Baseball Gambling

Overnight Dime Lines

Overnight dime lines are betting lines for the following day's matchups, and are typicaly posted within one hour of the start of the final game of the day. There may be a maximum wager limit on overnight dime lines, which will usually be lifted the following morning.

Parlays

Parlays, also known as Multiples or Combos, are a very exciting way for the baseball betting enthusiast to win very large amounts of money with limited risk.

Simply put, a parlay is a bet of 2 or more teams (selections) or propositions in no particular order. All teams wagered on in a parlay must win. If there is a tie, it reverts down to the next lowest number for payoff. For 2 team parlays, a tie and win becomes a straight bet payout.

At the best online sportsbooks, you may include up to 12 Selections in your parlays, all sports included. This means that you can make one parlay card with a combination of all your favorite sports!

Parlay bets will not typically be accepted where individual "selections" are connected. For example, one leg of a parlay is for Sampras to beat Henman in the 4th round of Wimbledon and the second or additional part of the parlay is for Sampras to win the overall Wimbledon title. The match forms part of the overall tournament and is therefore 'connected'. In the same way, you cannot parlay the over of the first half of a football game with the over of the total game, because the two are 'connected'



Baseball (moneyline) Parlay Payoffs

Because of the moneyline used in baseball, there are no set payoffs for tying a number of teams together in parlays. Payoffs are determined by a simple formula that changes the moneyline into a decimal number and combines it with the other lines in the parlay. The first step is to change the moneyline into a decimal value. Use the chart below for this purpose.

How to Figure Baseball Parlays

For each price or odds quote on your teams, look at their respective payoffs (to $1) and always add $1 to these payoffs.

Multiply your bet times the products of these payoffs (+$1) for your parlay return.

Example
A Player bet $50 on the Cardinals (-150) parlayed to the Tigers (-130)

Bet  

Cardinals

 

Tigers

 

Return

   

(-150)

 

(-130)

   

$50

  X  

1.67

  X  

1.77

  =  

$147.80


The return includes the $50 bet.

Use the same method for any number of teams.

Example
Bet $75 on the Cubs (+120) to the Reds (-135) to the Mets (Even) for a 3 team parlay

Bet

 

Cubs

 

Reds

 

Mets

 

Return

   

>(+120)

 

(-135)

 

(Even)

   

$75

  X  

2.20

  X  

1.74

  X  

2.00

  =  

$574.20

   

(1.00 + 1.20)

 

(1.00 + .74)

 

(1.00 + 1.00)

   


The return includes the $75 bet.

Remember to always add $1 to the payoff price to figure all parlays.
