    St Louis - Washington

    I am not huge fan of parlays but once in a blue moon I will go down the list and pick 5-6 games and put small amount on them hoping to get lucky.
    Today I played 7 game parlay for $65 to win $5k and somehow hit all of them, the last game on the ticket is St Louis - UW, my play is UW -2.5.

    I know that I got to hedge it, but would like some of your opinion on how much should I play? $1,000 $2,000, $3,000?

    Problem now is the point spread dropped to wash -1.5. You hedge with st louis and washington wins by 2 you're screwed.

    Unless you can buy points then you can buy Slu up to +3.

    I am thinking about buying only 0.5 point and getting SL +2 and hoping that UW doesn't win by 2 points

    Even if you can't buy points, I'd risk it. Saint Louis' team is relatively intact compared to UW from last year when UW lost @Saint Louis by 13.

    Forgot Mitchell is out for StL. Both teams missing their 2 best players from last year, should be competitive.

    Something else to consider. UW coach Lorenzo Romar used to coach at StLouis a few years back, and he will be motivating his team after getting embarrassed last year.

    I remember watching that game, and being shocked. StL was up 50-25 at the half.

    I took SL +3 -147 for $2k. Still hoping that my huskies win and I take $3k profit.
    Huskies were fired up before the season started, had two few tough losses, Ohio, Seton Hall in ot, and Colorado this is the home game and hopefully they can pick it up, get 3pts shots working again.

    Lot of juice there. I might have risked being middled at that price. Maybe throw a little on St Louis ML?

    *disclaimer* I'm not a fan of the UW Huskies.

    Congrats on your winning! And don't have that mindset where "Ahh I should have never hedged I would have won more" you made the right and smart move by hedging and hedging will always mean winning so great job on listening to everyone and cashing! BOL to you in the future.
