    12 Team Parlay Pending, 8 wins in the books. What to do?

    12 Team Parlay #XXXXXXXXX (Placed by Web)
    (136) Florida -9½ (-110) Sat@3:30p
    (138) Notre Dame -4½ (-110) Sat@3:30p
    (178) Miami (Florida) -3 (+115) Sat@7:30p
    (173) Oklahoma -3 (-125) Sat@8:00p

    (201) Jacksonville Jaguars +9 (-115) Sun@1:00p
    (203) Oakland Raiders +3½ (-115) Sun@1:00p
    (974) Baltimore Orioles +145* Sat@7:05p
    (976) Kansas City Royals -145* Sat@7:10p
    (955) Florida Marlins +190* Sat@7:05p
    (959) Milwaukee Brewers vs. (960) Cincinnati Reds Over 8½ (-110) Sat@7:10p
    [/COLOR]
    (199) Kansas City Chiefs +300 Sun@1:00p
    (197) Chicago Bears +250 Sun@1:00p
    Risk US$ 1.00 to win US$ 15817.39*

    So I do a $1 long shot parlay everyday to limit my number of plays on days with a lot of action and placed this one for shits and giggles. 8 wins are in the books with the following 4 plays pending:

    (201) Jacksonville Jaguars +9 (-115) Sun@1:00p (@ Jets)
    (203) Oakland Raiders +3½ (-115) Sun@1:00p (@ Bills)
    (199) Kansas City Chiefs +300 Sun@1:00p (@ Lions)
    (197) Chicago Bears +250 Sun@1:00p (@ Saints)

    Is there some way to hedge a parlay with 4 games pending? I've never been in this position before and I'm not even sure if it's possible to hedge with so many possibilities remaining. Any advice is welcome.

    no way to hedge unless you have one game left. And all your games are at 1. You always need a hedge game. Cardinal rule of betting parlays.

    Ask the sportsbook you placed the bet at to reduce it to a 8 team parlay and see what they say.

    No way to hedge with 4 oustanding games.

    Your $1 parlay as it stands right now with the 8 for 8 is worth $322.26 (that would've been your payout had you just played those 8 with those specific ML's).

    Far cry from 16K. It's those last 4 that are making it a major score...............just pray a lot between now and 4pm

    BOL
