What is a Parlay?
A parlay is a single bet that links together multiple events for a higher payout. The more teams that you tie together the higher your payout is going to be, but the risk also grows since if just one of your legs loses, the bet is a loser. It doesn’t matter what happens in the other games.
If one leg of your parlay ties, pushes, is cancelled due to postponement, cancellation, rescheduling, then the wager reverts to the next lowest number. For example a 3-team parlay with a push gets graded as a 2-team parlay with the other two legs.
