Of course, you could have put another $10 on this and when it hits, you'd win another $9.09 in winnings. Let’s pretend that both teams have high-powered offenses, which is great news for you because you have backed the ‘over’ on the spread.

You can do that by combining the moneyline bet for the Giants with other wagers. However, there is a way to make more from this. Let’s say your favorite sportsbook has the New York Giants beat the Buffalo Bills at a price of -110. You could simply place a bet of $10 and, if the Giants win, then you can collect your $9.09 winnings. To bring in returns, every bet (or ‘leg’ as they are sometimes known) has to win. If even one bet fails, then the entire bet is a loss. Parlays combine several different wagers into one bigger bet. Thankfully, no matter what the moniker of this type of bet is, it is a form of gambling that has a relatively easy-to-grasp concept. A parlay is sometimes called 'accumulators' or 'multis.' Parlays have different names depending on where you're located.
