Correlation

Correlation in betting refers to when the outcome of one bet affects the probability of another. This is especially relevant in same-game parlays and prop combinations.

Positive correlation example: A quarterback throwing for 300+ yards is correlated with his receivers having high receiving yards.

Negative correlation example: If a running back dominates, passing attempts may decrease.

Understanding correlation helps you: - Identify when sportsbooks underprice correlated parlays - Avoid stacking bets that sink together - Build smarter multi-leg wagers
