How the 3-Leg Parlay Calculator works
What does a 3 team parlay pay?
A 3 team parlay with every leg at -110 pays +596: $69.58 back on a $10 bet ($59.58 profit) and $696 on $100. To get there, convert each leg to decimal odds (-110 is 1.909), multiply all 3 together for 6.96, then multiply by your stake.
True odds of a 3 leg parlay
A -110 line on both sides is a coin flip once the vig comes out, so the fair chance all 3 legs win is 0.5 to the power of 3: 12.5%, or 1 in 8. The price you pay implies a higher 14.4%, because each -110 leg charges you as if it wins 52.4% of the time.
How much the book holds on a 3 leg parlay
If every leg is a true coin flip, the book expects to keep 13.0% of every dollar bet on a 3 leg parlay at -110, compared with 4.5% on one straight bet. Add a 4th leg and that rises to 17.0%. The vig compounds with each leg, which is why books promote parlays so heavily.
How often a 3 leg parlay loses by one leg
With three coin-flip legs, the chance of going exactly 2 for 3 is 37.5%, about three times the 12.5% chance of going 3 for 3. That is why a 3 team parlay so often feels close: missing by one leg is the single most likely outcome. If you want partial credit for a 2 out of 3 result, a round robin of two-leg parlays is the tool for that.

| One +150 underdog, 2 at -110 | +811 | $91.12 | $911 | 11.0% |
Payouts are total return (stake plus profit), legs assumed independent. Many sportsbooks cap the total payout on a single parlay.
