Round Robin betting is a safer way of betting parlays while keeping some upside. It involves selecting three or more single wagers to create a combination of parlays. You put a specific amount of money on each parlay, limiting both overall risk and upside.
We’ll have one NBA and one NFL round robin bet lined up every week, so make sure to check back to this page for any updates.

MORE PROPS: NFL | NBA | NHL | PGA | CFB
Alperen Sengun o37.5 PRA (-115)
Sengun is an outstanding scorer, rebounder, and facilitator for the Houston Rockets. He’s averaging 19.2 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 4.8 assists in 31.2 minutes per game. He’s recorded 41 and 45 PRA in his last two games.
Sengun gets as good of a matchup as he could as for against the New Orleans Pelicans. They’re giving up a ridiculous 46.5 PRA per game to opposing centers this season. He’s also averaging 1.15 PRA per minute in two games against the Pelicans this season.
Paolo Banchero o40.5 PRA (-110)
Banchero is one of the best young players in the NBA at the moment. He’s averaging 24.2 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 5.0 assists in 33.6 minutes per game this season. He’s also posted 41 points in two of his last three games.
Banchero gets an elite matchup against the Chicago Bulls tonight. The Bulls are giving up 40.5 PRA per game to opposing power forwards this season. Truthfully, there just isn’t anyone on this Chicago roster that has the ability to slow down Banchero, and he boasts 40+ point upside.
Onyeka Okongwu o9.5 Rebounds (+105)
Okongwu is starting to take over more for the Atlanta Hawks in recent games. He’s averaging 8.2 rebounds on 13.9 rebound chances in 26.2 minutes per game this season. He boasts 8+ rebounds in 11 of his last 14 games, including six games with 10+ rebounds.
Okongwu gets a good matchup against the Indiana Pacers tonight. They’re allowing the sixth-most rebounds (15.8) per game to opposing centers. In their only matchup this season, Okongwu posted 11 rebounds on 17 rebound chances in 29.2 minutes.
Pascal Siakam o23.5 Points (-110)
Siakam isn’t a consistent scorer for the Indiana Pacers, but he comes with plenty of upside. He’s averaging 20.6 points on 15.2 FGA, 4.3 3PA, and 4.1 FTA in 32.9 minutes per game this season. He also recently dropped 36 points against the Miami Heat.
Siakam gets an outstanding matchup against the Atlanta Hawks tonight. They’re allowing the fifth-most points (24.1) per game to opposing centers. The Indiana power forward recorded 20 points in his only matchup against Atlanta, but it wasn’t his most efficient outing of the season. He certainly left points on the table in that game.
What Is Round Robin Betting?
Let’s break down Round Robin betting with an example. For this example, we’ll assume there are four bets, which will be labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4.
There are 11 total combinations of parlays that you would run. Here they are:
- 1 & 2
- 1 & 3
- 1 & 4
- 2 & 3
- 2 & 4
- 3 & 4
- 1, 2, & 3
- 1, 2 & 4
- 1, 3, & 4
- 2, 3, & 4
- 1, 2, 3, & 4
You’ll bet on each of these combinations. For example, if you want $10 per bet, you’ll bet $110 total. You can win each of the 11 bets with differing payouts as well.
For example, if you win bets 1, 2, and 3, here are the individual parlays you’d cash:
- 1 & 2
- 1 & 3
- 2 & 3
- 1, 2, & 3
You cash all 11 bets if you sweep your card. This is a way to limit risks on a parlay, although it does also limit your overall possible payout compared to a normal parlay.
If you bet $110 on this combination of parlays (at -110 odds each), you would receive $630 if you sweep the card. If you solely bet the 4-leg parlay, you’d win $1,461.50.
The difference is you can win money back on Round Robin betting, while parlay betting is all-or-nothing.
