    Hedge Advice on A Parlay

    So, after a day of drinking and watching NCAAF, I bet $5,100 to win $4K and change on the Bears $ line parlayed with the Texans $ line. Barring the "Any Given Sunday" theory, the Texans should win this. However, after seeing people's Packers, Ravens, Steelers bets go up in flames, nothing is automatic. Current Jets $ line is +330. Do I wait until right before the game and throw $1,500 on the Jets $ line? Throw some on Jets +8 and hope for a nice middle? I would be interested to see SBR's opinions on this. Thanks, boys!

    You got texas ml and u liked it, dont second guess. roll with it. 5100 is a lot, but you put it down for a reason. If you really want to hedge, do the jets ml before game. You wont have to risk nearly as much for the hedge. May get a line as high at +375

    Yeah, public will be hammering Texans after taking a beating today. It will take some bizzaro miracle for the Jets to win. No Revis, Holmes, Keller, etc. Sanchez can't win on his own. I'm leaning a small hedge with Jets ML in case Tebow has been sacrificing goats to his god.

    Just looked...one of my square books is offering Jets ml +400 and Jets +10. U have a LOT of options now. hell even consider a tease nyj +16 and ncaaf/nfl next week (though this over extends you still...but a great middle there.

    Jets $ line rose to +400. Put $1,200 on it to hedge. I got Texans $ line at -360, it closed at -550. I will take beating the closer and hedging with that all day. Espicially when the Jets had a shot at the end.
