    Steelers ML? Help!

    I have the Ravens ML at the end of my 6 team parlay. Do I take Steelers ML +140 for guaranteed cash or let it ride? Need help quick!

    Hedging is for gardeners. Let it ride. If it's not life changing money and you felt you were on the right side of it before when you made the parlay, stick with it. Ravens can be sketchy against the run but they will stack the box against a bad back up QB in Leftwich and are going against 3 dinged up RB's. Leftwich 0-6 as a starter since being a backup, Steelers have never beat Ravens without Big Ben. All "square" thinking...whatever. Ravens have this game on a platter and will lose only if they beat themselves. I'm on Ravens ML and the under FWIW. BOL with whatever you decide!

    I wouldn't think about hedging unless your getting at least 10 to 1 on your original Parlay

    Same boat I have TWO 10-1 Parlays and a 3-1, 2 on Ravens ML and one of Ravens +3... Steeler ML just went to +150, were talking 20 units between these 3 plays. I hate hedging but this may be a must in this situation.

    Why the fck do people make big parlays with one game played later and then ask if they should hedge? It's simple don't add the later game if you are going to hedge later if you win the first plays. You are just paying double juice. Books love players like that.

    Depends on $'s at risk, potential payout and what kind of day you had.

    Strong day, let it ride.

    Weak day, take the steelers + 3 to at least capture your investment or a small profit

    I'm on the Ravens - 3 myself. gl

    Same situation for me. Two open parlays on Ravens for $1260.

    Should I hedge $600 on Steelers? If Ben was playing I would no doubt.

    Man 8 teamer!! I usually let it ride but I would hedge it would suck to ride it all day and lose it on 1 play I would hedge about 20%.

    $1300 or so riding on Raiders up a few units for the day so I threw a $200 bet on Steeler +150. B Left is better than a lot of people are giving him credit for. Still think the ravens get it done for me to go up big, but worst case winning a few hundred sounds just fine to me
