Racebook Betting: Win, Place, Show Parlays
Lots of folks like parlays because they are some of the most fun bets to wager. Win, Place, Show Parlays are fairly simple and can in a great deal of money. The best way to talk about parlay betting is with a simple example.
The first step to playing a parlay is deciding what type you will play. For the sake of the example, lets say we have chosen a Win Parlay. You look at the program and think in the 1st race the # 5 horse will win, in the 4th race you think the # 3 horse will win, and in the 8th race you think the # 7 horse will win.
In the 1st race you put $10.00 win on # 5. The # 5 wins the first race and pays $8.00. So now we take the $40.00 ticket and place it all to win on the # 3 in the 4th race. The # 3 horse wins the 4th race and pays $6.00 to win. We are now clutching $120.00 ticket in our hot little hand. We now take the $120.00 and place it all to win on the # 7 horse in the 8th race. The # 7 horse wins and pays $5.00. Our total payoff for the day is $300.00. Not bad for a $10 investment. The number of races you play is completely up to you.
