Parlaying is one of the most popular forms of betting, particularly on the National Football League. A parlay bet allows you to wager on the outcome of two or more games on the same ticket. Of course, the catch is that all the games wagered on must be winners for you to cash in. That means higher odds, and higher risk.

Round Robin - In sports betting this a series of three or more teams in 2-team parlays. Run down - In sports gambling this is all the lines for an specific date, sport, time, etc.

One way to reduce that risk is through Round Robin wagering. Often overlooked, particularly by novice sports bettors, Round Robin wagering enables you to create multiple parlays on a single ticket. For example, what if you have found four really great NFL bets to lay a few dollars on this Sunday, as outlined below, but don’t know how to structure your wagers.

New York Jets
New England Patriots -10 (-105)

• Round Robin Betting Round Robin betting is a very fun and quite simple way of putting several parlays together at once. When you place a bet on a round robin, you are picking anywhere from 3 to 8 teams you would like to bet on. Following that, you will elect to do parlays of anywhere from 2 to 6 teams.
• What is a Round Robin? Round robin wagers are an easy way to create multiple parlays at once. Select between 3 and 8 lines, then combine them into several parlays of 2 to 7 teams. The advantage to this type of wager is you can make your money back by hitting only one winning combination.

San Francisco 49ers
Seattle Seahawks -13 (-105)

Tampa Bay Buccaneers +3 (-105)
Jacksonville Jaguars

Denver Broncos
Kansas City Chiefs -3 (-105)

A winning four-team parlay bet on the Patriots, Seahawks, Buccaneers, and Chiefs would pay out handsomely, with a $10 wager winning $130 or more. But that requires all four picks to win, otherwise your bet is a loser, and it is time to start thinking about next Sunday.

With Round Robin wagering, those four picks can be combined into as many as six two-team parlays and four three-team parlays, thereby distributing your risk while still preserving the chances of a solid payout.

In the example above, each of the point spreads have odds of -105 attached to them. That means if you were to bet only on the Patriots to cover as 10-point favorites, you would have to bet $105 to win $100. Those odds improve dramatically when you parlay multiple picks. Parlaying two teams at -105 translates into a payout of approximately 1.8/1, while a three-team winner will pay out at approximately 11/2.

Now, imagine spreading those wagers across all your picks next Sunday.

But even if one or even two of your teams lose, that means you can still cash in on four or five winning parlays, leaving you up on the day, and preserving your stack for next Sunday’s action.
