    How should I hedge this?

    Originally an open parlay with one slot, I had given up on it when I thought the marlins would score a 4th run and plugged in Dbacks for the hell of it. Was kinda hoping Dbacks would lose last night so I could feel better about them tonight.

    Pending 6 Team Parlay
    Win 5/24/13 7:10pm MLB Baseball 956 Cincinnati Reds -1 -105* vs Chicago Cubs (S Feldman - R must Start B Arroyo - R must Start)
    Win 5/24/13 10:15pm MLB Baseball 963 Colorado Rockies Over 3½ -115* vs San Francisco Giants (T Chatwood - R must Start T Lincecum - R must Start)
    Win 5/24/13 7:05pm MLB Baseball 966 Toronto Blue Jays Over 4 -135* vs Baltimore Orioles (C Tillman - R must Start S Nolin - L must Start)
    Cancelled 5/24/13 8:10pm MLB Baseball 979 Miami Marlins Under 3 -115* vs Chicago White Sox (T Koehler - R must Start J Danks - L must Start)
    5/24/13 3:43pm Win 5/24/13 7:00pm Props Baseball 4968 DET M.Cabrera total bases -140* vs MIN J.Mauer total bases (Fixed Price)
    5/24/13 10:02pm Pending 5/25/13 10:10pm MLB Baseball 914 Arizona Diamondbacks -138* vs San Diego Padres (A Cashner - R must Start W Miley - L must Start)

    I guess the question is, would you hedge this? I'm probably gonna let it ride. In Wade I trust.

    You should put the amount you bet and to win to decide whether or not to hedge. Also, padres are struggling after winning 11/14. Arizona is starting to do better after struggling but dbacks fail to give him run supports. I'd say if it's to win 700 or more it's worth hedging if not just let it ride.

    IF I were to hedge, I'd likely go with SD +1.5. More expensive than hedging with the ML, but leaves you the opportunity for a middle.

    After using a parlay calc, looks like the payout odds are +1778. Is that accurate? Depending on original bet size (compared to your usual units), it might be worth a hedge.

    I look at it like this if you have 50$ and its going to pay 1000$. Hedge it for 200$-300$. You guarantee yourself either 6x or 14x return on your money regardless. Ill take either ROI anyday of the week. Good luck!!
