    Default Round Robin Parlays

    I am new to this but had a question: I have been a player for about 10 years and use a local sports guy who follows the vegas rules. I had a round robin parlay on sunday on houston, gb, and indy. The houston line was -3 and it unfortunately pushed. In all of my years, that play becomes a straight bet if the other part of the parlay wins.

    I was told that by true vegas rules, since I called in a play as a round robin that a push is a LOSS. I have never ever heard of this. Now, this is a new person that I am dealing with and was curious if anyone ever heard of a round robin parlay being a push a loss. I am confused.

    Thanks

    You are right, and are being ripped off. Find another guy immediately.

    A push should reduce - in Vegas or offshore. The other legs should become straight-bets.
