How can I give the sportsbook some value in exchange?
Did you know that by winning the majority of your parlays, you are actually providing the sportsbook some money? You should be paid out according to the probability that both bets in a parlay will come true. You can determine this without using arithmetic by multiplying the two probability jointly.
However, those are the actual odds, and for some reason, bookmakers don't like to give you that. Instead, they reduce the value somewhat in the belief that you won't notice or care because the payment already appears to be much larger on a lesser stake.
