Definición
When two bets' outcomes are statistically linked rather than independent — e.g. a team's moneyline and its team-total over both cash when that team scores a lot. Standard parlay pricing assumes the legs are independent, so correlated legs make the quoted combined odds and EV wrong (usually in the book's favor); sportsbooks block or re-price obvious same-game correlations.

- Parlay — A single bet combining multiple selections that all must win. Bigger payouts, but the vig compounds on every leg.
- Expected Value (EV) — The average profit or loss per unit staked if a bet were placed many times. A positive-EV (+EV) bet profits long-term even when single bets lose.
