Thanks for the explanation. It makes sense to me IF what you are saying bout the odds is true. At Intertops though, I know they multiple the decimal odds, so I think it works out to be the exact same in the end (with higher variance, of course).

In other words, if you pick 2 games that individually would each pay you exactly 2:1, they give you 4:1 on your parlay.

The ones I do are usually BIG favorites in football, and I pick them straight up. For example, this week, I bet $20 on this parlay (straight up winners):
Redskins, Seahawks, and Falcons.

The individual odds were:
1.125, 1.5, and 1.312. Multiply that out, and you get 2.214:1 total odds on my bet.

Now, whether or not those individual odds were fair, I don't know.... it's possible they adjust them for the parlays and I've just never noticed.
