Just caught that I found a half point calculator online but it wont go backwards on the lines to give me the percentage to win. Example..

This weekend Utah State is spotting 3 on the card but online they are getting 2.5. But since I lose on ties I have to factor that im really only getting 2.5. Can someone tell me the probablity of winning this bet straight up and how you did the math on this or what website you used to do it because i cannot find one.

Also similar spot Detroit in nfl is getting 3 (so 2.5 because of ties) but online they are spotting 2.5. I was told above that I need 60% of each leg to win to win on these can you tell me if these 2 qualify thanks.

If you win 60% of picks, you will win 21.6% of parlays. Therefore, the break-even point would be receiving $231.48 on wins back after paying $50.

My bookie does the same thing! Money up they take your 50 and give you only 250 back? I don't understand but when you bet online they return your 50 plus your winnings..

(1/5)^(1/3) = 0.584
(1/10)^(1/4) = 0.562
(1/20)^(1/5) = 0.549

Assuming you can get 5+ picks per week with > 54.9% edge, play the 5 team parlay. Round robin if you have more picks.
