What Is A Multileg Entry?

Multileg contests containing multiple selections—two or more—in the same ticket.

Since such entries deal with several selections, the odds of all the picks are multiplied, giving players a boosted payout.

For example, let’s say you want to contest on two spreads, each priced at standard odds (-110).

If you placed both picks in a multileg contest, the odds would total +264.

Risking $100 on this entry would earn you a profit of $264 if both teams covered the spread.

However, if you placed both entries as single entries and risked $100 on each, you would end up winning a total of $181.82.

This is significantly less than the $264 profit from the multileg contest, and this doesn’t even account for the extra $100 that you risked with the two single entries.

That being said, multileg entries are high-risk, high-reward ventures. For you to win your multileg entries, all your selections must be accurate.

Just one inaccurate selection and the entire entry will be graded as a loss.

So it’s quite easy to lose an 8-game multileg entries because of a single, unnecessary pick.

Multileg Entries

To build a same-game multileg entry, all your selections need to be drawn from a single game.

For example, you can combine a moneyline entry with a game totals entry.

Underdog Fantasy isn’t a sportsbook, so your same-game multileg entry options are severely limited.

However, you can technically create a same-game multileg entry by picking players who are playing in the same game.

For example, if the Kansas City Chiefs are playing against the Cleveland Browns.

You can create an NFL same-game multileg entry that contains players from one or both teams, like the one below:

• Travis Kelce Higher 89.5 Receiving Yards
• Patrick Mahomes Higher 290.5 Passing Yards
• Baker Mayfield Higher 266.5 Passing Yards

Player Multileg Entries

A player contest is a multileg that exclusively focuses on player propositions.

Though you can’t place other types of entries on Underdog Fantasy, users who are into propositions will be pleased by this alternative.

Most of the individual selections will deal with common player-focused stats like passing yards, receiving yards, rushing yards, receptions, goals, shots on goals, etc.

When creating a player multileg entry on the site, you’ll need to choose a minimum of two-player propositions, while your multileg entry is capped at five picks.

Here’s a perfect example of a player multileg entry you can build on Underdog Fantasy:

• Tom Brady Higher 266.5 Passing Yards
• Karim Benzema Higher 2.5 Shots
• Cooper Kupp Lower 7.5 Receptions
• Luka Doncic Higher 31.5 Points
• Travis Kelce Higher 89.5 Receiving Yards

Since this is a pick 5 (a 5-leg entry), if all your predictions are accurate, you’ll earn a 20x payout.

So if you risk $50, you’ll win $950, and your total payout will be $1,000.

Moneyline Multileg Entry

In a moneyline multileg entry, all the selected teams should win their respective games outright.

This is a great option if you’re looking to pool together a couple of lowly-priced favorites.

Unfortunately, you can’t build this type of multileg entry on Underdog Fantasy.

Point Spread Multileg Entries

Point spread entries purely focus on the spread.

In such an entry, each of your picks simply needs to cover the spread.

Favorites need to beat the handicap, while underdogs have the cushion of losing, but their margin of defeat shouldn’t be greater than the spread.

Again, this type of multileg entry isn’t available on Underdog Fantasy.

Higher/Lower Multileg Contest

Higher/lower entries deal with picks that focus on game totals.

Any entry on the higher needs to surpass the bookies’ line, while in the case of a lower, the combined total points need to be less than the set line.

On Underdog Fantasy, you can’t place a higher/lower multileg entry.

Multileg Entries Strategy

If you want to reap from multileg entries, you need to be cunning in your approach.

The easiest and best way to do so is by using the right propositions strategies.

To help all types of players, we’ve discussed a few key strategies below:

Opt For Fewer Selections

When you stuff your multileg entries with too many needless picks, you end up increasing your risk.

Remember, one of those additional selections could end up being the cause of your entry’s downfall.

The best thing to do is play it safe by minimizing your selections whenever possible.

Multileg entries with around 2-4 picks aren’t just safe enough, but they also have a higher chance of winning when compared to entries with 6+ selections.

Build Correlated Contests

If you want to boost the odds of your entry without sacrificing too much risk, you can do so by creating correlated entries.

Essentially, in such entries, the result of one selection is closely tied to that of another selection.

So if one of the picks turns out to be accurate, it’s very likely that the other will also end up being accurate.

For example, let’s say you want to back Team A in a soccer match. Many of the team’s forwards are out, but you still expect the team to win the game.

The most likely outcome is that Team A will win the game, but it will end up being a low-scoring victory.

In such a scenario, you can build the following 2-leg entry:

• Team A Moneyline
• Lower 2.5 goals

If the team wins 2-0, you’ll end up profiting from this multileg entry.

Hedge & Cash-Out Your Entries Whenever Possible

When your entry is down to the last pick, you can hedge it by backing a contrary selection instead of being greedy.

This will create a win-win scenario where you’re guaranteed a profit regardless of the result of that last game.

Most fantasy operators also offer cash outs nowadays. If you’re offered a substantial amount, consider cashing out to secure a profit instead of letting the entry ride.
