I think I'll go for parlays, although I know very much that straight bets increased the chances of winning since it's only individual bets, but the financial implication can lead someone to easy addiction from chasing lost capital for recovery if you lose, but I'm parlays, you can try out your luck several times and not even spend as much money as possible when you use straight bets.
You have more betting options and a lower probability of winning; you should bet correctly on all your bets to get a good win.
I once placed a random multiple bet with $3 and took home about $450. I know I had a good dose of luck, but by playing games considered low-odd and therefore with high odds, I got this.
Unfortunately, this isn't always the case.
Do you consider what you'll lose if you used straight bets and it doesn't go your way? For me somehow it's a trigger for addiction and big financial loss when you ever a losing streak while using straight bets. It crosses the line between gambling for fun and gambling for profits sharply.
Anytime I'm gambling on straight bets, I'm surely not gambling for fun because I'm always prompted to use funds in not ready to lose therefore I'm more about recovering my money with profits more than actually gambling for the fun
