What are Delaware Parlay Cards? Types of Delaware Parlay Cards

What are Delaware Parlay Cards?

Delaware was the first state to legalize sports betting, but it’s only available at casinos. Online and mobile betting isn’t offered the way it is in other states that have legalized sports gambling. Delaware’s alternative is Delaware parlay cards, which are offered by the Delaware Lottery. These cards can be found at bars, stores, and casinos. 

How do the Cards Work?

Delaware parlay cards have fixed odds located on the back of each card. Each card has a $2 minimum bet and must include at least three legs to make the parlay.

Who can Play Delaware Parlay Cards?

Anyone 21+ in Delaware that can present a photo I.D. and a Social Security card upon collection can play.
