Otherwise it's a ripoff bet. You might as well just make your own parlay. At least you would know the odds as each leg came up.
(Why do think professional bookies LOVED offering parlays and round-robins?)

in the new book Betting with an Edge there is a good story about a bookie getting cooked by a really good player doing show parlays.
