What is a Round Robin?

A round robin is a practical way to create multiple parlays at once. Select between three and eight lines, and then combine them into several parlays of two to seven teams. You generally need to hit only one winning combination to make your money back for the entire round robin. Let's look at an NFL round robin bet as an example:

Suppose you are confident in the following three lines:

New England Patriots -8
Buffalo Bills +4
Minnesota Vikings -10

Rather than creating a three-team parlay, you can place a round robin and create all possible two-team parlays from the three lines.

First parlay:

New England Patriots -8
Buffalo Bills +4
Risk $5 to win $13 (2.6/1 odds)

Second parlay:

New England Patriots -8
Minnesota Vikings -10
Risk $5 to win $13 (2.6/1 odds)

Third parlay:

Buffalo Bills +4
Minnesota Vikings -10
Risk $5 to win $13 (2.6/1 odds)

Your total risk amount for the three-team, two-way round robin is $15 to win a maximum of $39.

If you select more than three lines, you can increase the size and/or number of parlays that are created, as illustrated in the table below:

Number of lines:	Number of ways (parlay size):	Number of parlays:
3	2	3
4	2	6
4	3	4
5	2	10
5	3	10
5	4	5
6	2	15
6	3	20
6	4	15
6	5	6
7	2	21
7	3	35
7	4	35
7	5	21
7	6	7
8	2	28
8	3	56
8	4	70
8	5	56
8	6	28
8	7	8
