    Anyone know which casino has the best odds on parlay card downtown? Is it correct that I would be better off calling my parlay bet at window? What is the maximum amount of parlay games you can pick at the window? Can I mix and match moneyline/pointspread/over-under bets? What is the drink ticket minimum downtown these days?

    Thanks it's my first weekend in town during the NFL regular season and I'm a bit of a noob.

    I can't help you with which casino is the best DT, but as far as your other questions, whether you're better off calling your parlay at the window depends. The cards are printed up ahead of time with the opening lines. If a line moves against your pick from the opening line, you may be better off playing the parlay card. Typically though you are better off calling it at the window. I'm sure you already know this as well, but try to find a parlay card where pushes aren't losers. I haven't played parlay cards in a while, but IIRC there are some books that's the case.

    It has been my experience that Plaza has the best odds on single games, but I don't know if that would also transfer to parleys.
    I can tell you the Cal offers no drink coupons in their book.

    All Boyd parlay cards come out on Thursday and they come in pink, yellow, white, tan, and green. I think it is either the yellow or white one that ties win. I love them but have only won big once. But they are fun and if you thought giving 7 was a good bet, only giving 2 on the parlay card MUST be a winner. Not so fast my friend.

    I have had better luck betting 5 - 7 @ 5$'s multiple times. But you can't resist the 12/12 or 14/14 payouts. After a while ALL the bets look good (especially when both teams are given points!!)

    They are a lot of fun for me for 2 or 5 $'s and keep you entertained through MNF (hopefully). And as Joe says, no drink coupons. Just another way for "the man" to rip us off and send us back to the BH Bar for video poker and football.....

    Good luck.
