How Do Pushes Work on PrizePicks?

One thing that gets too frustrating in the sports betting world is the fact that every sportsbook can independently set their own rules and scoring. That frustration can be even worse when it’s a DFS platform such as PrizePicks. If I’m ONLY betting parlays how do pushes grade? We’re going to go over that in this article.

Power Play

On PrizePicks you can either make a power play or a flex play. In the power play, every leg must hit for it to win. If one of those legs is a push (tie), it is graded as follows:

• 4 Pick Power Play becomes a 3 Pick Power Play
• 3 Pick Power Play becomes a 2 Pick Power Play
• 2 Pick Power Play with one correct and one tie pays out 1.5x
• 2 Pick Power Play with one loss and one tie pays nothing

The general odds for a PrizePicks power play are as follows:

• 4-Pick Power with 4 correct picks  = 10x the entry fee
• 3-Pick Power with 3 correct picks = 5x the entry fee
• 2-Pick Power with 2 correct picks = 3x the entry fee

Flex Pay

A flex play becomes more complicated because some of the legs can lose and you can still get a payout. If a flex play has a leg that is a push (tie), it is graded as follows:

• 6-Pick Flex -> 5-Pick Flex
• 5-Pick Flex → 4-Pick Flex
• 4-Pick Flex → 3-Pick Flex
• 3-Pick Flex → 2-Pick Power

The general flex play payouts are as follows:

• 6-Pick Flex with 6 correct picks = 25x the entry fee
• 6-Pick Flex with 5 correct picks = 2x the entry fee
• 6-Pick Flex with 4 correct picks = 0.4x the entry fee
• 5-Pick Flex with 5 correct picks = 10x the entry fee
• 5-Pick Flex with 4 correct picks = 2x the entry fee
• 5-pick Flex with 3 correct picks = 0.4x the entry fee
• 4-Pick Flex with 4 correct picks = 5x the entry fee
• 4-Pick Flex with 3 correct picks = 1.5x the entry fee
• 3-Pick Flex with 3 correct picks = 2.25x the entry fee
• 3-Pick Flex with 2 correct picks = 1.25x the entry fee
