Happy day-before-baseball day, everyone. My focus for this article will be around a site called “PrizePicks,” a new way to make picks.
The setup for PrizePicks is unique — it allows players to stack individual picks in a parlay and collect based on the number of entries:
- Two-pick entry pays 2.5x (max entry: $400)
- Three-pick entry pays 5x (max entry: $200)
- Four-pick entry pays 10x (max entry: $100)
In addition, there is a “flex play” option for selections of four — you can choose the flex play, and if three of your four picks hit, it pays back 1.5 times. If you select flex play, a perfect 4-for-4 only pays off five times.
Below are my debut PrizePicks for PGA, NASCAR, MLB and LoL. As always, reach out to me with any questions.
