I've noticed on Bodog that sometimes there is a fight that has a red box around it. Does anyone know what the deal is with that? Thanks in advance.

Means you can only bet it straight up and not apart of parlays.

thats not true because I have parlayed plenty of fights that have the red box around them. I dont really know what the red box means, i have have a parlay right now with red box guys. hughes is in my parlay and i think st pierre was in red box, and he is in my parlay too.

Hmmmm. Yep I went and tried it and it would have let me place the bet. Now I am even more stumped!

Red box events have reduced maximum bet limits.

Thanks OSU! I didn't even think about actually looking there.

Red box means no parlay AND reduced maximums.
It doesn't mean you can't ever parlay them, just not while they're circled. So for example they might have put teh GSP line up where you could parlay it, and then because they took a lot of unbalanced action, they reduced the limit and set parlays off. If the action balances up some, they'll remove the red box.
Usually means there's an extenuating circumstance -- i.e. in the NFL games usually get marked in red if there is bad weather or an injury, etc.
