    Can I get in trouble

    I got a 6 team parlay riding on yanks to close the deal. If I bet on red sox with the same account will they ban me?

    No way, you're hedging, but I would get someone elses opinion first

    Of course not, I do it all the time when I need to hedge . I suggest you play red sox by the way.


    Appreciate if you can send your 7 points this way. Thanks

    The parlay pays 475 should I bet that much on the sox since it's free money

    Just bet $240 on red sox. So your guaranteed a profit no matter what. So you don't even have to watch the game, your already a winner.

    I would say it comes down to whoever you feel is really going to win this game. If you think the Sox will than maybe that much, but then you leave yourself with no profit if the Yankees win or if you think the Yankees win maybe throw 200 on the Sox and if the Yanks win you win 275 and if the Sox win then you win (200-Parlay Risk amount)

    If you like Yankees just bet your original play amount was on the sox. Then you either break even or win

    You originally bet on Yankees for a reason, so when you hedge I would make sure it is more lucrative if they win. What I would do is hedge such that it was equivalent to having one unit (or whatever unit structure you use) on the Yankees and the rest of the money in your pocket.

    Hell no. They would love for you to give some of that money back with a loser
