| | Las Vegas SUN: Jeff Haney hunts down the best values available on parlay cards for those wagering on such a losing ... |
 | | Parlay-card wagers differ from so-called "off the board" parlays in that all selections must be made from those brightly colored, eye-catching cardboard tickets that casinos issue each week during football season. |
 | | Because parlay cards are printed and distributed in the early or middle part of the week and the point spreads printed on them remain stagnant - as opposed to the dynamic lines on the betting board - gamblers can sometimes find bargains on games in which the point spread has been adjusted. |
 | | While some sports books offer a wide selection of parlay cards - usually containing permutations of the phrases, "super," "mega," and "teaser" in their titles - they all offer a standard card in which ties are either impossible (due to the use of half-points in the point spreads listed) or considered no action. |
