because the line moved a lot if I don’t like it. I’ll use the values I find in conjunction with my other research to choose my games. Note that I typically only play the NFL parlay cards since I know the NFL better than college.

Since I’m doing this research each week, I decided to create a newsletter called the Sunday Spread Report to help other Delaware sports bettors. It’s completely free and you can sign up via the form below:
