For those interested in what a parlay card actually is?
It's a game that is used for trying to pick at least 3 (or up to 10) NCAA Football or NFL games against the point spread(explained below). You can choose the amount of games you would like to play. The more games you play the better odds you receive. The odds are given on the parlay card. If one of your games lose, your card is then void. If one of your games ties...it then falls into the next lower rank. For example, If you decide to play a 5 team parlay and you win 4 and tie 1 game...you would then win a 4 team odds, not a 5 team.


How to use a Parlay Card?
There will be a number next to each team. When you decide on the team you want to pick, you then go to the bottom of the parlay card and circle that number that was next to the team you wanted. When you have decided on the games you want, make sure you have the correct games circled(double check) and then submit your ticket to your gaming collector.

Point Spread -
What is a point spread?
A point spread is the predicted scoring difference between a game's two opponents. If you choose the team that's favored, they have to win by more than the spread number in order for you to get credit for a correct pick. If you choose the underdog team, they must lose by less than the spread number (or win outright) in order for you to get credit for the correct pick.

So, if you pick Pittsburgh and they're favored to beat Dallas by five points, Pittsburgh has to win the game by six or more points in order for you to get credit for the win. Otherwise, if Dallas loses by less than five (or wins outright), you wouldn't get credit for the win. If Pittsburgh wins by exactly five points, the game is a push, and no users get credit for a victory.
