As as for Frustrated Bookie... I wouldnt worry about your player...you have to know that when there is alot of wins....my God there is much more losses...that is the law of gambling...I totally agree with Diogee.

Presumably the term you heard is “Round Robin.”
A Round Robin is a set of parlays. It’s just a way of saying you want all the possible parlay combinations of a certain type.
So, let’s say you like four teams (A, B, C, D), and you want to bet all the possible two-team parlays with them. Instead of asking for a two-team parlay of A and B, and then asking for a two-team parlay of A and C, and so on down the line, you just ask for a Round Robin of all the twos for teams A, B, C, and D. (AB, AC, AD, BC, BD, and CD.)
Or you can take a Round Robin of all the possible three-team parlays of those four selections. (ABC, ABD, ACD, and BCD.) Or a Round Robin of all possible parlays period, which would include the two-team parlays, the three-team parlays, and the one four-team parlay. (AB, AC, AD, BC, BD, CD, ABC, ABD, ACD, BCD, and ABCD.)
It’s just a way of saving time when placing bets. You end up with the exact same wager as if you had just placed each parlay separately.
