Every leg has to win; a push usually drops that leg and reprices the rest. Pick'em apps pay fixed multipliers instead: see the DFS payout calculator.

How it works

A parlay multiplies its legs' decimal odds together. That's why a better price on even one leg moves the whole payout: shopping one leg from -120 to -105 on a 3-leg parlay adds about 6.5% to what it pays.

The combined price also stacks every leg's margin, so a parlay usually holds much more than a single bet. The "each leg needs to win" figure is the average win rate per leg at which the parlay breaks even.

Questions

How is a parlay payout calculated?

Turn each leg's odds into decimal odds and multiply them together; the product times your stake is the payout. Three legs at -110 are 1.909 × 1.909 × 1.909 = 6.96, so a $10 parlay pays $69.58 ($59.58 profit), about +596.

What are the odds of a parlay hitting?

At the book's prices, 1 divided by the combined decimal odds: about 14.4% for three -110 legs. The real chance is a little lower, because every leg's price includes the book's margin and parlays stack it.

What happens if a leg pushes?

Most sportsbooks drop the pushed leg and pay the parlay on the remaining legs, so a 3-leg parlay with one push pays as a 2-leg. Check your book's house rules: some grade a push in a 2-leg parlay as a straight bet.

Is a parlay the same as a PrizePicks entry?

No. A sportsbook parlay pays the product of each leg's odds, so the price on every leg matters. Pick'em apps pay a fixed multiplier for the number of picks; the DFS payout calculator handles those.
