    what would you do?
    So I nailed 3 of my 4 plays on my parlay ticket. leaving 1 game undecided until tonight. its the cle wash game I have under 186.5. which would complete my 4/4 parlay. tickets pays 1400.

    would you gamble an play out the ticket or play it safe and put a wager over 186.5 for a sure win

    I'd take the sure win and guarantee I made some cash. i know others, like Big Bollocks, would say the opposite but sure money is my favorite kind. I like to hedge in these situations.

        Absolutely, sexymit, particularly when you consider that he has an under play on a team that loves to go into OT.

              Whether it goes over or under you will still win... It depends on how much you put on the parlay... Sometimes I would just bet the parlay that way you wouldn't be out any money. You would just break even but in your case a big payout... That is tough. Gl whatever you do...

                  Ride the parlay. If you believed it when you made it, why would think differently now? Guarantees of winning a couple hundred vs. $1400 .. let it roll b-yatch.

                    I would wager the original amount and put it for the OVER.. This way if my parlay doesn't go thru I don't lose anything. It was a fun ride.
