    Hedge for a small amount on each side to guarantee small profit if you miss.

    Maybe like 200 on each other side so ull get a small profit

    IF you wanna guarantee winning a few bucks

    play $500 on the first game

    if your parlay is still alive after the first game then play $1000 on the second game

    no need to make two bets if you don't have to

    if i were you i'd let the first game ride and hedge on the second game only

    Always take the hedge if you have a chance, take the money in my opinion and promise that you walk away with something.

    I'm in quite a pickle too...Put money on UConn to win it all while in Vegas, to pay out $250. If Kentucky beats UConn, I take 3rd in my bracket. I'm thinking to take Kentucky +145 to win the tourney, and then if they make it to the finals, I will put some money on the underdog...what a hedge of a hedge.
