I'm a simple man when it comes to betting. I don't like to analyze too much that's why I don't do parlays.

Simple man as well, but I don't analyze my parlay bet, I just bet it for fun and just hoping that I'll be lucky.

However small the winnings in single bets are, they're equally good if done consistently. To try to maximize my winnings, I only pick games with good odds most of the time.

That's the principle I've been following, as a gambler, you don't risk big when you are not consistent yet but the moment will come you can prove you are consistent, that should be the start in putting a decent bet, for me it's like investing with knowledge, not gambling hoping for luck.

I do both, single bet on bigger amount, multi bet on smaller amount.

Some people say that parlay is making you lose overtime, it maybe correct but the fun and experience is really great when I'm doing a parlay bet.
Not only two legged parlay but even more, the higher the better as the payout will increase.

If you are serious with sports betting, you should focus on single bet instead.

There was a time when I was fascinated with multi-bets. It was my primary option when the odds were really low. I would usually place 4 to 5 bets in parlay to kind of make something worthy out of odds as low as 1.05 to 1.20. But then somehow I got disappointed because most of them would turn out a loss. And the worse thing was that the game which I was almost sure to be just a like a bonus in my multi-bet was the only one that would spoil everything. After several losses in multi-bets, I shifted back to single bets.

I am not a risk-taker, so I choose single bets. Multi bets can give a big win if you win, but it could give you a big loss if you lose. But I won't say that a single bet can't give you a big loss because if you place the high odds and lose, your loss will be bigger. But if you can predict many events and know which teams that have a chance to win, you can try with multi bets with various bets amount. Perhaps, you can experiment by yourself to find out which will work well for you, whether it's single bets or multi bets because I think we have our selection based on our knowledge.

If you do the math, multi bets are the biggest contributor in profit of sports betting or any other gambling games that allow multiple bets. The chances of winning is the same as single bets, yes the profit is low in singles but it is better because you will not lose big time with single bet.

If you bet 10 and your bet lost, you lose 10 which is not much if you are an avid gambler, but if you bet 10 on 3 games and 1 of them lost, you win 20 but you bet 30 which means that the only way you can get a decent profit is by winning all the 3 bets. I like to think of multiple betting as a speedrun into losing your money.

I prefer only a single bet compared to multi bet because for me it is riskier to have multi bet on which when you got lost all of those then you will lose a big amount of money compared to a single bet. If you want to play for the long run then you better keep on a single bet, that is what most of the bettors do. It would give you more chance of winning even though it will take for so long.
The only advantage of the multi bet is that there is a good chance of winning but is winning won't always by your side and if that would be the case your money will lose quickly.

Multi bets of course. My friend won 1 btc just with 0.001 btc as bet at 1000x multipler on 12-13 parlays game few years ago on direcbet.eu, (sadly because that site already closed now). That was very crazy and didn't thought he managed to win all those parlay games.

Betting huge amount in single bet would only pain since low odds won't guarantee you will win the match. It's better to bet 1000 times with 1 btc (Bet 0.001 btc) rather than bet 1 time with 1 btc.

The lower the risk, the higher the chance of winning. Your question is to combine the low multipliers in order to get higher odds but the chosen games will be more than 5 for 2 odd. What if one of the chosen matches with low odd becomes lost. Betting a high amount at low odds can hurt one day like me, I have lost $1932 in a tennis match which has the clear favorite player with 1.05 odd. On the last set, the player from France has decided not to play and odds started to drop for OP player, I have lost all bankroll which I build during 1 month in the single-game due to this low odd, sadly.

Multi bets stops you backing out when the odds and winnings gets too high, it also makes the chances of pulling off the overall win quite remote yet sometimes people are on a run and shouldnt stop. Its ideal for the small bets but purely in a logical way you could just manage every single bet manually and carry it over and thats smarter active management however I reckon most people mess it up or question their own insight wrongly and regret it later.
Im a big fan of multi bets but also it takes alot of time and investment in the game to be this certain, multi bet is ideal for the working man who has little time to actual place or even watch the games.

Everything is risky but multi-betting (parlay) is riskier than single betting.

Don't be blinded by those set of low odds as if gambling is that easy, then we already beat the sports bookies now. And to have good final odds in a parlay, you need to add more bet slip on it.

Just do the math on how many matches you need to get a good profit if you will only choose an odds between 1.01-1.1 and you need to hit it all just to win.

^ I voted 50/50.
Going back to the basic knowledge of ratio and proportion multi bets gives us a higher chance of winning but still, it remains chances absolutely it will not give us any guarantee. Moreover, if we do multi bets and we lose in the game then it hurts because we also lose a bigger amount which we can still use for later games if we didn't bet it in one single game. While with single bet we only have a low chance of winning but if we only look gambling as entertainment then might as well do single bets besides in gambling we can never tell if it is your lucky day and no one can predict who will win and who will lose in the game.

I bet on both single and multi bets, but I am putting more value and coins on singles.
I play multi bets just for fun and I don't invest high amounts and I never play on odds like you did 1.01 and 1.08
Loosing on low odds like that would made me go nuts

I prefer to single bets. For each bet that I make, I'm making sure that it's already clear before I go to the next match. There were times that I did multi bets but I want to watch the games that I watch because those bets were playing at the same time.
It's your daily preference to go for multibets or just single bets. Whichever makes you even better and comfortable, single or multi, you know yourself better.

When you decided to increase your bet expect as well to increase the level of risk and remember that this is still a gambling, a risky way to collect profit. Increasing your bet doesn’t change the fate of winning so don’t expect that you’ll win even if you do multi-bet, this will still depend on the result of the game. You can just do a small bet, and at least have a sure profit even if its small, that’s still a profit if ever.

It doesn't really matter the ones more preferable, it matters the outcomes. The both are more preferable but depends on the strategy used.
Multibets are more risky so its good to stake with less amount.
Single bet is less risky so its good to stake with high amount of money.
Lets take an example,

Multibets. Singlebet
1. A Vs B 1. G Vs H
Pred. A @1.23. pred. H @ 1.20
2. C Vs D. total odds = 1.20
Pred. D @1.20 stake = 0.01BTC
3. E Vs F. potential winning= 0.012BTC
Pred. E @1.28
Total odds= 1.8892
Stake= 0.002BTC
Potential winning= 0.00377BTC

So in conclusion, the more bets the less amount of stake.
The less bet the high amount of stake.

In my little experiment from the past, I was betting on Sportsbet.io on very likely outcomes with very low odds (1 point something). I won three single bets in a row:

It depends upon the match situation, in Boxing and MMA i always go with Parlay by picking the best possible candidates to win the fight and make some combinations of that and if there is a clear favorite i might include them but after the pandemic some of the results are strange and hence i concentrate only on fight events for Parlay and then in soccer i always go with goals scored over under in parlay rather than wins as i have seen many upsets in the past two months.

in general, I think that single bets are better, you can analyze your opponents in more detail and place a bet, and it depends on how much you understand the category you are betting on

It's like if you want a nice profit on low odds which is sometimes considered a sure win, then you have to fulfill a requirement first or takes risks. There is no easy money in sports betting and we need to work on that.

Even via a single bet or parlay, it won't increase our winning chances. Those are betting method and not a strategy.

On where to stick, it depends on your taste. If you think you are fine taking the risks in a parlay, then continue. But don't focus on that betting method but rather on the sports itself. Knowledge is the best foundation. It's risky to just choose random odds just because it's safe in our eyes to form a parlay.

In my opinion multi bets are much more risky than single bets, because you combine multiple bets into one. Sometimes when I am really sure about the some games I combine a few bets for higher payouts, but in general I try to stick to single bets. Personally I prefer winning more often with lower payouts. When I started with sports betting I used multi bets much more often than these days. One good way to use mutli bets is when taking part in some giveaways where there is a minimum odds of 2 or higher required. So combining many low risk bets into one can make it eligible for free bets while still having a good chance of winning.
